Two small Administrator issues
Posted: 12 Nov 2010, 11:49
Hi, I've been playing with the Phoca Gallery component/plugin today, and have come up with a few small issues:
1) When going to look at the Phoca Gallery Component, and choosing 'Categories', the categories seem to disappear. In the filter dropdown it said 'select state', and when I changed that to "Published", the categories appeared. So somewhere it seems to be filtering on the published state, even though I have 'select state' in the dropdown, which would (to me) indicate to not filter on state if that's selected.
2) I have a Gallery Category main menu item that lists the galleries, which works fine. However, I want to add another gallery that is NOT published, that I can then use via the plugin. This all seems to work fine with one problem... if the Category is marked as not published, you get a 404 error when clicking on an image listed in that gallery. i.e. I have an unpublished gallery called Artists. This has a load of images in it, and if I click on any of them (in admin) I get a 404 error. As soon as I make the Artists category published, they link to the image works. Is there a way of fixing this so that I can still leave Artists as an unpublished gallery
3) when I use the plugin to link to a gallery image, is it possible to add an option to NOT display the previous and next images, and also the start slideshow button? In my instance, I have a profile page for artists, and rather than embed an image in the text, I thought I'd use the gallery plugin, but this then shows the buttons to scroll through all images in the gallery, and if I only put one image on the page, I don't really want them to.
Hope this all makes sense!
