using chronoforms to upload images to phoca

I've successfully created a form in chronoforms to upload images, however i am missing something from the form code to trigger phoca into recognising and databasing links to the image (thumbnail creation etc).



I cannot seem to find details as to how to do this in the documentation.

Can anyone help?


(P.S. I need to keep using chronoforms as I also need to be able to enter people into an arts competition and register with joomla at the same time).

Hi, I don't have any experiences with using chronoforms and phoca gallery, so I cannot add any advice :-(

is there an action i could add to the form though? is there a php script within phoco gallery to fire off?

is there a script that will trigger thumnail creation etc etc? For me it's more about getting the category views to pick up on the newly uploaded images. and i dare say thumbnail creation also dumps a url into a database of sorts...

all i need to do is trigger thumbnail creation from the front-end... hmmmmm.

is it possible with breezing forms? (is there another form system you know of that i could swap too?)


if not, don't worry. I'll leave the message up for others.

thanks
