Hello,
I'm trying to setup Magic Thumb to add videos for the products in the ECT Wordpress version. The instructions call for adding code to the proddetail.php file. I do not see that file on the FTP screen in the root folder. Are there different instructions for adding Magic Thumb to the WP version?

Thanks

Hi Ecart
If you set the Magic Toolbox parameter in your vsadmin/includes.php file then it is automatically setup in the wordpress version. Remember to make the parameter GLOBAL as for all WordPress parameters, for instance...

$GLOBALS['magictoolbox']='MagicZoomPlus';

Hi Vince,

I added $GLOBALS['magictoolbox']='MagicZoomPlus'; but I'm getting an image icon with a red circle and diagonal slash in the giant image field. On the website, the smaller images don't show and when I click the single image that is showing it goes to youtube.com and shows the video along with a list of other unrelated videos.

Thanks

Looking at your first post you're using Magic Thumb, so you would add $GLOBALS['magictoolbox']='MagicThumb'; to your vsadmin/includes.php file

Hi Phil,

I tried it both ways and the problem persists.

These are the instructions I received from Magic Tool Box tech support.

I see you have a WordPress website but have installed the generic HTML version.

If you use the WordPress version, you can display the YouTube video like so:

1. Create your gallery:

https://www.magictoolbox.com/magicthumb/modules/wordpress/#shortcodes

2. Click the 'Add video' button:

3. Enter the YouTube video url > Click 'Add' > Save change.

4. Refresh web page or insert shortcode into page/post > Video(s) appear as
thumbnails on WordPress page.

If you choose to continue using the generic HTML version of Magic Thumb, you can
display YouTube videos using the code in the 'Video lightbox' example here:

Phil is of course correct and it is Magic Thumb you said you are using. Could you set that parameter and then let me know the URL of your product detail page to check?
