I'm finding that after playing with override codes for zstore, that they are needed if you have all/most of your products setup in product lines. just fyi.

I am having the "no image" bug as well. Turning on cache is a workaround.

I noticed that when I view the image properties my domain (htp://www.eternal-revolution.com/) is being appended before the zazzle image url.

I myself had the http://www.domain.com/http://www.Image_Link issue.

I opened the zstore-helper.php and searched for

Quote:
$zstore_buff = preg_replace('/\<img src\="(.*)" class\="realviewImage" alt\="(.*)" title\="(.*)" style\="(.*)" (.*)\>


here I replaced the src="(.*)" with src="$imageSrc" which is from the store builder code

Quote:
$zstore_buff = preg_replace('/\<img src\="$imageSrc" class\="realviewImage" alt\="(.*)" title\="(.*)" style\="(.*)" (.*)\>


In my case the images work now without caching as well.

Because I have "permalinks" set up, doing that caused my images not to show.
Just FYI,

Is anyone here successfully using this plug-in?
Can I see an example of it on your site?
I think I may just be doing something wrong...

Who do you have your website hosted with?

Myself and the plugin developer worked with a Zazzler yesterday to get the plugin working on their website. 98% of people have it working but yesterday we discovered that if you have a website with Godaddy it causes the plugin to malfunction... Something to do with godaddy not recognizing one command... A perfectly valid command which is recognized by most webhosts.

With developing the plugin on Dreamhost and not experiencing any problems we were unaware of the problem. There isn't an update though as it is server dependant... I think he's going to include the fix in the instructions.

Double check you have all the settings set up correctly and if you still have no joy, drop the developer a form on the website. as I'm not much good when it comes to code, I'm just the driving force behind it. Laughing

You can also see an example of the plugin working on page 2 of the plugin over at ReturnTrue. The website is runs on Wordpress version 2.8.5 on a Dreamhost linux server.

Edited to correct information about plugin update.

Thanks so much Lisa Marie.
The developer, Paul, updated his files and I redownloaded the package.
It works!
It's so simple and easy to use.

When I have an *organized site* of some importance, I'll be glad to post the link here. Right now, I'm trying to get all of that together.
I would still love to see examples from other people using this plug-in to get some ideas. Smile

I think something must be wonky with the way Zazzle gets the products. I did a test to make it get 5 christmas cards... 4 were christmas, 1 was of a cat in a sink. I checked the product to see if I'd made a goof and had added christmas in the tags or description by mistake but I hadn't.

I'll run it by Paul later today and get back to you. I have a feeling that it's on Zazzle's end though.

Yes, I think so too.
All Christmas links seem to be working now.

Thanks Terry Smile and... It would be a godsend if I was using Wordpress! Laughing

I've never used the plugin. I integrated zstore with wordpress myself the hard way and thought... "hang on"... "I might be able to do this but there's lots of people out there who probably wouldn't know" so I had Paul (my bro) to develop the plugin for all of you guys! Grin

The only time I used it was to beta test it because by then I'd changed how my website worked and moved my zstore to a subdomain... Some months later I rebuilt my website by hand using Kohana PHP Framework to give the illusion that I was using Wordpress. My zstore is offlimits as I'm redoing it to match my new website it'll be part zstore part do-it-yourself.

I've got a wordpress zazzle blog at http://purrfect-gifts.lisa-marieart.com which doesn't use the zstore plugin... yet! I haven't updated it in a while but when I do I'll be giving it a revamp to change the way it works and use the plugin.

I'm actually thinking about putting my website back in to Wordpress!... I'm busy working on a Wordpress site for someone using the new beta 2.9 and the things I wanted to do which forced me to build my site myself are now available in Wordpress!

Just my luck!

Just to let you know that the zstore wordpress plugin has now been updated to add the new products available on Zazzle such as binders & letterheads. Also a few bugs have been fixed.

Get your updated version from Return True as you can't update it through Wordpress itself. Smile

I've determined that *Zazzle* may be holding up this plug-in from being a great tool.
If they could get their feeds to read about 3X quicker it would be great for me.
Yes, I've reduced the number of items shown per page (but I would like to increase them 2x!).
In the mean time I'm stuck with slow loading pages (server working great at 1:50am).
