Image Titles Support Thread

Bugfix:

Symptom: New Products centerbox when in a category and not using image replacement shows only the category name, and not the "New Products for Month" text.

Solution: In /includes/modules/your_template/new_products.php, line 86, replace the . with , as shown:

title_image_exists(sprintf(TABLE_HEADING_NEW_PRODUCTS . strftime('%B'))

title_image_exists(sprintf(TABLE_HEADING_NEW_PRODUCTS, strftime('%B'))

This fix will be in v2.1, which I will submit as soon as I finish testing the flexible centerbox images.

I see you already found the bug:)

That new fix worked to bring back the New Products for the month text on the category pages, but it will not replace the text with the image on category page.

I have finished testing the new code for new_products.php, so I will attach a zip of the file for now. You can replace your copy with this one.

ok, I uploaded the new file...

Now it's back to the text on main page (no image replacement) and on the category pages, it's still just text as well...

From the v2.1 readme:

Name your header title images centerboxhead-featured.gif, centerboxhead-new.gif, and centerboxhead-specials.gif and save in /your_template/buttons/your_language/.
If you want distinct images for the current month and category where applicable, name the images like centerboxhead-new-03.gif or centerboxhead-new-03-cat23.gif.
Replace 03 with the month number (01 = January) and 23 with the category id.

Other languages may have special characters like umlauts in month names; since I don't know if those could cause problems when used in filenames, I changed the filename code to use the month number instead of name.

Ah, didn't know you just now changed the image naming convention. I changed the image filename to reference the month in digit and it's working now. Image showing on both main page and category pages. Thanks for quick update.

I have installed this and it just isn't working for me. I can't even see the code for the image when I view the source. It is a freshly upgraded site, runnign 1.3.9h, with a custom template and all of the files loaded to the appropriate folders. Can you help?

Thanks!

The most likely cause if the files are in the correct places is image names, What titles are you trying to replace, and what are the filenames you are using?

But it doesn't even show any image names at all in the source code...and, I did already change the file to reflect a .jpg instead of a .gif and the file name is boxhead-categories.jpg. I've only put one in to check and see if it worked and since I can't even see the code, I don't know for sure what to name the others, anyway...

The title for the categories sidebox, then? That would be the correct filename; what folder did you save it in?

It might be helpful to post a copy of the actual define for filetype as it is now.

I saved it in my custom template/buttons/english folder, just as it says to in the instructions.

Here's the code, all I changed was the file extension:

<?php
/**

 * //includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/your_template/image_titles_defines.php
 * Images for Titles  by Glenn Herbert (gjh42)    2010-09-01
 */
 
define('IMAGE_TITLES_EXT','.jpg');// or .jpg, .png, etc.
?>

Thanks for the help. I've triple checked that all files are in the right place and still, no code is even showing up for any of the title images at all. I just don't know what's up.

That is odd. Everything you describe is correct. I would probably need to be inside your admin to get any more useful info. The filename would not show in view source unless the replacement code found the file; thus, it is not looking in the same place as your file is. Check if all the mod files look like good files. One could be corrupted and disable the function - in that case, re-uploading the files would fix it.

I figured it out, please forgive. I had used an underscore instead of a hyphen in the image name...habit, I suppose :) . Thanks for your help and for the mod!

Hi,

Anyone knows how to get this to work with the center box also purchased products?
I can´t get it to work

here´s a example
http://pedradatattoosupplies.com/index.php?language=en&main_page=product_info&cPath=8&products_id=1093

Thx in advance

The code that calls the substitution could be put in the "also purchased" file, probably quite easily. I don't have access to my test site right now to locate the file, but I can do it when I get home.

I´ve been trying to figure it out but I don´t know much about coding... The background image just disapeared after I installed the images 4 titles, so some file must be in conflict...

Just in case if you want to check it out here´s the example again
http://pedradatattoosupplies.com/ind...oducts_id=1093

Thx in advance

The file to edit would be
/includes/modules/your_template/also_purchased_products.php.

Find line 47:```php
$title = '<h2 class="centerBoxHeading">' . TEXT_ALSO_PURCHASED_PRODUCTS . '</h2>';

//change to

$title = '<h2 class="centerBoxHeading">' . title_image_exists(TEXT_ALSO_PURCHASED_PRODUCTS, 'centerboxhead-alsopurchased') . '</h2>';

Save your image as centerboxhead-alsopurchased.gif.

It´s working :clap:

Thx again

Keep up the good work

Hi I'm using the mod which is great!!

Should the headings or can the headings categories, Search, information etc be clickable or links?

I'm not sure if it's this mod or what but I've got text under the images. I did post about this in another part of the forum but I'm still not sure how to get rid of it.

Here's what I posted in another thread

"On my website I noticed that the featured products banner looks like the bottom has colour missing from it.
If you get your mouse and click the left mouse button while scrolling across underneath the banner there is wording that also says featured product??

Any idea how I remove the text??"

You may have installed Images for Titles, but it is not being used for any of your headings that I can see. You are still seeing the effects of the previous replacement or addition of background-images; you probably need to remove those (I don't know how since I don't know what originally put them there). IT will replace the text in the output with <img> code, not a background-image. You do need to have your image files named and saved exactly according to the instructions.
