After installing the Magic Zoom plug-in would I have to edit or change any product images? Right now most of my products use a small (150 pixel wide) and large (800 pixel) images with many products having multiple large and small images. Thanks.

You will want to have a giant image of you want to enlarge the image on the product details page.

Purchased and installed Magic Zoom Plus according to ECT directions and nothing is changed.

Here's what I did:

Added just above </head>

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="magiczoomplus/magiczoomplus.css"/>

<script type="text/javascript" src="magiczoomplus/magiczoomplus.js"></script>

Added magiczoomplus folder to root directory

Added the following to includes.php

$magictoolbox="MagicZoomPlus";

Can you help?

What version of the site are you on?
Are you wanting to use magiczoomplus on the product pages and/or the product detail pages?
Also make sure you uploaded the includes file to your vsadmin folder.

Check to be sure the files are in place
http://www.yoursite.com/magiczoomplus/magiczoomplus.css
http://www.yoursite.com/magiczoomplus/magiczoomplus.js

(opening those pages should show you the css and js code)

Ecommerce Plus PHP v6.5.5
All files are in place.

I just added a "giant image" to one product in admin and the zoom works for the product details page only. At least until you click on the + sign and then the entire website freezes up. This is bad!

Go here and click on the + zoom cursor and the site freezes up!
http://www.grabbarspecialists.com/proddetail.php?prod=992-GBS-1-12-ALM-SMOOTH-PDR

I also don't even want to view zoom in on an image from the product details page. Those images are large enough. I just want to zoom on images in products page. There are no instructions on doing that that I can find. And freezing up the website is really not a good thing!

Hi Bob88
There seems to be a javascript error in the Magic Toolbox code. I'm not saying it's their fault, but the people at Magic Toolbox are pretty great at pointing out where the problem area is so can you do me a favour and report this to their support and they can get in touch with me if need be at the usual address (vince AT ecommercetemplates DOT com).

I did as you said and forwarded your message to Magic Zoom support.

But what about being able to use the zoom mod in products.php page instead of in proddetail.php. Is this possible? And would I have to put 8,000 product images from "large image" to "giant image" to get it to work at all?

Maybe I should I just apply for a refund from them?

Thanks

Hi Bob, Magic toolbox has some of the best image tools and provides excellent support, so you should wait to hear back from them. You can use it on the product page using the following parameter in the vsadmin/includes

the MagicToolbox features will appear on the product detail page but if you would also like to show them on the products.php page, set the following...

$magictoolboxproducts="MagicZoomPlus";

Change "magicZoomPlus" for the image effect you are using. A full set of parameters are available on our MagicToolbox help page.

F.Y.I. Magic Zoom solution was as follows:

There is no need to insert reference to magiczoomplus.js file as ECT should do
that automatically since you inserted code in the /vsadmin/includes.php file.

I removed

<script type="text/javascript" src="magiczoomplus/magiczoomplus.js"></script>

from my <head> and it worked.

Searched all aver and cannot find the information to edit the Magic Zoom Plus parameters. Like the size of the box when you mouse over the image, etc. I assume these are includes code. Can you direct me? Thanks.

Hi Bob88
I think what you need are the $magictoolboxoptions as on this page...
https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/help/magictoolbox.asp
This is an interface to the parameters that Magic Toolbox make available.

There's a list of "tweaks" on Magic Zoom like this

<a href="large.jpg" class="MagicZoom"><img src="small.jpg"></a>

but where do you put the code? In the zoom css file or in the ect style.css?

Thanks.

Hi you would not use the code on Magic toolbox site we do have parameters that go in the vsadmin/includes that can be used https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/help/magictoolbox.asp#css

I'm trying to get the pop-up image box that opens when you mouse-over the product image to be bigger. I added the following to includes.php but when I change 75px to 450px nothing happens.

$thumbnailstyle="width:75px;padding:3px;margin:3px;border: 1px solid #ccc;";
$thumbnailstyle="width:450px;padding:3px;margin:3px;border: 1px solid #ccc;";

Hi the parameter should only be in the file once, instead of trying 450 try something smaller like 150 or 250.

I have the line of code in the includes only once. What I showed you last was the original code and then what I changed it to.

I tried a smaller value but it again made no difference.

Yipes! this shouldn't be so difficult.

Hi Bob88
For the products pages (as opposed to the product detail pages) this parameter...
$thumbnailstyle
...would be...
$thumbnailstyleproducts
For instance...
$thumbnailstyleproducts="width:75px;padding:3px;margin:3px;border: 1px solid #ccc;";
I think you are setting this up on the products pages so this could be why you are having problems.

Yes, I'm setting Magic Zoom Plus up for products not product details pages.

When I add $thumbnailstyleproducts="width:175px;padding:3px;margin:3px;border: 1px solid #ccc;";

or

$thumbnailstyleproducts="width:400px;padding:3px;margin:3px;border: 1px solid #ccc;";

Nothing changes.

Hi Bob88
I've had another read of your post and...
quote:
I'm trying to get the pop-up image box that opens when you mouse-over the product image to be bigger.
I don't think you are using thumbnails on the products page at all. To do that you would need to add this parameter...
$thumbnailsonproducts=TRUE;
...and that's why the $thumbnailstyleproducts parameter is having no effect. To change the options for the Magic Toolbox the parameter you need is...
$magictooloptionsproducts
...as explained on this page...

I don't want"thumbnails". Like I said before, all I want to do is make the Magic Zoom box that pop-ups when you mouse-over an image in products.php page larger. I'll try and contact Magic Zoom again.
