Phoca Forum

Hello,

Is it possible to point to another folder ?
I want to have my image folder out of the joomla folder.

I use Joomla 3.4.6 and Phoca Gallery 4.2.2

Hi, try to see similar posts in this forum, there is a way to customize it in Path library (but not sure, if some feature will be broken), see:
administrator\components\com_phocagallery\libraries\phocagallery\path\path.php

Hi Jan, I'm working on the same issue (trying to change the phoca gallery directory). I have change the path.php file to reflect the new directory ( /images/newgallery instead of /images/phocagallery) as follows:

$instance->image_abs = JPATH_ROOT . DS . 'images' . DS . 'newgallery' . DS ;
$instance->image_rel = 'images/newgallery/';
$instance->avatar_abs = JPATH_ROOT . DS . 'images' . DS . 'newgallery' . DS . 'avatars' . DS ;
$instance->avatar_rel = 'images/newgallery/avatars/';

Images upload correctly to the new directory and thumbnails are created in the new directory but no images appear in either the backend or frontend. I only can see a white square with the image title. Have I missed something?


Thanks for all your support.

Hi, then try to see the source html code of the site where the images are not displayed, this seems like the path is not correct there
