Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

Wooo hooo! It was the z index! The original css file was set to 9999. I set it to a smaller number (in line with all my other z-indexed items) and the image was no longer greyscaled.

Thank you for your help Nick!

GOT IT!
made this slight change and ran it through again...

SELECT @cgi := configuration_group_id FROM [B]zen[/B]_configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Zen Lightbox';

I made only this change and not the other changes mentioned here <http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpost.php?p=662273&postcount=1240> to make the sql.install file work.

Perfect changed that one line and it worked a treat:clap:

As promised, I've looked into the installation issues with the SQL code where database tables contained prefixes.

This issue has now been resolved and the new installation SQL code can be found below.

Please note, this code is to be used with Zen Lightbox v1.5 only.

I would be grateful if everyone could report errors (or success stories) here.

Many thanks,

it works!!!
but now i have three lightbox tabs in my configuration??
Also my when the light box pops up there are 2 images of the same pic.
Heres the url: policyclothing.com

thanks

You can run the uninstall.sql code to remove all the Zen Lightbox database entries.

Then simply run the install.sql code again and it should all install fine. :smile:

I'll look into your double image issue later on this evening.

Quick question:
I would like to implement this great feature ONLY on my EZ pages.
Is this possible?

If it is which files to copy and which ones not.

Thanks for your help
Michael

I've uploaded all the files and ran the SQL patch and now I get no display for a product listing. Example here:

http://games4gamersonline.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=174_177_213_231&products_id=790

If I replace tpl_modules_main_product_image.php with the pre-Lightbox version, it works fine (albeit w/o LB support). Any help? Thanks...

I was running Lightbox 1.4 and wanted to upgrade to version 1.5. I am running Zen Cart v1.3.8a

As per the installation instructions I ran the uninstall sql, then uploaded the files after changing the folder names. Then I ran the install sql

Lightbox options are showing when I go to Admin > Configuration > Zen Lightbox. Everything seems fine there.

However it is not working on my site at http://www.syzygypens.com When I click on the image the larger image is just opened in the same window, no pop up or overlay, and I have to click the back button on my browser to go back to my site.

I have tried it in both IE and Firefox and get the same results.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I am replacing it with the pre-LB version, but here is a screenshot to illustrate the issue:

Hi, I think this is a wonderful mod and wished it would work on my site but it's not.

Initially I got the same SQL errors as others before me, but an uninstall/reinstall with updated SQL code fixed it, and now I see the Zen Lightbox in Admin-Config.

My URL is http://dees-deelights.com/store
I have ZC 1.3.8a
Image Handler 2
MySQL 5.0.67-community-log
PHP Version: 5.2.8 (Zend: 2.2.0)
Browser Firefox
My last add on was the Specials side box Dec 9. No problems since then until now.

Any help appreciated, thank you.

shoniqua,

I've just checked your website and can't see any of the Zen Lightbox code in the HTML output.

Are you sure it's installed and you haven't recently changed your template?

Regards,

Alex

Hi Alex, I'm sorry I feel like a dope, when I FTP'd I uploaded the entire folder structure to public_html/store/includes instead of public_html/store :blush:

It's working! :clap::clap:: thank you so much!

Just a quick question.

I am running Lightbox 1.4 and it works just fine.

What would be the benefits of upgrading to 1.5 ?

Sorry if thats a dumb question but i'm wondering if it's worth waiting for 1.6 instead of updating a module that already works great at the moment.

Grace38, from what I can see the upgrade is significant. The control panel in the Admin section offers a lot more options. Also one of the bigger advantages is the ability of Lightbox to work on other pages aside from just the product detail page. For example it would work on pictures on the EZ pages.

Having said that, I am not having much success installing it on my site at http://www.syzygypens.com

I uninstalled 1.4 and installed 1.5. It shows up in my Admin panel, I can see and change all the options, however it is not working on the site. When I click on an image, the larger image is opened up in the same window and I have to click on the browser back button to get back to the product detail page.

I've been trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong for a couple of days now. I'd really like to get it sorted as I like the extra features of 1.5.

Well I figured out why Lightbox 1.5 was not working for me, which is pretty amazing considering how clueless I am :D

I am running Slideshow 2! on my main page and I had the code for that embedded in includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_footer.php

Well it seems like Lightbox 1.5 and Slideshow 2! don't play nice together. So I moved the code for Slideshow 2! into includes/languages/english/html_includes/MY TEMPLATE NAME/define_main_page.php and voila everyone's getting along fabulously :D

Just thought I would post this in case it helps anyone.

Hi - I'm getting the following error when trying to run the sql file:

1146 Table 'bellabel_zc1.configuration_group' doesn't exist
in:
[SELECT @cgi := configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Zen Lightbox';]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

I'm doing it via Admin > Tools > Install SQL Patches.

I'm using ZC 1.3.8a

Still can't get this to work, and on a clean vanilla install of zc.

I have no idea what to do :(

I just tried it from phpMyAdmin and got this error, which I guess is the same thing...

Error

SQL query:

INSERT INTO configuration_group
VALUES (
NULL , 'Zen Lightbox', 'Configure Zen Lightbox settings', '0', '1'
);

MySQL said: Documentation

I've just checked your website and noticed this in the HTML output.

<!-- bof Zen Lightbox v1.4 aclarke 2007-09-15 -->

It looks like the old version of Zen Lightbox wasn't completely uninstalled.

Make sure you uninstall v1.4 (as per the documentation) and then check that v1.5 was installed correctly.

Thank should solve your double image issue. :smile:
