Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

MVP1:

I appreciate the quick replies. I guess since I am early into the modification of my store, I will just start over with 1.39h and chock this up as an "experience". The whole reason I chose 1.3.8a was because it seemed to have the most compatible addons available, plus I already went ahead and edited some of my core files before I found out about the overides...oh well I need the practice. :smile:

save your edited files for comparison or editing the duplicate of the original ones from 1.3.9h---coding is a bit different and this version will require you to rename your admin folder after installation

Your reasons to stick with 1.3.8 are not logical. Version 1.3.9 is SAFER than v1.3.8 and THAT is the reason to upgrade.

I would just like to say thank you. Installed in 5 mins works like a charm.

P.S. if 5 mins was a long install it's only cause I read everything twice.

Cheers Billy :cool:

I finally got my lightbox working but now my Image Handler doesn't work along with it. Do they not work together or can you only have one or the other? I have Version 1.3.8a and image hander 2 if that makes a difference.

yup it do

first I would upgrade to 1.3.9h and then uninstall IH2 and install IH3

in the version you have the store is high risk and easy pickings for hackers

you can get the two to work together but it requires you to manually edit a file to do so.

with IH3/1.3.9h/lightbox newst version you just need to install all 3 then use the file that is exactly the same for ih3 and LB for both to play nicely together.

I have been adding products all day with additional images and just noticed that when you click on the main image it doesn't give you the option to go to the next image (usually it says next)

Here is an example where it's not working. http://frompropertorocker.com/index....oducts_id=1079

It was working earlier today and the only I did to my site was fixed the featured products I had trouble with earlier. Other than that I have just been adding products.

I do see this error in my error log just recently. [Sat Sep 10 22:57:32 2011] [error] [client 67.4.66.137] client denied by server configuration: /home/fromprop/public_html/secretadmin/includes/images, referer: https://frompropertorocker.com/secre...stylesheet.css Not sure if it has something to do with that also or what but thought I post it just in case.

Thanks!

Nvm I got it. I just re added the additional_images.php file.

nice store...and glad you found out what to do...at times a file gets corrupted by the internet gods and we just need to reup it.

A great piece of advice there. I have a tendancey to ramble (just like now) as if everyone was in the room with me and could ask the sensable questions back at me.

I would also had though to remember to select email updates on the post "daily updates" if you need the answer to solve an imediate issue.

Hi everyone,

Great feature Alex, I think this really helps to make sites look more professional.

I have a question and I'm sorry if it's already been asked elsewhere. I tried to find an answer already in the forum but no luck.

I have a form I've created on one of my pages and I'd really like to just have a link and then the form open up in a lightbox window. Is that possible to arrange with this plugin? If so do you know what code to use?

Thanks for your help and for the great plugin!

Hi i am using Zen Lightbox 1-6-2 i have this installed on Zen Cart v1.3.9h.

The lightbox works fine on my product pages but i have created a gallery as an EZ page on my site and this is not working. I have put the "jscript_zen_lightbox.php" into the "modules/pages/page_x" folders looked through the config in the admin section and still cannot get this to work.

Here is a link to the page i am talking about:
http://picnicboxco.co.uk/index.php?main_page=page&id=5

if anyone has come across this before or knows how to fix this i would be very happy.

Thanks

works a treat THANK YOU :clap:

Hi,

First of all I'd like to thank you for the module, I've installed it and it works fine on my local pc but doesn't work on my server and I wonder if anyone can shed a light on it.

I'm running 1.3.9h and using zen lightbox 1.6.2. On the server I get the impress it's not working at all if you need to see check http://www.amazingworlds.co.uk. I've checked all the permissions on the files associated with lightbox and they seem fine. I'm kind of frustrated as it's such a cool app I would really like to get it too work.

The local copy is running through wamp 2.1d-x64 and works like a dream.

Any help would be appreciated. I have searched for a solution but with no luck.

if all files are in their right spots...and you have visually verified that then check the permissions for the folders on your server and also the settings for the images in admin/configuration/images

Thanks for the reply, double checked all the permissions and all are 755 with the images 644.

DarkAngel:

... also the settings for the images in admin/configuration/images

Didn't think there were any associated files in admin, again all images are set to 644. I don't have a configuration folder under admin though.

Have to admit I'm baffled :wacko:
