Product Image Thumbnailer

I created a New Category and added some products inside this category.
The problems are:

  1. When I choose the product image and post it, the image is not thumbnailed on the fly. Only one image is uploaded in the images directory and when viewing it on Product Listing, Product Info and Enlarged Image, the same image is shown just modifying the width and height. But I see that the sample products installed by Zen-Cart installer have different images. How can I do it?

  2. When adding a new EZ-Pages, the HTML editor is displayed. But this same HTML editor is not shown in the New Product adding page. Only blank text box is shown in Product Description textarea field? What could be the problem?

I'd be greatful for all helps.
Thanks

Re: Product Image Thumbnailer

Not sure about the WYSWYG toolbar, I don't use that.

About the images... resizing images is not supported in core zen-cart. There is a naming convention you can use, and then manually upload alternate sizes after the initial image has been added. It's a little clunky but works well enough if you know what you're doing. Dig around the FAQs for how to name your extra image sizes.

Alternately, there is a great 3rd party add-on that will make image handling MUCH easier for the average shop owner. Oddly enough, it's called Image Handler 2. There's a couple threads here discussing it, and it can be found at breakmyzencart.com
