Hi,
I'm not able to access your site! :idea:

403: Access Forbidden

Your location (DE) has been blacklisted.


Kind regards,
Benno

I will unblock DE this evening. Because of cyberattacks in the past, a lot of countries are blocked by our firewall. .. sorry about that...

Hi,
not sure but it seems to be a problem of our category structure.

------ 2013
--------------- BBQ
--------------- Clubfeest
--------------- Verrebroek kermis
is ok!
Unfortunately, the photo gallery of Evenementen 2014 is not showing on the website??
------ Indoor vliegen
--------------- Fotos GVA
are ok, but not assigned to category 2014 (is category 2014 publised & authorized??)
--------------- Nieuwjaarsreceptie
I don't find this category. (Is it publised & authorized??)

Fotoarchief
------ De Oude doos
is ok!

Kind regards,
Benno

Hi,
try to check if you hide some categories (perhaps for testing.. :idea: )
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Options --> Categories View Settings --> Hide Categories

Kind regards,
Benno

I checked the settings and I indeed overlooked a setting.
There where is says id of categories to show.
It goes upto number 10.
The newly created categories had an id above that number.
I now added id's upto 15 and everything is ok.

Would it not be a good idea to incorporate an extra setting in one of the next releases to allow the administrator to set the option whether he wants the categories to be shown by id or not?
That way you can cross off this option and either show everything or (in the other case) the selected categories?

Normally you don't need this setting. If you leave the fields (show categories & hide categories) empty, all created, published and authorized categories should be visible... :idea:
