same settings....different looks

Hi,

Last week I downloaded and installed Phocagallery along with the needed plugins. I need it to show galleries in my articles so I use the button plugin to add galleries.

After some error and trial I got things working and the first article with a gallery was created. Have a look here: http://www.artlantisobjects.com/testsit ... &Itemid=53

I was happy with the result so I created a new article with gallery here: http://www.artlantisobjects.com/testsit ... &Itemid=53

I started to build some enthousiasme and confidence in the use of the plugin and created the next one. Have a look here: http://www.artlantisobjects.com/testsit ... &Itemid=53

Now here is where things go wrong. In the article the thumbnails look the same.....but when you open the gallery it looks totally different. In fact no gallery is shown. It is just the image showing in an empty window. Strange because I use the same settings in every gallery.

What is going wrong here...or ... what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Sjaak

Hi, in the 3td article, there is a problem with apostrophe (image indludes apostrope in the name)


In Phoca Gallery 2.6.0 it is solved, there is a protection for:

- image title and
- image description

but not for image filenames. Image filenams should not include apostrophs and bad characters (there are a lot of problems which can do bad characters in filesystem :-), see:
https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... ing-images

try to rename the image:
Neptune's chair.jpg
to
Neptune-s-chair.jpg

The same for image titles and descriptions (this will be not more required in 2.6.0 - it is temporary solution for now)
