Thumbnails not opening?

[rtank]

Hi everybody...I'm new here and I hope you can help me through a couple of issues I'm experiecing with Phoca Gallery.

First issue...
But let's start from the scratch first:

-There is a Menu named "Pics" including a voice menu "_ _" as a section;
-The "_ _" section leads to the "_ _" category;
-The "_ _" category displays a number of articles;
-This articles have to include a preview image of the specific image gallery they're related to;
-The first article should contain images about (for istance) the _ _ team "Manchester United";

-In images/phocagallery, I've created a folder named "_ _" and a subfolder named "Manchester United";
-I've uploaded the images needed through FTP to the path "/images/phocagallery/_ _/manchester_united";
-In components>phoca gallery>categories I've created a folder "_ _" and a subfolder "manchester united", assigning the previously uploaded images to it;
-I created an article named "Manchester United", linked to the proper section and provided with a "{phocagallery view=categories}" in order to display categories;

I've been testing the front-end and the article is showing the image preview, it lets you into the thumbnails gallery, but once I try to open one of them thumbnails, a 404 error "resource not found" pops up??

The second issue is about the back button: I'd like the users to be brought back to the article listing instead of the gallery folders listing as it's configured right now.

The third issue is about the phoca text branding. I've red there are some files that can be made available upon donation which can hide the branding. Is that true?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

Hi,

first issue: see https://www.phoca.cz/documents/14-phoca- ... ery-plugin

second issue: it's not possible as far as I know. I guess it would be hard to make this possible, because when you open the category, there is no link with the article anymore. Jan might know more about it

third issue: yes it's true. Contact Jan about it: info [at] phoca [dot] cz - You can choose now what to display, the logo (only), the version (only) or the seal.

Regards, Carolien

Thanks a lot for the quick reply, Carolien

I'll go checking the faq for the first issue (EDIT: Works like a charm!!! THANKS A LOT! )

and I hope Jan can help with the second issue, since it could be crucial for the choice of phocagallery as my website's gallery component

As for the third issue, the answer is "nothing at all" ...Hope those files can achieve that

Thanks again!

second: as I wrote into the e-mail message, it is difficult to find the back link so Phoca try to find the categories view in joomla site (mostly the categories view itemid) and try to use this itemid as back link... it is very problematic to find the itemid of the article ....

Thanks for the (private and public) answer, Jan
That's exactly what I want the Phoca back-button to do: I don't wanna be brought to the article itself but to the category containing that article(s) (or the previously visited page)...So, as long as a category ID is available, I assume that it's possible...Am I wrong?

yup, we're talking about two kinds of categories.

One is the Joomla! content categories - where you have sections and articles and the other are the Phoca Gallery categories. Phoca Gallery tries to find the itemid of the Phoca Gallery category. You want to return to the content category. A Phoca Gallery category has no relation with a Joomla! category - so it's the same problem as returning to an article I think.
