Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
My bad, it does not work in 4.1.3. I was thinking of another mod. I have Tried contacting Telafirma about 10 times to find out when it will be released for 4.1.x and have got no response from him.

Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I have this mod and have been attempting to install it for over 2 hours.
The instrustions are a bit out-dated. This is the stupidest question but what do I type to comment code out |

Answer #1: you search the forum for answers. Answer #2 because I'm in a good mood: {* this code is now commented out of a .tpl file *} // this code is commented out of php files /* this code is commented out of css files */ <!-- this code is also commented out of html or php files --> There are many variations. That's why you use a search engine. Do you really think most of the contributors here know everything? No, we know how to a) look it up and b) read the F-ing manual. |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I figured that one out!
However due to the instructions being so outdated I can not install this mod I have paid for. You can search for code in the tpl files and some of it is there nad some is not. As for your comment "read the F-ing manual" I have. Its people like you that steer other away from even using this board. Lighten up! |

Where's Telafirma? The last post by the owner of this topic is dated July 3rd.. So many unanswered questions ....

Maybe you can't find the correct code in the files because you're using the newest version of X-Cart 4.1.3. This version is still beta and probably not supported by the TeleFirma's mod. I know the code works for 4.0.17 and I geuss also for 4.0.18 / 4.0.19. The latest stable version is 4.0.19 at the moment. Hope this helps. |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
As I've been told by Telafirma, they are working on a version that works with 4.1.3
He told me that it is near finished, but since then have not heard from him :-( |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
yes I am using the newest version. Had too many issues setting up 4.0.19, shipping would work, taxes, etc.
|
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
what's the staus on the new version of this mod for 4.1.3 ? I have paid for the mod but can't use it with 4.1.3
|
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I'm sure Stephen will post here when the mod is compatible with 4.1
|
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I wanted to buy this mod and contacted them using their website...however haven't heard anything since last week! :(
|
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I too am waiting to hear something after placing an order.
Update: I had placed an order but my PayPal papyment didn't go through. Stephen got in touch and got me the mod very promptly. I got it installed this morning. Thanks Stephen. |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
After installing the mod, I no longer see the items I had under Detailed Images. And if I add a picture under Detailed Images, it replaces the mod's version of the thumbnail with the Detailed Images one and doesn't resize.
I'm sure I missed a step or something in the instructions. Can anyone help? |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
Did you try disabling the detailed pictures mod in the admin area? Go:
Admin - Modules - Detailed Product Images Uncheck the box and save. Maybe that will work and have the Telafirma mod take over. I don't have the Telafirma mod yet, waiting on the 4.1 version (anxiously) but disabling the detailed image mod might do the trick. let us know! Vera |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator

I'm nervous about trying this. I don't want to loose all the secondary detailed images I have loaded. I'll wait to see what Stephen suggests. |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I don't think you should disable the detailed images module.
I'm using the Image Mod, and I have the detailed images module activated. All images I upload to the detailed images section are resized by the settings of the TelaFirma mod. So I don't think you should disable it and take the risk to loose everyting. Hope this helps. |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I am still waiting to hear from them in regards to my query I had sent ages week or two ago...

Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator

Yes, but if you are looking at the Dynamic Image Generator, it doesn't work with the 4.1.x version of x-cart. |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
Any idea when this mod will be compatible with 4.1.x??
Thanks Ash |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
OK, another question.
If I'm trying to generate feeds (e.g. Froogle) or use the product export, the image path referenced is to the big one I uploaded, from which the cached images are derived. I'm looking for it to reference the smaller cached image but I'm having problems working out how a product is linked to it's cached image? Anyone know how or how I might get a table of product ID's to they're corresponding cache images? Thanks Dan |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I don't really know how you would do it, and don't really see a need to. I believe that google base (formerly froogle) makes its own thumbnails from your full size image. I'm not sure what it would do with a thumbnail instead.
Stephen at Telafirma told me that he was not going to work on a version for 4.1.x xcart until it was stable as one of the issues has to do with thumbnail generation. There is a thread at http://forum.x-cart.com/showthread.php?t=22308 that deals with this subject for version 4.1.x, you might check there. |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
Thanks, it might be OK for Froogle but for other feeds that I'm offering, say on the affiliate programs, the largest image is far too big.

Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
Thanks to Stephen for this mod and his help getting past an issue I had.
Two questions for the gallery: 1. The pop-up window generated by clicking the product picture on the product page has the following HTML title: <TITLE>X-CART. Powerful PHP shopping cart software</TITLE> How can I change that? 2. I'd like to place a variable in the products page code that will display the image name under the images. Anyone know how to do this? Thanks |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
Scott,
I don't have the code with me to give you exact details but this is how you can do what you are looking for. #1 the text "X-CART. Powerful PHP shopping cart software" is generally inserted into the code via a language variable. The fastest way to change this is to do a find and replace within all of your files for that string. Most likely it is in the main language file. Change it there and you will change it everywhere. #2. You say you want to display the image name, did you by chance mean the item name or product name? If you want to display the product name simply copy whatever variable displays the product name and insert it where you want it to appear. The best way to find this is the go into webmaster mode and click to edit the file that has the information you are looking to duplicate. Look at the html and find where the variable is. If you are looking to create a new variable called $ImageName or something like that you will need to declare that variable and tell the script what it is and how to interpret it. Hope this helps. |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
#1 The site title language variable was under Text txt_site_title. Thanks.
#2 I'm trying to get the actual image file name, but I don't know how to create a new variable called $ImageName. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I found a quirk. With X-SpecialOffers mod installed, there is a special thumbnail that isn't being resized. See this page for an example: http://www.hellyhansenusa.com/store/special-c-311.html

Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I've been trying to get in touch with telafirma to help me out with the following error that appears whenever a product thubmnail with a special offer is supposed to appear.
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 120 seconds exceeded in /home/flowersb/public_html/Smarty-2.6.9/plugins/function.thumb.php(2) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code on line 224 Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? The mod has been working perfectly for about 6 months now and all of a sudden products aren't appearing. Also is telafirma still in business? I've been trying to get in touch with them for a while. |

I asked him to do a rework on his mod (for $$ of course), he agreed, told me to send my login authentication information and poof! Gone! The thing that really puts the steam in my shorts is he encrypts his php files so now I can't even try to do it myself. Too bad, it is a great mod, but the support sux.... |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I would love this for 4.1 :(
|
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
same here.. waiting..

Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
For 4.1.x versions of x-cart, you might be better of using the other image generator, the cerdmann one. There is a thread at http://forum.x-cart.com/showthread.php?t=24233 that discusses this. Telefirma has stated that one of the problems with the 4.1.x version is the way images are handled, and he is not working on a mod until it is stable.
|
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
Would be nice if this mod can be customized so the detailed image will be showed as a light-box instead of a pop-up.
As the code of the mod is decoded we cannot edit the source ;( |

It uses Telafirma's cached thumbs, but not the fullsize image. All-in-all it's not bad. I'll post the code when I get a few minutes! You can see it work at http://www.autographedathlete.com |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator

Just checked your site. Looks very nice. Is it also possible to use the cached thumbs AND the cached rezided detailed images? That would be even more better. Cause I upload very large resolutions, and they're just resized to the settings. Can't wait to see the code :-) |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
I've been unsuccessful trying to get the "larger" images to the cached version. Although thickbox does do its own resizing. Here's what I did.
Completely replace the contents of thickbox_productpage.tpl with this: Code:
{if $images ne ""} Next, your product.tpl find: Code:
{* New Dynamic Image Mod - TelaFirma *} Code:
{if $product.tmbn_url} |
Re: TelaFirma - X-Cart Dynamic Image Generator
Hi ranger82nd,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I haven't got the thickbox files, likes images, js scripts etc.. Maybe I have overlooked something? Or should I download those thickbox files from somewhere? |
