Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

ihateporkroast:

Fual isn't working with my Cherry Zen template. On the individual product pages, images are no longer showing. I'd love to know what steps you took, Melt!

I was concerned about hijacking this thread since the topic is Zen Lightbox. I've responded to your question in the Faul Slimbox thread.

When uninstalling Zen Lightbox, is it a necessity to remove the database information from SQL? :)

I could finally have the Fual Slimbox (and I also assume the Zen Lightbox) mod working after implementing the patch suggested by Ajeh on 26/7/2007 ("Attribute Required for Text" - what would make it stop working?).

Thanks Ajeh!

If you have a useful fix of some kind, would you be so kind as to post it here? Thanks!

Hi Meltdown.

You will find the patch proposed by Ajeh in the thread http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69217

The post of Ajeh was issued on 26/7/2007 at 03:33 AM.

It looks like some mods do suppress some rows in the configuration table. I experienced this with the Fual Slimbox and the Zen Lightbox mods, but other "culprit" mods are mentioned in the thread.

Has anyone ever found the solution to the IE problem where the browser reports "Operation Aborted" upon the first opening of the page, but the refresh brigs you to it.

The current Lightbox has no SWFObject anywhere in it, so that's not the problem.

Help? Anyone?

Hi guys.

I am having a problem with the lightbox installation. Unfortunately, my development is on a testing server and so I can't provide links to show you the issue so will have to describe as best I can.

I have installed the lightbox according to the instructions and for the most part it works. I have uploaded a large image for a product in addition to the base image. The website displays the picture of the base image along with the description and then a thumbnail underneath of the larger image. Make sense so far? When you click on the thumbnail, lightbox kicks in and displays the larger image great. When I click the base image though it still comes up as a pop-up instead of lightbox and the link for this is still "javascript: popupWindow...." instead of a link to the image as the thumbnail does.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

No worries. Sorted it now. Just worked out the PHP for it and altered it slightly.

dimmyr, what is the URL to the problem page(s) and have you done any code Validation?

Hi everyone,

I am just getting a fresh install of zen cart going and I wanted to use the light box image enhancement. I just copied the files over but I am confused as to where I write in that code that is in the install .txt file... it does not specify as where where it goes... Can some help me out with this please.

So I've seen other people with this problem and haven't found an answer that resolves my problem. I'm not getting any errors, but the lightbox doesn't come up in the lightbox, it just links directly to the image and opens it up in a whole new page.

i reuploaded my files just in case i missed something, it's activated in the admin section. I did have one question when I ran the script for SQL patches, i hit send and it just went to the next page where it had written out all the install.txt but never officially said it was done, although it did show up in the config section.

trying to give as much info as possible. any ideas? thanks in advance for your help.

I have the light box and it is working great on both images except for one thing... That first image comes up nice and centered in the middle of the screen.. The second image is coming out huge! you have to scroll down to the bottom right to close it... I have been trying to edit the additional images.php file but that did not work..

I then was researching and i noticed that the second image is not being cashed in the bmz_cache folder at all .. it is referencing the source file which is actually that size..

It is my understanding that the bmz_cache folder is for image handler2 .. which is resizing my files...

Is this a problem with the lightbox coding in additional images?

or

is this an issue with imagehandler2 not working with my additional images?

Ok, this is my first contribution. It allows the main product images to be displayed in lightboxes.

Not sure what a lightbox is? Download and test it out for yourself! It's a 3 step installation procedure with no database edits. And yes, a screenshot has been included in the download.

Any feedback would be great!

Okay, so swfobject and lightbox won't work together. It brings up 'operation aborted' when they're both on the same page. Has anyone got a solution? Apparently its fixable with some swfobject modifications...

I just have this pasted in my tpl_header.php

http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpost.php?p=561457&postcount=1998

where can i find version 1.3 i want to upgrade to 1.4 but it states that i should uninstall any previous versions

I am having a problem getting Zen Lightbox to work in IE7 - It works fine in FF2 and FF3.

Go here for an example: http://www.hydrangeahills.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=&products_id=185

When you click on the image, instead of appearing in the overlay, the image is thrown way down at the bottom of the page. It makes no sense to me. Any thoughts?
