I have gotten everything working with ZOOM and OpenSef but the zoomthumb feature. I can get to the zoomthumb screen and select a gallery. The URL redraws but no thumbnails appear. I can't figure out what is wrong. Please help me through this.

Hi,

Could you try it with plain SEF? In other words, try it without my extension and see if it works. If it doesn't work I'll have to direct you to zoomfactory.org. I know there are a lot of things broken with SEF and zOOm Gallery still.

Let me know.

Thanks,
Darren

Re: Sef_EXT and Zoomthumb

Hi thank you for the fast reply. Your plugin is incredible and works great!

I have been using Zoom for a while now and have relied on the zoomthumb feature for sites in the past. Zoomthumb works with regular Joomla SEF but when used with the plugin the zoomthumb screen will appear but when I click on one of the galleries the address bar will read this depending on gallery...

...Video-and-Images/zoomthumb/step2/Pictures/Autos/Porsche_Mirage

...and the screen will remain on the gallery select but will not display thumbs. I have been testing and can't figure it out. For now I've hacked the zoomthumb.php and changed 2 lines from sefReltoAbs('index.php? to sefReltoAbs('index2.php? to allow users to calculate thumbs without turning off your product but would like to set the code back to maintain the hidden URLs.

Thanks again for the time!

Hi mejim707,

I fixed your problem and some other things too.

Regarding your hack of zoomthumb I did it this way:

Code:

//DD012807
// echo '<form name="zoomthumbform" action="'.(($zoom->_isBackend) ? "index2.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid=".$Itemid."&task=step4&catid=".$row1->catid."&imgid=".$imgid."&page=zoomthumb" : sefReltoAbs('index.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid='.$Itemid.'&task=step4&catid='.$row1->catid.'&imgid='.$imgid.'&page=zoomthumb')) .'" method="POST">';
echo '<form name="zoomthumbform" action="'.(($zoom->_isBackend) ? "index2.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid=".$Itemid."&task=step4&catid=".$row1->catid."&imgid=".$imgid."&page=zoomthumb" : 'index.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid='.$Itemid.'&task=step4&catid='.$row1->catid.'&imgid='.$imgid.'&page=zoomthumb') .'" method="POST">';
//

I don't think we should have to do this hack. I think maybe I should be copying the $POST variables when I am converting the URL but the sample I built this extension from didn't do this. I haven't seen any examples of that either. Do you or does anyone know or have an opinion on that?

Thanks,
Darren

Re: Sef_EXT and Zoomthumb

Yeh, this is a better hack as it keeps everything within the page. So there is no other solution for this I guess. I will continue to dig. I'm new to SEF so I may not know what I'm looking for. Yes, please, if anyone has any suggestions let us know. Thanks for the time on this Darren996!
