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

Going crazy trying to get Imagehandler to work right! It partly works which is the confusing part. Hard to put in words so if you could look I would reeeeeeally appreciate it.

http://www.seasidescraps.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=66_69&products_id=181

See the top image, click for larger image. You get a background with a small x (image not found basically). BUT if you select the lower image, the one the hover over popup works on. It DOES show the larger image (zoom). What are we doing wrong? Im trying to help this person get the store done for easter. I can install add mods etc. But cant trouble shoot zen yet (not that experienced with it) Ive triple checked the files and the code all is well as far as I can tell. Please someone help us!

I know nothing about zen just have installed it before and run phpbb etc. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Would image size effect this mod? I ntoiced something just now.

The top image that doesn work with imagehandler. Its 150x150. The lower image that does work is 100x100. Could it be that imagehandler cant resize 150x150 as its already max size and therefore giving me the image not found result?:dontgetit

Xtreeme, that's the exact problem I was having. If you'll notice on your site, if you scrool the page to where the image is in the top part of the browser, it will work just fine, but shows an error.
Go here, http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...t=28859&page=3. and copy and paste the 2 files shown there, and your problems will be over. At least it done the job for me.
Good luck.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!:clap:

Ill try this right now (fingers crossed that it works).:cool:

If that's the original size of your image, it won't resize to a larger image. Try resizing it with an image editor (to 400x400, or so), then it will resize it down, but keep in mind that IH2 doesn't resize medium images.....yet.

O.K. before I do anything.......let me see if I got this right?

I want 3 image sizes. say 75x75 100x100 and 150x150
For them to zoom I just say upload the max size or larger (150 or 200) and then imagehandler will shrink it so to speak. But it doesnt enlarge....is that right. Told ya Im a noob to zen. (if it werent for phpbb Id be even more lost)

Yep. That's it. Your biggest image (if you just want to enlarge the same image) will go to default size, then IH2 will downsize them for the pages, then show the Medium size to the viewer on mouse-over of the small image, then when the viewer is on the page that shows the medium size image, and clicks on it, it will then, show the original size as large.

If you want to show 3 images for 1 product, then put a small image (img1.gif) in the default place, then a _MED image in Medium place (img1_MED.gif) This will now show as your hover image. Then the 3rd (_LRG) image in the Large place. This will be what the viewer sees when they click on the medium image.

OK armed with this info Im giving it another go. Thanks so much for helping me I was just going in circles till now.

Any time. Glad I could be of some help.

OK I got them at 600x600 and its showing same issue. Should I try those two files now?

I just checked the code in those two files and it appears the same as what I already have. Im running the newest Imagehandler.........did he update it maybe to include that already?

This may sound dumb but could it be something I have set wrong in the admin>tools>imagehandler2

Don't know. Could be. Maybe in Admin/configuration/images ? I found all IH2 and Zens' sizes have to match up with each other, or it just doesn't work right. I among countless others that I've read about, also had to uninstall/reinstall (some more than once), and everything seemed to fix itself, for some. Sorry. I'm no expert on IH2, as I just got introduced to it last week, and spent most of the week getting it to work with IE. It ALWAYS worked with FF. I just let you know what fixed mine.
And, it's very possible that it was updated since I got mine, last week. I haven't looked.

well Ill try that code anyways and if that doesnt work Ill reinstall image handler and see if that helps. Ill let you know if I get it working and what worked. Thanks for helping.

Sure. I just hope I did help. All I know is it works on my site.......after a week of hair pulling. Check it out....in action, with no errors in IE, although FF loads faster. https://www.linenspace.com The towels has 2 images (to show weave).

When you go to "Tools" and then "Image Handler" and then go to the product your having issues with, what sizes does it show for each size, and how many images do you have uploaded for that image?

"what sizes does it show for each size, and how many images do you have uploaded for that image?"

Ok using the link I gave that image has 3.

She has them set as small:100x100 medium:100x100 and large:600x600
All 3 images show in the tools imagehandler.

Is it cause she has 2 sets of 100 maybe?

There's something wrong with your popup image function, as the img link is blank:

<a href="javascript:window.close()"><img src="" alt="FlipTheme - Birthday Ball - Click Image to Close" title=" FlipTheme - Birthday Ball - Click Image to Close " width="100" height="100" /></a>

I would make sure that these files for IH2 have been uploaded correctly:

includes/modules/main_product_image.php
includes/modules/pages/popup_image/header_php.php

Now, the reason you have two 100 sized images, is that you probably have the same settings in "Admin", "Images" for the small images and the product info images.

Ya I noticed the image source was blank on the ones that didnt work. I reuploaded those files still have same problem. I also uploaded the other two files mentioned earlier. Still nothing. Whats odd is it half works. I tried opera and it shows same problem so its not just IE in this case. Guess Ill have to uninstall and reinstall it. Will all the images disapear? I backed up the shops folder and its database to be safe.

To uninstall I just go to tools-> imagehandler2 then remove there (remove from database)......then reupload the files overwriting originals. Is that right? This time Ill choose GD instead of imagemagic just incase that is the issue. Even though Im certain the server has imagemagic maybe its some odd issue.

Does that sound good?

Xtreeme, you're getting closer......no errors in IE, now. So, now, all you have to do is make ZenCart and Image Handler to work together on size. I think, maybe on the top image you are concerned about not working at all, is due to the size you have it set to in ZenCart. In Admin/configuration/images try settings..........

small image width: 100
small image height: 100

Product info-image width: 300
Product info-image height: 300

IH large image maximum width: 600
IH large image maximum height: 600

Then upload one single image (size 600x600) t**o ****Default image file of IH.
DO NOT NAME THIS AS yourpic_LRG.jpg!! Name as yourpic.jpg

It should work then.

**

You know what? I don't think it will resize that top pic, after all. ZenCart calls for the product image and not any other....i.e. small, large, or medium. So, then I don't think Image Handler will either, because it uses the product info image (medium size) to display on the mouse-over of the small image (such as the product, new, or featured product image) It will, however resize it if it's clicked on. This is just my thoughts, and understanding of IH, so far. Maybe an IH Pro will come in this forum, and verify or correct me. An again, I'm just telling you how I done everything on my site. Have you looked at it, yet? If you do like what you see, I'll walk you through every one of my settings, if need be. I know how hard it is to get help on this particular thread.......it's so large, you could wait for days, and days.................
