I've done a quick research of "alias" word in forum and do not found result connected with my problem.
I've found that aliases of images names generated by Phocagallery are very strange.
Examples:
Code: Select all
filename | name -> alias
news/1/ALPA_Dreamworlds_Holzherr.jpg | ALPA_Dreamworlds_Holzherr -> l-_-_
news/1/ALPA_Dreamworlds_Holzherr.jpg | ALPA_Dreamworlds -> _-_
news/1/ALPA_Dreamworlds_Holzherr.jpg | Mlotek -> l-_-_
news/1/ALPA_Dreamworlds_Holzherr.jpg | Ala ma kota i psa -> _-_
news/1/ALPA_Dreamworlds_Holzherr.jpg | Ala ma kota -> l-_-_
news/2/photokina.jpg | photokina -> p
I've spend some time for research after writing above text and I've found function getAliasName in helpers/phocagallery.php. I've changed it to see whats happening:
Code: Select all
function getAliasName($name) {
if (function_exists('iconv')) {
$test = $name;
$name = preg_replace('~[^\\pL0-9_.]+~u', '-', $name);
$test .= "|$name";
$name = trim($name, "-");
$test .= "|$name";
$name = iconv("utf-8", "us-ascii//TRANSLIT", $name);
$test .= "|$name";
$name = strtolower($name);
$test .= "|$name";
$name = preg_replace('~[^-a-z0-9_.]+~', '', $name);
$test .= "|$name";
} else {
$name = JFilterOutput::stringURLSafe($name);
if(trim(str_replace('-','',$name)) == '') {
$datenow =& JFactory::getDate();
$name = $datenow->toFormat("%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S");
}
}
return $test;
}
Code: Select all

My PHP version is 5.2.3
I have also another server with PHP 5.2.6 and there everything was ok. I'm not sure if the problem is with PHP version or something else.
