Thanks! Is it possible to do it through admin? The site is for a friend and I don't think he is able to upload straight....

you can try using the osCommerce file manager.

yes, you can make this work anywhere a small image is used. you have to find whatever var the image is represented by and replace with the code, example from the doc:

 

## open: /catalog/includes/modules/product_listing.php

## replace 2 occurrances of:

 

$listing['products_image']

 

## with:

 

(file_exists(DIR_WS_IMAGES.str_replace( '.','_s.',$listing['products_image']))?str_replace( '.','_s.',$listing['products_image']):$listing['products_image'])

 

 

Just replace "$listing['products_image']" everywhere above with the var you find in other pages.

Hi every one , im new to this place .

 

First of all i would like to thanks 1000 times surfalot for this great contrib !!!

 

Well i'm also a newbi to PHP but i wanted to modifiy this code to put more than 6 images to my site so i modified it to 9 more extra images.

 

The best thing is guys, I could combine this great module with the great LIGHTBOX effect so no popup now all images in the same page with the lighteffect.

 

So if you are interested in guys i can post the code for you.i'm asking you this coz it made me mad to combine them to gether so im sure that there some other users like me who would like to have this cool effect with all extra images.

 

Request : if i upload this modification to the contib page am i able to change the original name of this module which is MORE PICS 6 to MORE PICS 9??? just a question if "surfalot" doesn't like this no matter lets forget it.

 

have a look to the modification online : http://srilankanauto.com

I'm sure there are many folks that want to see a complete integration with the lightbox. Under the GNU rules and this community you may do what you are asking. renaming is up to you, you can rename and post to a new contrib if you want or back to this one. Might get lost if you start a new contrib. All I ask is to make sure the docs are updated with anything that needs to be. Maybe even an upgrade doc for those that have the version you started with.

What are main differences between this More_Pics contribution and this UltraPics one?

 

That one has screenshots clearly showing what it can do but this More_pics one doesn't.

 

I was hoping someone can give an unbiased opinion on what advantages and disadvantages one has over the other.

 

Thanks

Upon receiving fixes and advice, too many people don't bother to post updates informing the forum of how it went. Until of course they need help again on other issues and they come running back!

 

Why receive the information you require in good faith for free, only to then have the attitude to ignore the people who gave it to you?

 

There's no harm in saying, 'Thanks, it worked'. On the contrary, it creates a better atmosphere.

Guys, I would really appreciate some feedback because I need to add one of these two contributions to a clients site within the next 2 days - many thanks to anyone taking the time out to reply!

uploaded js folder

add lightbox css to my css

 

copied over files from admin to admin

 

modified product_info

 

and all is good... until I edit html_output

 

I cut and pasted

function thumbimage ($image, $x, $y, $aspectratio, $resize, $cachedir){ ........ } to the end of my html_output, upload to /functions, thumbnail is large light box script works and site still functions.

 

comment out if ( (CONFIG_CALCULATE_IMAGE_SIZE == 'true') && (empty($width) || empty($height)) ) { .....} upload new file to /functions, thumbnail is large light box script works and site still functions.

 

then I cut and paste:

 

if ($image_size = @getimagesize($src)) {

if ((CONFIG_CALCULATE_IMAGE_SIZE == 'true' && $src != DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'pixel_black.gif' && $src != DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'pixel_trans.gif' && $src != DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'pixel_silver.gif' )) {

if ( ($width) || ($height) ) {

if ( $width=="100%" ) {

$width = $image_size[0];

} elseif ( $height=="100%" ) {

$height = $image_size[1];

} elseif ( $width==0 ) {

unset($width);

} elseif ( $height==0 ) {

unset($height);

}

$src=thumbimage(DIR_FS_CATALOG . '/' .$src, $width, $height, 1, 1, DIR_FS_CATALOG . '/' . DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'imagecache');

if ((($image_size[1]/$height) > ($image_size[0]/$width) ) && $height>0){

$width=ceil(($image_size[0]/$image_size[1])* $height);

} elseif ($width>0) {

$height=ceil($width/($image_size[0]/$image_size[1]));

}

}

}

} elseif (IMAGE_REQUIRED == 'false') {

return '';

}

 

and I loose content, I still have navigation and header but 0 content, any suggestion would be appriciated.

did you upload the version with 9 images?
He uploaded a contribution with lightbox but for some reason he's taken it down with letting anyone know why.

 

Anyway, does anyone know how easy or difficult it will be to have the images at two different size on product info:

 

1) the main product info image to be 100x75

2) the addition more pics to be 50x50

 

BTW - great contribution surfalot

 

Many thanks

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but in regards to the QuickFix hack; wouldn't it be easier to have the 'popup_image.php' file run a function that searched for "product_b.gif" as opposed to hacking every other file to have it display the "product_s.gif"?

