[Solved] PicLens not showing original image

[progenitor]

How do I get the PicLens plugin to show the original image for the gallery?

I have the large images width set at 700px for the modal box, but the original images are at 1000px.
When viewing the images in piclens I notice the are blury If I click to view it in my browser I am take to:

/images/phocagallery/weddings/thumbs/phoca_thumb_l_05420013.jpg

This is the thumbnail created at 700px for the large if I'm right?

I'm attaching the settings from the Parameters page to check that I have it right.

Cheers

Did you change the parameters in Parameters Component (in menu link)

Hi, yes I have it set in both places.

The reason I ask is that from piclens if you click to open the URL it shows:
/images/phocagallery/weddings/thumbs/phoca_thumb_l_60x40.jpg

Where as I assumed the "original" would have been:
/images/phocagallery/weddings/60x40.jpg

Does this mean Phoca creates new images at the same original dimensions? If so if I change the size of the original image I need to also rebuild all thumbs?

No, Phoca should open the original image, I have tested it on my demo site now:

I set in Global Configuration (components - phoca gallery - gallery - parameters - piclens settings - piclens image = original image. Then I created PicLens RSS and got:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<rss xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" version="2.0">
    <channel>
        <atom:icon>https://www.phoca.cz/images/phoca-piclens.png</atom:icon>
        <item>
            <title>032</title>
            <link>/J154/images/phocagallery/thumbs/phoca_thumb_l_032.jpg</link>
            <media:thumbnail url="/J154/images/phocagallery/thumbs/phoca_thumb_l_032.jpg" />
            <media:content url="/J154/images/phocagallery/032.jpg" />
            <guid isPermaLink="false">1-phocagallerypiclenscode-032.jpg</guid>
        </item>
    </channel>
</rss>

I think you're right. I recreated my rss and the xml file looks to be point correctly

[Jan]

great to hear it (maybe the rss was created before this new feature was added into Phoca Gallery)
