Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

limelites:

Anyone noticed the Firefox 4.0 stops this working? I've upgraded to Firefox 4.0 and it's caused quite a few problems, but mainly, Zen Lightbox doesn't show any longer... try enlarging a product image on any of the sites in my signautre, using Firefox 4.0 and you'll see what I mean. Is there a solution to this do you know?

I'm not convinced the issue is caused by FireFox 4.0 because my ZLB works just fine with that browser.

No, it's definitely a Firefox 4.0 issue. The lightbox works perfectly well in ie on the same PC you see. Then, on my desktop PC with Firefox 4.0...... I get the exact same issue.

Can you try my sites in your browser, to see if it opens the larger images?

Visiting your sites in IE8, I don't see the images opening in a lightbox either. They seem to be opening as a new page which only displays a large size of the product image, requiring a click on the back arrow to get back to the product description.

In FF4.0, superfancy.co.uk behaves the same way.

Did you modify/customize the ZLB code? Or have you just removed it at this point?

It has the same problem in chrome.
It looks like you are using a modified version of ZLB 1.5
please try updating your plugin to ZLB 1.6 and these issues should be fixed. You may need to make some custom mods to it if you want it to look exactly like yours did before with the special loading graphic and info pane. Most likely the css and the images associated. (hopefully you still have your orig template files)

Sorry, try it on https://www.limelites.co.uk or https://www.silkblooms.co.uk

I forgot I took it off superfancy a long time ago. Main problem is with LL and SB

Hmmmm, it definitely works fine in ie8, but not in FF4. Definitley must be something to do with CSS as it works in FF3.6 but looking at FF4 in Firebug, there's definitely something really weird happening.

No, its not the css that throwing it off, its the mootools thats used in ZLB 1.5. Your site has the same problem in chrome, its just that FF4 how now caught up to chrome, so now same issue that people have been having with chrome for months is spreading.
ZLB 1.6 uses jQuery instead of mootools.

Can you post a link to the download location of 1.6 please? I've tried hunting for it before in the free software area above, but have always had trouble finding the correct one. That's the reason I took ot off Superfancy, it was a failed upgrade that was driving me nuts :)

If you've had trouble before then be sure to make good backups before you begin any upgrade. not just ZLB

Downloaded lightbox addon today using latest update. I am getting the same error. I did it in php, not ZenCart Admin. I still do not understand what the fix is. Thanks so much to anyone who can help.

Sorry. Entered this in wrong section. Disregard.

what this is doing.
the lightboxes have built in functionality that will overlay a transparent div over the images when it needs to navigate to the previous and next images. by default they are hidden with that function: hide() but we are telling those 2 divs to NOT be hidden. So now when you right click on it you're really right clicking on a transparent div and not the actual image thats underneath it.
The file renaming is needed as to not confuse your visitor into thinking there should be more images when there are not.

Thank you...this is an exciting theory but the divs are don't seem to be preventing right clicking on the actual item image in Firefox. did i do it right? changed the image names with a dash and deleted the I,d, at ```
www.geoodyssey.com/products

It is helpful but along with coding the copyright into the images as suggested above, and putting a copyright on all pages, I just want that message popping up...any combination of things to help remind the thief that it matters.

The site owner really does not want a watermark...sigh :( ...but thinks the lightbox is cool....I'll work on him...

Again,  I think in our industry it is not about laziness as it is about the difficulty in creating images from a parts compilation ..especially when the parts shop web developer does not have access to the parts. they rely on the manufacturer to supply images and they do a good job of that for the most part...that is where our images come into play. they know we stock and shoot all our site images...every time there is a turn over in the staff there, our images start showing up on competitors sites. this little message, "please do not copy" along with other measures, like a copyright on each page...really have helped, going on ten years selling online now. 

We've only seen this breach occur on a handful out of 800+ images on our competitors sights and the root of the problem has been this very situation as described...so something has been working where that "please do not copy" note is concerned or we'd see our images everywhere.

thanks for your time. I'll continue to fiddle with some ideas and post if i solve.

I didn't say it would prevent you from right clicking on them, I said it > will prevent the right click menu that does pop up from showing a save image as option.

From what I can see it has done that properly.

I have found discussions about this error but still am unable to find the solution. I installed lightbox yesterday using the current link. I am on step 5 in the readme file. This is the error I am getting:

Hi Page,
I havent personally dealt with the prefix issue, but I just tested it and was able to reproduce your results. According to this post on the thread: Your database has a prefix before the names of the tables. you need to find out what the table prefix is:

if you open [includes/configure.php] and look for the line ```
define('DB_PREFIX', '[B]yourPrefixHere_[/B]');

you'll want to take that part in red and then update your install.sql file as shown in the link. (all the places in red).

Forgot to include quote

DarkAngel:

please go to the database in myadminphp and look at the tables. make sure that the prefix is: selectge_znc1

NOT the databases name but the prefix just before each and every individual table there...send a screenshot of the database tables please.

Are you saying that I need to change the prefix in every one of these files in the table from zc to selectge_znc1? For example, start with znc_address_book and change it to selectge_znc1_address_book. Is this correct? Thank you.

Could not get screen shot small enough to attach. Here is a copy/paste of the first few line of the table.
localhost - hipdockc_znc1

Table Ascending Action Records 1 Type Collation Size Overhead
znc_address_book Browse Structure Search Insert Empty Drop 2 MyISAM latin1_general_ci 12.2 KiB -
znc_address_format Browse Structure Search Insert Empty Drop 6 MyISAM latin1_general_ci 8.6 KiB -
znc_admin Browse Structure Search Insert Empty Drop 1 MyISAM latin1_general_ci 16.1 KiB -
znc_admin_activity_log Browse Structure

Also, please explain exactly how to change the prefixes.

No, the only change you make is inside install.sql.
Did you find out what your prefix is as I described?

In [includes/configure.php], the line is:
define('DB_PREFIX', 'znc_');
So, I will go to the install SQL file and change hipdockc_znc1.configuration_group to
Hipdockc_znc_.configuration_group
I hope I have this right.  Thank you Danel!
