Image Gallery Photo Size

Post by jeffreywhunter »

We are discussing photo image sizes. Phoca resizes the images when they are uploaded. Once uploaded and phoca has resized the images and created the templates, can we delete the files from the library to save space?

Thanks...

no,

phoca recognizes that they're gone, and doesn't display the thumbnails anymore.

Understood. Is there a way for Phoca to permanently resize the original image as it uploads it? So the result after an upload is the image resized and the original is not on the site anymore.

Thanks...

Phoca uses the originals for 2 things:
- creating thumbnails from
- displaying the original via the download link

It doesn't remove or resize the original in any way, so I guess that it's not possible what you want.
