Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

Jeffey:

Interesting Woody. I certainly don't want to piss off the spiders!

Any clues how to fix the "overlap" without effecting other h1 areas of the site? As it stood it was difficult to find spots on the pictures to enlarge them since the h1 id areas of the product title extended over the picture square.

It is impossible to even begin imagining your issue without an URL.

You may want to investigate Compound CSS or similar. http://www.maujor.com/tutorial/isel-en.php

Good luck.

My secondary pic wasn't showing but then I realized I didn't organize my pics properly. I followed this link >> How do I add multiple images to a product?

And in case you need to know more about sizing (because your lightbox image is bigger than standard pic size..), check out >> Image Preparation - How-to

Fortunately worked for me, I thought it was annoying to organize in this fashion, but it ends up being tidier and clearer in the long run.

Repost if it works/doesn't work, good luck

Thanks Woody. Actually ended up changing the format (plus putting back the h1 and h2's per your suggestion) and have grown to like it better. Maybe I'm convincing myself!
Anyway, it's working and full picture is clickable so I'm happy.

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out since I'm trying to bone up at least a little bit more on CSS.

Thanks tatiana77!!

Your advice worked.

I looked over the preparing images FAQs again and realized that I had not put my large images in the large folder, consequently they were being picked up as additional images. So i moved them to the correct folder and all works smoothly.

I am actually setting up a site to sell/display photo's and am having trouble adding a css boarder around the images on the products info page. Whats happening: When I add the boarder style to the css, and enclose the image code in the <span> tags referencing the css, I get a box but it only covers a single line. The bottom & sides of the box is correct, located 5px from the edge of the image, however the top only goes up one text line, then cuts behind the image.

Could this be because the images are called with javascript? Anyone have a border around there products image on the products info page?

Any suggestions appreciated. And thanks again tatiana77 for pointing me in the right direction.

#productMainImage a img {border: 5px solid red;}

On your store admin screen go to the Tools section

Under Tools there should be an entry called Developers Toolkit

go into there and do a search.

Here is a link to the FAQ about this, the FAQ has lots of simple help for situations like this.... https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=38

I would belive your problem is because it cant find the bigger picture. I'm just shooting in the dark here, cause I have no idea how your images is set up. make sure your image endings are correct (LRG, MED etc).

I don't use different image sizes only one. Is it required to use different image sizes to use Lightbox? That will make a lot of extra work.

Not sure, I use the image handler 2 mod.

I've seen some image preporation tutorials while browsing this forum. I'm sure it wount take to long to do a search and find out. But you should use atleast two different images. One thumbnail and one larger size image. Be sure your saved the right images in the right folder. But again, search for a tutorial.

Thanks for the tip, its just that searching for "Image" Doesent exactly bring back few results. Tried with "Image + of" and variations of that, but seems like zencart search does not support search functions.

I searched every php file that comes with the lightbox. Am I blind? My language file is norwegian, so its weird that the "Image x of x" stands in english if its beeing printed from somewhere else.

It would be this section of the lightbox.js file (around line #439)```
// if image is part of set display 'Image x of x'
if(imageArray.length > 1){
Element.show('numberDisplay');
Element.setInnerHTML( 'numberDisplay', "Image " + eval(activeImage + 1) + " of " + imageArray.length);
}

Maybe someone here can help me out.

I'm using Zen Lightbox (Which I love by the way). It works great on all my images except those that I designate as document product types. When you click those images, it just opens on a new page which is what I was trying to avoid.

I'm trying to just set up a gallery using the document-general product types so it will just show the picture and not the add to cart links. Anyone know why the lightbox isn't working on those type files?

nevermind, I went back and read through ALL the posts and found the answer. Works like a charm now. Thanks!

I seem to remeber something about needing to install IH2 first and then the lightbox... :huh:

I have installed lightbox and love the feature. Now I would like to know if it is possible to turn off the additional images on the product page but still be able to view them through the lightbox.

This may have been addressed in the past, but I have an EZ Page where I could love for my thumbnail images to open up in the lightbox form... how do I do this?
