More Piclens Suipport

[zubo]

Hi all

My site is Joomla 1.5 using phoca gallery 1.8.0 alpha. Browser = Firefox 3.0b5. I had enabled Piclens BUT when I clicked on the blue piclens control Piclens said my site had not been prepared for Piclens or similar.

Reading the docs it says that not only do you need to enable Piclens you actually need to go to their site and install their (Joomla???) extension.
There is NO mention of Joomla on their site nor the extension.

So for all of you who have it working - how??? or rather where is the extension....

thanks

See manual:
https://www.phoca.cz/phocagallery/user-m ... ns-support

If user have installed PicLens on his browser, he get the slideshow in 3D, if not, he get the slideshow not in 3D (but only with the slideshow stard button)

Thanks for that - I misread the manual - I had thought that it said get a Joomla extension from the Piclens guys not a browser extension.

That is a shame because it means that you always need to tell anyone using your site to go and download an extension to use Piclens - because without the browser extension you cannot use their functionality....

No... if user has installed PicLens, he gets the 3D slideshow...
if user doesn't have installed PicLens, he gets the external slideshow from PicLens (no 3D)

You need not to tell users, they should install PicLens... If someone uses PicLens, he will be excited, that he can see images in 3D ... If someone doesn't, he get the external slideshow... If he doesn't want to see external slideshow, he can see the image in standard slideshow (modal or popup box) or you can enable the swap image behaviour ... this is powerful variability ...
