Large Image Resizing

Post by Shady »

Firstly, Thank you Jan and all those involved for the phoca gallery, easily the best gallery version for Joomla.

One little problem that I've spent a little while trying to sort out which I hope you can help with.

I have two gallery pages linking straight from main menu (no categories, just images) and while one enlarges to the true size, the other gallery link just doesn't want to resize the images back to original size.

The image size on clicking the thumbnail I want to acheive is 1600 x 1200 wallpaper size, but it resizes it to 680 px. I have tried to adjust the parameters both in phoca and the menu parameters and it is clearly showing 1600 width and 1200 height, but yet on opening the images it still gives me the smaller size.

Do I re-cache that image folder or something for the new changes to take effect?

Many thanks

Hi,

After you changed the sizes, you have to recreate the images. The easiest way to do that is to delete the thumbs folder on your server

Many thanks for your help,

I deleted the thumbs folder in that image category folder, then rebuilt the thumbs. Again they appear slightly bigger but again not in 1600 x 1200?

I double checked and both parameters in phoca and the menu parameters still state big image as 1600 x 1200?

Confusion!
