Displaying Cooliris 3D Wall
You can set a view for Cooliris 3D Wall in Phoca Gallery. Go to Menu Manager - e.g. Main Menu - Create new menu link. Select menu item type:
Phoca Gallery - Cooliris 3D Wall Layout. In Parameters (Basic) you should select the category which images should be displayed in Coolirs slideshow (the RSS file needs to be created for this category in Phoca Galelery - Category).
