How to disable Flash Uploader in Version 2.2.3?

Post by Skyshing »

I have used previous versions of Phoca Gallery and I noticed that you can disable 'Flash Uploader' from the Phoca Gallery Control Panel via the 'Parameters' icon top-right corner. Now I am using Version 2.2.3. I know that there is new upload feature called 'Java Uploader' and this can be disabled from the 'Enable Java Uploader' parameter. So where is the 'Enable Flash Uploader' parameter in this 2.2.3? It was there in the previous version.

I want to disable Flash uploader, because each time when I click on 'Multiple Add', I get warning triangle message at the bottom-left of the IE7 (I am talking about backend here). When you double click on this error icon, it says 'Problems with this web page may prevent from being displayed properly ...'

I noticed this issue in the earliest versions too and becuase 'Enable Flash Uploader' parameter was there I can have the Flash Uploader disabled which I did and this warning triangle message dissapear. So where is the 'Enable Flash Uploader' parameter in this new version 2.2.3???

I realized that the 2.2.4 version just come out, so does it have the 'Enable Flash Uploader' parameter?
By the way, I am using Joomla Version 1.5.10. Anyone - help would be great on this.

You can enable or disable this in the Joomla Global settings as far as I know

Are you sure that the 'Flash Uploader' in Joomla Global settings have direct relationship with Phoca Gallery?
I have disabled 'Flash Uploader' from Joomla Global settings, it is just the same with that warning sign which I was on about. As I said, the 'Enable Flash Uploader' parameter from Phoca Gallery (backend parameter, if you set it to 'NO' in previous Phoca Gallery version, it is fine without warning sign.

Hi,

to be honest, the last time I turned the flash uploader on and off, was when adobe released Flash uploader 10, and all the problems started in Joomla!. And back then it used to work.

By the way, you can test the media manager, if you'll see the same triangel when uploading images there.

You are right on this, as I am using Flash 10, when I enabled the 'Flash Uploader' in Joomla global settings, I can see the warning yellow triangle in the Media Manager.

Well, it would be good to have the 'Enable Flash Uploader' parameter back in the backend of the Phoca Gallery (like before), this would allow admin to choose either disable or enable the 'Flash Uploader' feature just like the 'Java Uploader' feature. Anyway, the 'Enable Flash Uploader' parameter was there before but not in the newest version, what a shame.

Any idea how to get into the code to disable the 'Enable Flash Uploader', so that I don't see the yellow warning trianlge?
Any help on this would be most appreciated.
