multiple images in JAK lightbox slideshow launched by module

[patfinegan]

I apologize in advance if I have overlooked something obvious. I would like to launch a JAK lightbox slideshow of all the images in a category when a user clicks on a single image in either a PhocaGallery image module or a slideshow plugin. I just want a single thumbnail (the first one) to appear on the content or module page.

My problem is that I seem to have to display thumbnails of all the images on the content or module page, not just the first one, if I want the popup slideshow to display them all.

Here is my slideshow plugin code:

{phocagallery view=category|categoryid=29|
limitstart=1|limitcount=1|detail=6|
displayname=1|displaydetail=1|
imageshadow=shadow1|float=left}

And here are the relevant settings for a mod_phocagallery_image attempt at the same effect:

Category ID(s): [category 29]
Image ordering: Ordering Ascending
Limit Start: 0
Limit Count: 1
Module Type: Default
...
Detail window: JAK Lightbox
JAK Lightbox Slideshow Delay: 5
JAK Lightbox:Title and Description

If I change the limit count to 32 (the number of photos in category 29), all the thumbnails appear on the content/module page. Is there a way to avoid this? Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I have just tested and unfortunately found no way to avoid this.
Kind regards,
Benno

Thank you for trying. It would be a nice feature.

Here's a link to what I wound up doing, http://deutschtreffen.de/joomla15/index ... u&Itemid=9. I constructed a 2-column table with my text on the left and a mosaic version of the gallery module on the right. It's a little cluttered, but otherwise fine.

Thank you again.
