Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

Well basically i want to use same/similar effects.

1. fade mouse over
2. have multi able images
3. Ajax that pop up (not open in another window)

where do I go from here? will the lightbox do that for me?
will the light box open images on top rather then on a new separate window?

thanks for your reply gcampos

No problem, figure I might as well help out...

Well I know that Zen Lightbox will do the last two, but for the fade in/out, not sure, it is cool though.

You'll have to look for a couple posts back to figure out how to do multi images, here's link: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpost.php?p=392994&postcount=584

Other than that go for it, it does work good, and I am sure you can tweak it to what you want it to look like.

Now if we can find out how that fade in/out mouseover works :shocking:

Hi Just installed IH2 to run alongside lightbox. I have a big problem where the images are showing up everywhere exzcept when you click on the specific product. All that is showing is the view large image text and product heading but no small picture.
Here is a link to what I mean http://www.djdepot.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=26&products _id=1282

Sorry if this is already posted, but I was wondering on how to change the size of the larger image that shows up in the lightbox.

Question for you, is it possible to disable the right click - copy image function with this java script?

Thanks
Larry

You might want to make sure you followed install instructions properly, it should work the first time out, at least mine did.

Hi, I installed this amazing mod after installing image handler 2 first. It works great for the main images, but does not work for additional images.
Here is the link to the problem for you to see! Try clicking on an additional image, it just hangs!

Thanks!

James739,

Doesnt work either, I ve checked other sites with additional images and they have them the same way as you, so not sure, maybe IH2 is a culprit.

I didint install Image Handler 2, only Lightbox. But may have to soon, wonder how its going to act.

Hello all, and thanks again for such a great mod! I've read through this whole thread and not found any proper answer to my question (forgive me if there was one, I probably diddn't see it cos I'm tired after reading 60 pages :sleepy:)

My lightbox is working with image handler on a current version of zencart. What I would like to do is have additional images be visible through the lightbox *only, *and not show up on the product page. I don't like how additional images look on the page so it would be great to have them working only through the lightbox. I'm sure it must be possible! I'm no programmer (I tried and failed to do it through css) so I'm hoping someone else has this figured out and doesn't mind sharing :smile:

Cheers in advance!

Got it to work but the css drop down menu show up in from of the lightbox image..

You can hide the additional images on the product page using CSS (by using the display: none property).

Any elements/objects that appear above the lightbox can be hidden by wrapping them in the following div.

<div class="flash">
your-flash-or-other-object-goes-here
</div>

Let me know how you get on! :)

I had the exact same problem, when I installed Lightbox, it has to do with the "z-index", the fix should be here in this thread:

Not sure what to edit.
installed: css_horizontal_drop_down_menu_1.2 to my site
mod down load: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&cPath=40_47&products_id=479

Thanks Alex

Edit this file: includes\templates\YOUR-TEMPLATE-FOLDER\common\tpl_header.php.

Find this code:

<!--bof-drop down menu display-->
<?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_drop_menu.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common'). '/tpl_drop_menu.php');?>
<!--eof-drop down menu display-->

Add the div tag around it, as previously mentioned. So, it looks like this:

<div class="flash"><!--bof-drop down menu display-->
<?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_drop_menu.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common'). '/tpl_drop_menu.php');?>
<!--eof-drop down menu display--></div>

That should do the trick! :)

Hi Alex, thanks for getting back to me!

I feel like I am going mad, though. I have been trying to do what you suggest for ages, I just can't see what I am getting wrong. Please bear in mind that I don't really understand what I'm doing and my idea of editing code is pretty much trial and error.

In the stylesheet css for my template I have got this:-

/*Image Display*/
#productMainImage, #productAdditionalImages,#reviewsInfoDefaultProductImage, #productReviewsDefaultProductImage, #reviewWriteMainImage {
    margin: 0em 1em 1em 0em ;
    }


#productAdditionalImages, {display: none;}
```And yet it does not work. I've tried every variation I can think of, removing/putting in capitals, changing the punctuation, spelling and order, but obviously not the right one yet. Help! :dontgetit

Do you have a link to your site, please?

Thanks Alan :) here's the link...

The Birds In The meadow

Only this product has the additional images if you want to see them.

...please be gentle, it isn't yet finished and I have a few nonsense products up at the moment :laugh:

Cheers, I appreciate the help.

...or should I say Alex. Shame on me! I think I've been looking at pages of code for too long :oops:
