Hi,
i have a question, i use the Phoca Gallery Plugin in different single articles. Now i have the problem that i want display not all pictures from a categorie.
I.e. the categorie (Id=2) has the pictures with the id 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
I will display only picture 1 and 10 at the beginning of the article, elsewhere 2,3 and 4 etc.
How can I parameterize this with the Phoca Gallery Plugin? I try this statment in the article
phocagallery view=category|categoryid=2|imageid=1|limitstart=0|limitcount=2|....... (sting not complete example)
and this
phocagallery view=category|categoryid=2|imageid=1|imageid=2|....... (sting not complete example)
But this statement does not work.
I have now tried to create other sub-categories. For all the images I want to display in a separate article category. In my example form the pictures 1 and 10 now a own sub-category.
I insert in different location in the artikel following plugin statements:
First place:
{phocagallery view=category|categoryid=128|limitstart=0|limitcount=0|detail=6|displayname=0|displaydetail=0|displaydownload=0|displaybuttons=0|displaydescription=1|displayimgrating=0}
Second place:
{phocagallery view=category|categoryid=129|limitstart=0|limitcount=0|detail=6|displayname=0|displaydetail=0|displaydownload=0|displaybuttons=0|displaydescription=1|displayimgrating=0}
The second statement does not work and shows me no detail window (it is only one image in own sub-categories).
Greetings
Andreas

Re: Phoca Gallery Plugin Question
Hi, the plugin loads the image items from database, so you can set the start and the end, if you want to display specific images, you should order them in Phoca Gallery administration e.g. 1,2,3,4 and then set the limitstart from zero to 3.
So in fact if you want to display selected images, just order them in administration (in case you want to display them in a group)
You can display the images a themselves but then all images will be below each other - not in one row.

Re: Phoca Gallery Plugin Question
Hi Jan
thank you for your help, i found now a solution, i create a own category for every picture group. And for single pictures i use the imagedid=x command.
But now i have a other problem the detail window is every time to small and shows me a vertical and horizontal scrollbar. I use the 6 - JAK lightbox.
The window should be little bit bigger for complete displaying all contents (buttons and so on).

Hi, to set the JAK lightbox somehow larger, I think, you need to customize the javascript/css directly in the code
