No lightbox with swiping to next picture on mobile phone

[Robert.Trum]

Hello all,

unfortunately I have an issue with the Phoca Gallery displaying on a mobile phone.
When I visit the website and click on a thumbnail, on my notebook there opens a lightbox, and I can click to the next picture by pressing the > button.

On a mobile phone the picture opens in a new window, but I cannot swipe or click to the next picture.
Which settings do I need in phoca gallery component options?

- Website using Phoca gallery 4.4.3 on Joomla 3.9.8
- Windows 10 and Google Chrome on notebook -> OK
- Android and Google Chrome on mobile phone -> not OK

Thank you in advance for your support.

Robert

Hi Robert,

First of all: Your Joomla version is 2 years old (2019!).
Joomla will probably suggest to you that it is up to date.

But: No update is offered for your old version Joomla 3.9.8, because that was a bug that was solved with Joomla 3.9.12.
(https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/pull/25923).

Therefore do the following:
Extensions > Manage > Update > Components > Clear Cache.
After that you will be offered the update (Joomla 3.10.10).

When all this is done, possibly a link to the page so that we can see what is meant. Also the template can play a role and which Detail View you use in Phoca.

Kind regards
Christine

Hello Christine,
thanks alot for your quick response!
Now I first updated Joomla to 3.10.10 and also updated all of the extensions.
The website is:
www.entlebucher-zucht.de
Klick at "Bildergalerie" in German version or "Picture gallery" in English version.

Hallo Robert,

Dadurch, dass Du die Seite geschickt hast, kann man sehen, dass Du: slimbox verwendest. Und Ja, diese ist nicht für mobil geeignet.

Würde daher empfehlen: Photoswipe zu verwenden. Auch schon in Hinblick auf Joomla 4 (später). Da einige Detail View wegfallen werden. Schalte da mal um. Wahrscheinlich musst Du dann nochmals Thumbnails neu generieren. Siehst Du dann eh.

Liebe Grüße
