Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

I removed the z-index and it didn't appear to fix it. Do I need to make a change somewhere other than just the CSS file?

I looked at your css, and I still see the property in there, now in 2 files. stylesheet.css and stylesheetNOW.css
I'd would need to be removed from both.

and I need to add it's a BAD idea to keep backups of any file alongside the new files as they will BOTH be loaded.. if you want to keep a backup of your stylesheet, then keep it on your local machine NOT on your live site.. Zen Cart will load BOTH..

I've just installed this contribution on my website, however I'm getting this code:```
jQuery(function($) { $("a[rel^='lightbox']").slimbox({}, function(el) { return [el.href, el.title /* + '
Download this image'*/]; }, function(el) { return (this == el) || ((this.rel.length > 8) && (this.rel == el.rel)); }); }); //-->

Moreover I have the issue that the 'search field' overlaps lightbox:blink: how can I solve this?

Can someone make the lightbox movable/draggable?
That will be awesome.

Not sure where the extra jquery came from that ended up in your body. Can you check the installation files and make sure they are in the right places.
I did notice that you also have a version of colorbox installed on your site. You should really try to remove that if you are going to stick with ZLB. The installation of both may be causing your issues.

for your search bar issue, you need to remove the z-index from this line in your css file

#navMainSearch {float:right;position:relative;top:-20px;right:10px;z-index:15000;}

DarkAngel:

Did you manually reupload all the files? Sometimes the internet is mean and corrupts them the first time.

Did you remember to install the SQL? After many times of doing installations i tend to forget that at times too/still.

So go back to the server files, reupload the files to the folders manually again then go to the admin section and see if it shows up under the first tab, near the bottom of the list.

Yes I have checked the install instructions and checked all the files are in the correct locations. I can see the Zen Lightbox Setting under the zencart admin OK and it is enabled.

But you REALLY do not have all the files in place to make the ZLB add-on work.. When viewing the page source for your site the CSS and JS files one would expect to see if ZLB was installed correctly are TRULY not in place:

Looking at your page source it looks like ALL of the Zen Cart functions to auto load the CSS and JS has been STRIPPED from your template.. You have a CSS file and JS file loaded in the head section of your site, but they are not part of any NORMAL Zen Cart template structure. (no template folder -- both the CSS and JS are called from the Zen Cart root -- this is NOT normal for the Zen Cart template structure)

Whoever built your template did so by BREAKING the normal Zen Cart template structure.. It looks like your template maker STRIPPED all the default code from the include/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/html_header.php. THIS would be a HUGE reason why ZLB is not working for you..

Hi all

I've noticed that my additional images not longer to link to the images themselves but to the home page using #

is there a way to fix this, I've done a search through the thread and I can see someone else had the problem but couldn't find the answer to it.

cheers

Hi,

i know that's probably not an thread related question but i could use some help over here. I am not able to install lightbox v1.5 on my zencart 1.3.8.a

after uploading the files as described at readme i'm installing the sql file both by copying the text and uploading the "install.sql", but i'm getting the above errors and as a result my installation isn't successful.
Any ideas what should i look for?
Thanks in advance!

actually i managed to install the sql through phpMyadmin, i can see the zen light box at "admin->configuration" but it is empty i can only see the following listing

and off course the lightbox doesn't work on site. i don't know what else to do...
There's a file at the rar that isn't mentioning at the readme named "jscript_zen_lightbox.php" and it's in the root directory. should i put it somewhere?

Hi,
I finally installed latest version and it works just fine! But I'm having the following error. When I'm changing the language at the admin page I get the following error:
"Fatal error: Call to a member function get_template_dir() on a non-object in /home/demo/public_html/eshop/includes/classes/zen_lightbox/slimbox.php on line 12"
Anyone???

That's ok, thanks for your interest!

I've installed the latest version of Lightbox to a fresh v1.5.1 ZenCart. Everything seems to work fine, but I notice that when viewing with Safari on an iPad (iOS v6), the NEXT and PREVIOUS labels are not displayed when additional images exist. The corners are active when clicked, just no Next or Previous images. Works fine from a PC.

Any ideas?

Can you post a link to the site?

Hi i just installed and everything is working great, but its not showing the next and previous tabs on top of image.
I installed the latest version i believe. Also since i sell templates the template image takes up the whole page and on some images the close tab on the bottom is only half visible, is there a way for close tab to always be aligned so always visible within the image. One more thing i cant scroll right , for images that need it.
