Phoca Forum

Hi,
in order to add a single image inside an article it seems that I need the "Phoca Photo Content plugin" but it seems that only the J4 version is available.

Am I missing something?

Is this good even for J5?
Is there the chance to have a button like we have for the gallery?
Thanks,
M

Hi,
yes, so far no Phoca Photo Content plugin has been released, but the J4 plugin should also work with enabled backwards compatibility plugin:



Kind regards,

The plugin can be installed with no problem but I'm not sure which is the easiest way to add a single image in my article.
Is the there a webpage where is explained easily how to do it?
This one could be ok if an example is provided:

Thanks for your effort and the quick reply.

Hi,

ok, sorry, last question. In the link you provide me, at the end, this is the example:
{phocaphoto view=category|id=4}

but this is to see a category, right? Maybe is something that the gallery button plugin help to write, but what about a SINGLE photo.

Sorry and thanks again.

Hi, this displays all images from category 4. If you need to display only one image, just add it to specific category with one image. Or order this image as first in the category and use the max parameter to limit it:

{phocaphoto view=category|id=4|max=1}

ok thanks for the reply.
But is there a way to specific a single image in a category without moving it inside the category?
I have a category where the image inside should be used in different article, how can specify in article X to show picture Z and in article Y to show picture W. The two pictures belong to the same category in this case.

Hi, there is no such option, for this, the plugin code needs to be customized - to load only specific image. The basic function of the plugin is to display group of images in article. In fact nobody count with displaying only one image which in fact can be displayed standard way in article - per image pasting into article. This is the difference between one image and more images. One image is mostly pasted as whole, where there are more images, you need to have thumbnails and e.g. modal to show details - this is the purpose of such plugins.
