Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

bobby:

I ve downloaded IH2 and installed it.
Additional images are showing up BUT WHEN PRESS ON IT ORIGINAL IMAGE SHOWS UP!!
Is there way to make sure that additional original image enlarge and not 1 image added.
I am sure some one run into it but there is 600 pages and I am not sure if I have time to read it.
Thank you

When posting bugs/issues, it's a WHOLE LOT more helpful to resolve them if you post details. Just saying "it's broken" or "doesn't work" does not provide nearly enough information to help YOU resolve YOUR issue.

Please provide as MUCH information as possible including:

  • The version of Zen Cart you are running
  • The version of Image Handler 3 you are running (you can see this by going to “Admin > Tools > Image Handler3” – the version is displayed in the upper left hand side)
  • Any other add-ons you may have also installed
  • Hosting/server information (PHP versions, mySQL versions, hosting provider etc)
  • The EXACT error/issue you are experiencing
  • AND if you're REALLY detail oriented, tell us the install sequence/method you used to install Image Handler 3.
  • Post a link (not a screen print) to a specific product/product listing page where the issue you are experiencing can be seen (Please DO NOT make folks fish through your site looking for an example of your issue)

AND this last point is important.. The volunteers who help here need to SEE what you see LIVE. A screenprint really isn’t good enough.

Re: Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

The last version of IH2 includes the .htaccess file so there should be no need to create it at all.. (and yes it's the same one included in the images directory in Zen Cart v1.3.9)

kobra8:

Thanks Junkie, I change in 666 byt I don't have .htaccess file.
I will put thet file manual, but can you please tell what to write in thet file.
Is this o.k.???

...................

$Id: .htaccess 1105 2005-04-04 22:05:35Z birdbrain $

This is used with Apache WebServers

The following blocks direct HTTP requests in this directory recursively

For this to work, you must include the parameter 'Limit' to the AllowOverride configuration

Example:

#<Directory "/usr/local/apache/htdocs">

AllowOverride Limit

'All' with also work. (This configuration is in your apache/conf/httpd.conf file)

This does not affect PHP include/require functions

Example: http://server/catalog/includes/application_top.php will not work

<Files *.php>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
</Files>
....................

Design75:

@ kobra8

this is what sould be in the .htaccess

deny everything

<FilesMatch ".*">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all
</FilesMatch>

but now allow just certain necessary files:

<FilesMatch ".*.(jpe?g|JPE?G|gif|GIF|png|PNG|swf|SWF)$" >
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</FilesMatch>

IndexIgnore /
Options -Indexes

Re: Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

I had to restore my site as it crashed after I tried to uninstall and reinstall IH2. Luckily I had a recent backup so my site is up and running again.

However, I'm unable to upload my bmz_cache folder. I've even tried to make a new folder with the name bmz_cache for IH2 to use but I'm not allowed to do that either.

It all began to go wrong when I read that you should change the bmz_cache folder's properties. When I did that the whole bmz-cache folder disappeared.

Any idea how I can get my bmz_cache folder uploaded again ?

Cheers,

Kim

Re: Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

Honestly this sounds like an issue with permissions on your host.. I suggest contacting your web host and see if they can walk you through re-creating the bmz_cache folder with the correct permissions.

are you trying to change the properties to 755 or 777--depends on host provider which they use

and are you doing it thru c-panel/file manager or from an ftp client

You need to post your question in the correct support thread.. You are running IH3, not IH2..

> DivaVocals:

Is it soup yet???

Why yes kids it is..:laugh:

For those who've asked, **Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x** is now available for your viewing enjoyment..
http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=1910

Along with the new name there is a new support thread for **Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x**..
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=178972

Please post **Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x **related questions in the **Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x** support thread (not this thread).. This allows questions and answers for Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x to stay all together in the RIGHT support thread..
(you will be {gently} reminded should you "forget" this:smile:)

THIS thread should continue to serve as the place to address all Image Handler 2 for v1.3.x questions.. Please DON'T post Image Handler 2 for v1.3.x questions on the** Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x** support thread.
(though hopefully you will upgrade to Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x and join us on the Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x support thread )

Thanks for understanding..

