I've tried both and no image just code like below

{phocagallery view=category|categoryid=5|imageid=25|type=1}

Button plug in is enabled.

Awesome :-) I figured my tired eyes were getting me into stupid land and my nose was right on it but not seeing.....lol

Next question -

How do I place in an article a image bigger than the thumbs in the gallery? Gallery thumbs are the standard size. In my articles I would like to insert a image that's 400px wide by 200px high that maybe popups to the large size.

Basically I'm trying to use the same images in the gallery for the articles so can down on the number of images.

Btw I'm a old Gallery user going back to the days of Post Nuke. I'm really impressed with Phoca Gallery as it makes including galleries in a site a snap. Easy to teach people on how to use too.

Many thanks and cheers...

Hi,
sorry, there is no way to resize thumbs with Phoca Gallery Plugin. But you can delete your thumbs in Phoca Gallery and create new ones with other sizes. See: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... w-resizing

Thank you for the links as I have been able to learn and use some of the info.

I found using images that are rectangles throws off the windows in PG. Hence I had to tweak the code to get want I sort of wanted. You can see at the below link where I am trying to go with the Princeton Air Show

http://www.princetonairshow.ca/index.ph ... &Itemid=34

In using images of planes, boats and trains a rectanglar seems to work best. Hence the use of the 200 x 100 thumbs with pop ups. Doing the redo of size on the thumgs caused the thumbs in the backend to go from 100x100 to 50x25 when re-generated but we can live with that. Also had to place the content and PG code in tables to get the alignment I wanted.

One of the key benefits the users of the site get out of this is being able to use PG images to place in articles versus having to create other images in J core for articles. Get time saver for sure and hope with more tweaking to get it better.

btw how do I add a headshot to my forum profile?

Cheers......

Sorry, I was off topic but I wanted to know how to put a avatar into my PG profile here.....I can't seem to find the upload button.

Also in the PG forum how do you mark a thread as "solved" as I think this one is :|

Only administrators and moderators can do this.
