Help, clean install of latest dont show images

Hello All,

Just did a clean install of the latest Zencart but i can seem to view the images that came with it. Followed the instructions carefully to load and install Zen cart. dont know what else i can do its not a resizing issue. i think its just a referring link to the images folder but i cant figure how to correct any link to the images folder.

here is the site for a peek: http://www.ofeliashamlet.com/

all images show as a hyper text link also same situation in both IE and Firefox browsers.

any hints or resolutions would be great.

Happy new year to all!

How did you install the program?

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

Re: Help, clean install of latest dont show images

Is your Admin section showing any images?

In the HTML output your paths show correctly. Does your Hosting control panel show you your Error log? Might help to narrow down where the problem is.

Otherwise, it could be a path problem related to your 'config' files.

The learning is in the doing.

Re: Help, clean install of latest dont show images

hi, no error logs, but i do believe that this is a path problem.. in the config files. there are no images in my admin pages as well... this is odd i cant figure it out everything works except the showing of images.. :cry:

Re: Help, clean install of latest dont show images

In both your 'config' files, do you have the following:

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');

The learning is in the doing.

Re: Help, clean install of latest dont show images

--- SOLVED ---

Rob, Thanks for your patience and advise.

I figured this out. the site was on a hotlink protection list within the host and once i granted the site clear access it showed all the images. :D

Everything is all good now and i can start on restyling using the CSS.

thanks again.