Anyway.. carry on.. Enjoy the new version..

Also ...

One last thing all the spaces between your domain name is not necessary.. (kinda makes it a PITA to get to your URL) If you don't want search engines to pick up your URL, simply adding spaces as so http:// qisahn . com is sufficient to prevent your site from being indexed..

Provide the requested info to the correct support thread, and the community can help..

Hi DivaVocals, i really do appreciate your reply and comments one this. To explain myself, i was running version 2 prior to asking the question.. then i read through the thread and found a version 3 so i upgraded and i posted on a v3 support thread.

Sorry for the confusion. :frusty:

Sorted. Somehow my Core FTP lite wasn't able to show my bmz_cache with it's new properties. However, in another file manager I could see the folder and correct it's properties. So now I have my bmz-cache back again :-)

Re: Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

I just installed Image Handler 2 on two different sites. The first one is working GREAT!

The second one uses additional images and, none of the additional images show up. I went to the admin and told it to uninstall IH and now my additional images are back.

Any idea why this would work so well on everything but additional images?

Would be nice if the IH2 documentation pages mentioned that there was an IH3. I had no clue IH2 had been replaced.

Secondly. There is nothing in the IH3 docs that I can find that talks about how to upgrade from IH2 to IH3, nor methods to uninstall IH2.

The only way I see to guarantee this will work is to start over with a virgin zencart install which is not an option.

Did I miss something in the docs somewhere?

Re: Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

Old mods never list the existence of a newer version. It's always a good idea to look for a newer version when upgrading. I do an advanced search at the beginning of each month with the Date From set to the preceding month. For example, at the beginning of June, I set the Date From at 05/01/2011 and clicked search. That resulted in ten modules that were added or updated in the month of May.

On the IH2 front, go to Admin >> Tools >> Image Handler to remove it. This is also stated in the readme for IH3 under installation. Installation instructions often include upgrade instructions for those with previous versions.:yes:

Ok, pardon my last post. I was a blind idiot and didn't see it :)

IH3 is now installed, resizing is working, additional images is working but... The hover on zoom is NOT working.

Back when in installed IH2 on another site, i found the problem was the custom templates dir had not been updated. That is not the case here. And when doing a view source on the pages, there is no javascript there. Whatever is suppose to include it isn't.

The site is here http://www.thehookahstore.com

In my last post I said the hover zoom wasn't working.. Well, in some places it is...

In side boxes it works, Also purchased works.. pretty much everything works except the product listing. No zoom on product listing nor new or featured products.

You may not be happy with the news, but you need to now post in the thread for IH3 if you have a problem with it.

**Would be nice if the IH2 **

documentation pages mentioned that there was an IH3. I had no clue IH2 had been replaced.
The site moderators will not let me update IH2 JUST to say there is an IH3.. (dbltoe is right it's not a standard practice to do this anyway)

In SEVERAL places in THIS support thread I personally have posted more than a few notices about the IH3 release and the fact that there is a new support thread for IH3.. (if you look at the posts on the previous page JUST above your original post you'll see posts where I do this again..) Not sure what more there is I could have done to get the word out..:lookaroun

The only way I see to guarantee this will work is to start over with a virgin zencart install which is not an option.

**Did I miss something in the docs somewhere?**I assume by your subsequent posts here and on the IH3 support thread that you re-read the readme which does have detailed upgrade instructions which do indeed include IH2 UNINSTALL instructions..

Re: Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

Hi..I posted before but was told it was for IH3 which I'm not trying to use as I have 1.3.8a, so I'm trying to use IH2, so hopefully I'm supposed to repost here:huh:

I have installed 3 times, different ways, deleted "everything" to see if it was something I did...but I still can't see any choices under admin/images/ ..there are no IH choices at the bottom. I can't find an answer to that and I'm sure there is an easy answer.
I've renamed things as told to in the read me file...
what could be wrong?

someone suggested corrupted files, but it would be the first time and I did download from the zencart addons. It seems like something isn't working on the admin side...but what do I know??/
