Re: Additional images not working

OK I will give it a go but what you are saying is that adding additional images via image handler does do the job for you but surly it should? or why have that feature

Was this a mis entry? IH2 does what it should but for additionals you need to do the naming correctly as the IH2 mod can not create these on the fly - you have to use the naming convention to allow this to function but only for the base additional image

Template Monster template? Yes, their designers are known for removing/disabling core functionality.

Re: Additional images not working

It appears you have a purchased template. And, right now, you have the IMH2 turned off. It would not be unusual to find that the makers of the template have changed or not kept up with the coding for the additional images. Make sure you've used the proper naming convention, clear the bmz cache and see what happens.
best of luck

Re: Additional images not working

I can't help with the problem you asked about, but a couple of things jumped out at me that are under your control:

Do you have any idea how hard it is to read a long block of all caps like your description for the "HERITAGE 600 EB 3 BIRTH Year 2000"?

And, I suppose the spelling standard might be different in the UK, but "berth" is the correct spelling for a sleeping space.

Re: Additional images not working

OK the plot thickens

I have changed the product layout with the (product info centered mod)

now the additional images show up at the bottom of the page but lightbox and IH2 only work on the additional image not the main one?

check it out

http://campingandcaravan.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=28&products_id=86

Re: Additional images not working

When you get to a product page IMH2 presents you with the Medium image for the product and the thumbnails for the additional. By default, IMH2 will not expand medium images to large.

Re: Additional images not working

Hi

IH2 is not working on product pages where the image is not medium but even when they are small no hover yet is still works on additional images?

take a look

http://campingandcaravan.co.uk/index.php?main_page=specials

Re: Additional images not working

shynee,

This looks to be a commercial template by Template Monster or one of their affiliates.

Search here for template monster - you sould find the this is a template issue or mostly....

Re-read the IH2 documentation as it functions with a specific set of images but I tend to believe that this is most probably template related.

You can check by switching to the classic template(might have to include module files in this template) and see if the issues exist - if not then it is a template issue and you will have to get with the provider of the template for a solution
