Different thumbnail sizes for different categories

[GGGolf]

Hi!

I don't know if that has already been answered, but I looked around and could not find a post about this....So sorry if it exists already!

In my website, I have different galleries for different purposes. For example, I have a page for the Board of directors, where I have all of their photos, in portrait orientation, someqhat small sized. In the Clubhouse section, I have different images of the dining rooms, patio etc, most of them in landscape, and bigger sized.

Is it possible to have different "medium-sized" thumbnails for each category, accessed ? Those categories are accessible each through a menu item. I tried setting the parameters in the menu Item so the thumbnails are created with those settings, and then recreating the thumbnails, deleting them manually and recreating them, but, no success. They are always created with the global parameters settings....Is that normal? Can i do what I am trying to do or is this not supported by phoca?

Thanks a lot!!!!

OK!

Found it! Silly me, it was only a Crop Thumbnails issue. Once i set the Crop Thumbnails to none, it displayed perfectly!

Vive Phoca!

Merry Christmas to all!

Hi...

Me again....for the same problem...

It's kind of solved, but when I add new pictures in a categroy that needs to be in Portrait, it wont have them in portrait if the Global Configuration is in a Landscape size... I still need some different sizes for my different categories....

Can this be controlled through the menu items? The options are there so it seem like I could change the thumbnail sizes, but it doesn't seem to be working...

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you,

Catherine

Hi, you need to set the size for everytime you will change the portrait to landscape etd. Phoca Gallery can work with both format so if there are both format included, Phoca Gallery will change the portrait so it has the same height as landscape - then of course (because of mathematical principle) the potrait will be resized to get no damaged - crooked thumbnail)
