Phoca Gallery Slideshow Plugin not working, code is shown instead

Post by Germaine »

I have enabled the Phoca Gallery Slideshow plugin and I'm trying to show all the images of a Phoca category, but instead the code below is shown:

{pgslideshow id=24|width=100|height=100|delay=3000|image=M|pgslink=1}

Please help?

Hi,
which Joomla! version do you use?
which Phoca Gallery version do you use?
which Phoca Gallery Slideshow Plugin version do you use?
Where do you place this code? Inside an article or inside a module?
If inside an article, how do you create your articles? Do you use a third party extension like e.g. K2 for creating articles?

Kind regards,
Benno

Hi Benno,

I think I had the same problem.
The documentation contains a trap: the sample tag is made of images to show brackets, so that a simple copy/paste of this sample to an article body will never be functionnal because it brings images instead of bracket characters.
I didn't realized this until I switched to the code view.

Yes that is true. And it is documented here: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/51-phoca- ... oad-plugin
Important
When you copy the code from this website, please don't copy the { and }, because these are images. When you add the code to your own article you have to type the { and } yourself. (If it would be typed here, you wouldn't see the code, but the links). Don't use line breaks for the code. The code should be added without any line breaks into the editor.
Kind regards,
Benno
