how to add ability to upload multiple images for a product in zen cart? - zen-cart

How can I add the ability of uploading multiple images for a product from the admin side.
I have search for it and found that upload an image from the admin side and then for adding additional images you should upload it through ftp.
But I did not want this. I want that admin should be able to upload multiple images from the admin panel for a single product.
How will I do this?

Which version of Zen Cart are you using? If you're using 1.3.x then you should install Image Handler (found in the official Free Add Ons section). Unfortunately, IH is currently not compatible with 1.5.0 admin section (although the frontend functionality will work). From what I know, there's currently nothing you can do with 1.5.0 except code the funcionality yourself.

There is now an updated Image Handler available for v1.5.0. http://www.zen-cart.com/plugins
There are other addons such as "Image Manager" which allow for additional admin-side image management.

How to change backend layout in Typo3 7.2?

I am new to typo3, i am trying to create a new backend layout for my home page.I need add few custom sections to edit contents.I am not able to find option to do so.
TYPO3 7.2 is out of support and has know security issues. Please update to 7.3 at least.
You can create backend layout records in any folder in the page tree. To select those backend layouts, you have to add this folder as the general record storage in the page properties of the page where you want to use your backend layout.
I suggest you take a look into the Getting started tutorial which will walk you through your first steps.
http://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/GettingStartedTutorial/
In case you use a distribution, it might be that the backend layout is added in another way, e.g. via TSconfig or directly using PHP. Please consult the according documentation of the distribution in this case.
Figured out myself.
Go to List in Web, then click on add new + icon, then select Backend Layout under System Records.

add functionality layer to AtTask by plug-in on Internet Explorer

I would like to add functionality to the AtTask system by "adding a layer".
What I want to know is whether this can be achieved with a plug-in for Internet Explorer.
To give a concrete example:
This extra layer would allow users to click on "Online Edit" document (which is not available right now). The linked application will open, and when you click save, the file is loaded back to AtTask.
All this happens in the background via the AtTask API, and is transparent to the user.
The question is: is it possible to add functionality to a site by somehow adding layers?
Last comment: this plug-in (or whatever needs to be installed inbto the browser) will only be visible/active when accesing the AtTask website.
Thanks in advance for your responses.
Within the confines of AtTask your best bet is to use an "External Page" create a service that handles the data in the manner you need.
The Dashboard that contains your External Page can be added as a tab via Layout Templates.
Most of the heavy lifting would have to be handled by your application. You would have to link the document(s) you wish to edit.
Some sort of referrer would be necessary to place the revised document back into AtTask. The method in which the client can do this would be determined by your preference and requirements. I am sure you can find some sort of Wiz-Bang jQuery uploader.
Depending on the level of control you have with your user base, you could make an Application URL
Windows : Registering an Application to a URI Scheme
OS X : Launching Scripts from Webpage Links
I do not know of any other way to handle this other than what Steve suggested.
Having said that a possible solution to this is to create a new application and iframe in AtTask.
At the top or wherever on the page your application could have a link for "Online Edit". Then you would use javascript to extract the task id, project id or any other needed information you need for the api to get the needed content to edit. Then save using the same api information.
I have not tried this type of method but theoretically it could work.

Sitecore BrightCove Installation Issue

On Installing Brightcove on Sitecore,Import action is not seen and the templates from bright cove is also not seen as per the installation document.
Details are as below:
Sitecore Installed: Sitecore 7.1 rev. 130926.exe
Packages Installed:
Sitecore Media Framework 1.2 rev. 131220.zip
Sitecore Media Framework Brightcove Edition 1.2 rev. 131220.zip
Below is the screen shot after installation
Any Idea on why I am not able to see these??
You need to create an account before you see any of those things. The process of adding an account is in chapter 3 of the administrators guide.
Select item /sitecore/media library/Media Framework/Accounts
Through insert option click Brightcove Account
In popup window give the appropriate name or use default name
In the created brightcove account item set the following fields (Publisher Id, Read Token, Write Token)
Now under Media Framework ribbon you can do Import, Cleanup, Export.
But you can do Import and Cleanup if Brightcove account item or items under this account are selected, in other case, these two buttons will be disabled.

Platform for User Created Content

I'm working on a new project where I'd like users to be able to add content. The site is a project collaboration site where users can, sign up and create a profile, post a project idea (give it a name, some details and upload a couple of pictures, etc.), and hit a create button. The project would then be featured as a thumbnail on a Projects page where others could comment on the project and review the submitted idea.
Would a CMS be suitable for an application such as this? The user content would be added on the front end, so users wouldn't necessarily be able to access the control panel to add content so I'm not sure if a CMS would work or not.
I was taking a look at PyroCMS as I have some familiarity with PHP and CI but I don't know if this would fit the bill.
Any thoughts? Thank you!
This is absolutely doable with Pyro CMS Pro or by adding on the Streams extension. That would allow you to create the front-facing pages without any programming. You can create any number of custom fields to allow this.

Component not showing in frontend on Joomla! 1.7

I have successfully installed a plugin called "Plotalot", which draws flashcharts, on my Joomla! 1.7.
I have unfortunately installed the free version of it because I want to be sure it's useful, and the free version comes with the component-tool only and not with the plugin (It's cheap, but I hate purchasing stuff that's not worth using).
With the component-tool on the backend site I'm able to create new charts, edit existing charts and I'm also capable of seeing a demonstration of the chart that I just made on the backend site.
But, when I try to see the chart on the frontend site, I only see the tags which I wrote in an Article and no chart. In this case: {plotalot id="1"}
I've been in touch with this customer support guy on this matter, and all he can say is that it should be a chart when i write {plotalot id="1"} if there's a chart with the ID=1. Which it does
Does anyone have any experience on how plugins or component-tools in Joomla! 1.7 works and how they can be displayed in an Article?
I would very much appreciate if someone can help me :)
Kind regards, Steve-O
I'm also a Plotalot user. Your question does not make sense. If you installed the free version, you did not install a plugin, you installed a component. Plotalot does not draw flash charts, it draws Google charts. If you want a chart in an article, buy the plugin. And read the user guide, it explains all of this very clearly.
you have to use some tags in the article in which you want to display the charts.The tags will be explained in the documentation of the plug in
eg:we use {flashchart data="50,60,70,80,90,60|109,120,100,130,140,100"} sample01{/flashchart}
to display flash chart.
