All sorts of problems with Rokzoom, Lightbox, Slimbox ...

  • All sorts of problems with Rokzoom, Lightbox, Slimbox ...

    • Hi Forum

      I've read elsewhere on the forums here about various problems with the lovely pop-up methods like Lightbox and I'm wondering ... is there an inherent problem with conflicting scripts in some templates?

      Today I've struggled and failed to get firstly, Rokzoom to work on a site using Replicant, nor can I get Lightbox or Slimbox to work on that site, also I can't gt Lightbox to work on a Simplix site.

      My method of implementing Lightbox (which works fine on many other site's I've worked on) is via the JCE Image plug-in. I like this way because it's fairly easy to keep control of appearance and layout.

      Any suggestions please, how I can check I've got all the essential files in place to get these features working?

      Thanks
      Jon

    • RokZoom and JCE "won't" work. Most causes are inter-library/version javascript conflict.

    • I wonder... I'm at the moment searching why the mambot utility form JCE with Rokzoom is only working in rockettheme templates with rokzoom in it.
      If I remove the link to rokzoom map inside index.php the jce Rokzoom will not work.
      If I use a simple "not" rockettheme without rokzoom and use the mambot of jce to rockzoom it will not work... huhhhhhhh

      I'm working in this already the day to thinks this out

    • Hello James, yes the Mambot utility new version has rokzoom but ... it does not work. It only works when you use a rockettheme template somehow. :o
      If I use an old version, without rokzoom, than that what looks at rokzom, but did not zoom (ha ha ha) works.

    • That is because the mambot is not RokZoom, it is just a facilitator. You will need to follow the integration tutorials.

    • What is the proper method for removing Rokzoom? I used the

      $enable_rokzoom = "false";

      but I am still getting conflicts with RokZoom.

      Thanks,

    • you could remove the whole script from the index.php:
      <?php if($enable_rokzoom=="true") :?>
           <link href="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/<?php echo $mainframe->getTemplate(); ?>/rokzoom/rokzoom.css" 
      rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
           <?php endif; ?>

    • Thanks Robert!

      I also have these references:
      <style type="text/css">
      img { behavior: url(<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/<?php echo $mainframe->getTemplate(); ?>/css/iepngfix.htc); }
      .alpha-shadow div { filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/<?php echo $mainframe->getTemplate(); ?>/rokzoom/shadow2.png', sizingMethod='crop'); background: none; }
      </style>

      and
      <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/<?php echo $mainframe->getTemplate(); ?>/rokzoom/rokzoom.js"></script>

      and
      Rokzoom.init({
      imageDir: '<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/<?php echo $mainframe->getTemplate(); ?>/rokzoom/images/',
      resizeFX: {
      duration: 1500,
      transition: Fx.Transitions.Circ.easeOut,
      wait: false
      }
      });
      });
      </script>

      When I try to remove these references the template breaks with errors. How should these edits be made?
