sometimes the zoom is working but on top of the image its shown

Hi,

it has this problem, 'cause it takes itemid=38 instead of itemid=36. So it takes the settings of another menu item, which is for registered users only.

I though that the menu-item with the lowest ordering is taken, but I'm not sure about that... (or it is the categories view which is taken first).

A solution for your problem could be to create a new menu item as category list layout, which you place in a hidden menu item, but published and open to public.

this hidden module is also there, based on the other two threads i tried this, but without success.
i changed the code to overwrite the itemid with 0, this works for me. Thanx for the hint with 36<->38

for what is this id good?

Hi,

it's the menuitem id, so with this Id you could see which menu item it's taking. If you disable the menu-item with id 38, I think your problems are solved (but this menu item isn't visible).

Regards Carolien

i used for the zoomed view the light box, so there is no menu-item needed

i think for general solving this bug, it would be better to make this as a parameter (for the plugin)
or in the plugintag {phocagallery|itemid:36|...} or something like that ?
