Phoca Forum

I made a new, clean Joomla! 1.5.1 install on my drive.

Downloaded the latest Phocagallery zip file.

I installed and enabled it according to your instructions but it does not show as part of the listing in the Components Dropdown Menu.

I can't get to it to use it.

It is such a nice gallery when it does work.

Please... what next?

Thank you.

Hi, I don't understand

- what is enabling Phoca Gallery component?
- which Components Dropdown Menu do you mean?

- what is enabling Phoca Gallery component?
In Joomla's Control Panel... at the top of the screen:
Select Extensions tab --> select Plugin Manager:
In Plugin Manager screen:
Phoca Gallery Plugin is shown in the listing and to the right of it is the green checkmark indicating that it is not disabled... it is enabled... it is ready to be used.

- which Components Dropdown Menu do you mean?
In Joomla's Control Panel... at the top of the screen:
Select Menu --> Main Menu:
In the Main Menu screen select [font#006600]New green button with a + mark[/font].
In the Select Menu Item Type screen the Phoca Gallery Plugin is not listed.

Sorry... one more.
In my last posting the second item was showing that the Phoca Gallery Plugin is not available in the Select Menu Type listing.
Very sorry, my error.

In my last posting the second item was actually not answering your question of - which Components Dropdown Menu do you mean? So here it is...
In Joomla's Control Panel... at the top of the screen:
Select Components:
Phoca Gallery Plugin is not in the displayed listing.

Phoca Gallery Plugin cannot be displayed in components because it is not a component...

In Joomla you have:

component: Phoca Gallery with slideshow
module: Phoca Gallery Random Image, Phoca Gallery tree (Modules are displayed in the left or right of your site e.g.)
plugin: Phoca Gallery plugin... With this plugin you can add image from Phoca Gallery component into your article...


If you want to run plugin and module, you have to install Phoca Gallery Component...