 

So this way, when creating a product, you upload your thumbnail images at the the happy and and static values of "Small Image Width/Height" which OSC already uses to display everywhere, then when 'popup_image.php' is run, the modified code searches for the file name with an appended "_b".

 

Again, correct me if I am wrong as I am not a master programmer by any regard, but with my limited knowlege this seems possible.

The reason I like this approach better is that customizing OSC for me is very convoluted and confusing so the less changes made everywhere the better.

 

I found a solutuon to this by opening the More Pics 6 1.2c modded 'popup_image.php' file and immediately after line 103:

 

$img = DIR_WS_IMAGES . $insert;

 

I added:

 

$img = str_replace('.', '_b.', $img);

 

and things seem to be working fine as long as my popup (large) image is named appropriately with the "_b" appended to the end.

I don't know if this solution is leaving something out of the over all scope of things, so some feedback would be appreciated.

If that works best for you, run with it.

 

I think you overlooked the name "quickfix". :D

for lack of more thought-out solution maybe...

 

the one thing you are missing is the option to display a larger image on the product info page. if you place the thumbs in the regular product image field, you can't have a larger primary image on the product info page.

 

The other issue is that if someone had a fully stocked shop before adding More Pics, they would have to re-upload every image with a thumbnail size before installing a package that assumes the named images are all thumbs and the larger images are extraneous.

 

Not everyone wants their shop setup with preprocessed thumbnails, or has the time and motivation to do so, therefore this works for all regardless of how they want to use the shop. When providing a solution to the GP, you have to think of all the possible scenarios and what would be best and easiest for all.

he didn't take it down. only the admins are allowed to do that. There must have been a violation of the board rules.

 

1) there is an option that allows you to display the main product info image unrestricted. see "Restrict parent image size".

2) "Use SMALL_IMAGE_ Restrictions" setting.

 

if both of those are false, it will display the images in their original sizes which can be anything you choose.

 

Assuming you are using this with the main pic and the additional pic separate, you can do this to hardcode a size for the main product image.

 

find this in product_info.php

 

<script language="javascript"><!--
document.write('<?php echo '<a href="java script:popupWindow(\\\'' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_POPUP_IMAGE, 'pID=' . $product_info['products_id']) . '\\\')">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $product_info['products_image'], addslashes($product_info['products_name']), (MOPICS_RESTRICT_PARENT=='false'?'':SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH), (MOPICS_RESTRICT_PARENT=='false'?'':SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT), 'hspace="5" vspace="5"') . '<br>' . TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE . '</a>'; ?>');
//--></script>
<noscript>
<?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $product_info['products_image']) . '" target="_blank">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $product_info['products_image'], $product_info['products_name'], (MOPICS_RESTRICT_PARENT=='false'?'':SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH), (MOPICS_RESTRICT_PARENT=='false'?'':SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT), 'hspace="5" vspace="5"') . '<br>' . TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE . '</a>'; ?>
<?php // EOF: More Pics 6 ?>
</noscript>

 

where you see: (MOPICS_RESTRICT_PARENT=='false'?'':SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH)

and this: (MOPICS_RESTRICT_PARENT=='false'?'':SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT)

 

repace with the numeric width and height you require. hint: find 2 places for each.

 

hope that helps

yeah, I noticed that too, but did a replace string in the 'product_info.php' to reflect a third image. It may sound silly to do this but everything being sold on the site is our own personal artwork and I would like every image to be as pristine as possible.

 

The other issue is that if someone had a fully stocked shop before adding More Pics, they would have to re-upload every image with a thumbnail size before installing a package that assumes the named images are all thumbs and the larger images are extraneous.

This is exactly what I wanted to know as it gives me a better understanding of the mod and OSC in general, so thank you for that! :)

Many thanks for the instructions. I will try these modifications when I get a chance and update the thread.

Hi guys , well im very sorry coz i ve uploaded the cotrib 2 times to this site but the moderators rejected it because of copyrighting problems.

 

it seems to be that lightbox is not a opensource :angry: :angry: :'( :'(

 

if any one need this contrib with lightbox and auto thumbnail i can upload it to a free server and post the link here !!!

 

(surfalot i didn't add 9 images ive only fix the lightbox and the auto thumbnail creator to your exisitant More Pics 6 version )

Well the simple way around it is to upload all your files but take out the lightbox files but leave the lightbox 'instructions' in there... ie where to download and how to add to the morepics contribution.

surfalot, I have seen a site on the 'live shop' with what seems to be the more_pics contribution but with a modified function - it has a feature where the rolled-over images replace the larger product info page - as well allowing a pop-up

 

here's the link: Sex Toy Shop

 

I understand the pop-up part, it is from a different contribution, but can you please see the product info page and let me know if that is a modified version of more_pics or if that is something different because that may well be worth me trying to make possible for my own product info page.

 

Many thanks in advance.
