Can you see your thumbnails in backend?
If yes, did you publish your categories and your images?

I have no idea, because I never did this. Please read the documentation https://www.phoca.cz/documentation/categ ... -component

Mine is showing broken link images in the backend as well.
This is what is happening:
If thumbnail creation is set to yes, when I go to add a new image to a gallery and click the image button to browse for my image it gives me a fatal error message in the pop-up window
( Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 52428800 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 14592 bytes) in /home/****/public_html/administrator/components/com_phocagallery/libraries/phocagallery/image/imagemagic.php on line 214)

When I thumbnail creation is set to no it gives me blank images (as seen in 'cocktails' image link - both frontend and backend) but I don't get any error messages.

When I add photos with thumbnail creation set to no THEN go back into parameters and set it to yes it will go ahead and create proper thumbnails for the first 2-3 photos then it will throw another error message at me. Weird??

I'm using the lates version of phoca gallery downloaded 24/04/10.

Hi, search this forum what to do if your server (GD) is not able to work with large images.

- memory, cpu needs to be increased
- or smaller images should be uploaded to the system.

Hi cocktail,
1) what do you mean with backend ? :?
Frontend=what you and your visitors can see at your site
Backend=what you can see when you are login as administrator
Can you see your thumbnails in backend?
If yes, did you publish your categories and your images?
Backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Images
can you see there your createt thumbnails?
If yes, did you publish your categories and your images?
Backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Categories
are your categories published and authorized?
Backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Images
are your Images / thumbnails published and authorized?
2) i dont find sth. in the documentation to this
Ok :idea:
Kind regards,
Benno

Hi,
1.) check by FTP if Phoca Gallery creats the folder thumbs.
/images/phocagallery/your_folder_where_you_load_up_your_pictures_on_your_server/thumbs
Are thumbs in this folder? :idea:

2.)
no i see there empty boxes :(
Delete in backend all empty boxes and create new thumbs.
Please read the documentation before you do this https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... em-solving
Enable thumbnail creation.
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Phoca Gallery Control Panel --> Parameters --> Thumbnail Creation Settings--> Enable Thumbnails Creation=Yes Save your settings.

Kind regards,
Benno

I am uploading images that are approximately 50kb (tiny), there shouldn't be an issue with large images.
