Phoca Slideshow noob - instruction

[basilthefox]

Hello guys,

I've read the notes on this page and followed all the instructions, but I'm not having much luck in seeing the gallery on my page.

I'm using the Castlelab templeate: http://www.linelab.org/?template=castlelab

I have selected for the module to appear in position Topsl as per Linelab's design ( http://www.linelab.org/phocadownload/ph ... ptions.png ) , but aside from my article content, nothing appears on the page.... certainly no gallery.

I've followed all of the instructions above and toyed with the settings as much as I can, but as far as I can see, everything should be okay. I would've thought I'd be able to see something at least.

Here's my Gallery Category admin page:



and here's my Module admin page:



Can you spot anything that may be preventing the Gallery from displaying?

I'm pulling my hair out here, so any help would be much appreciated.

--------------------------

I should add that I was originally using my own images, but after that didn't work, I downloaded three of the images mentioned in the directions above to use as a test. They are stored in the GPO-Slideshow folder in the Phoca Gallery module as per the settings you can see in my images.

Thanks.

Hi,
see this thread: viewtopic.php?f=32&t=12765

Solved .. I checked both code templates to identify a difference .. And I found that Castlelab template was using just the following library declaration:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/MyDE/media/system/js/core.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/MyDE/media/system/js/mootools-core.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/MyDE/media/system/js/caption.js"></script>

Phoca template was using one more

<script type="text/javascript" src="/MyDE/media/system/js/mootools-more.js"></script>

Looking in the WEB I found that I need to declare JHTML::_('behavior.framework') to loading mootools-more library, So I put this script after the first line on the Index.php file for the template:

Code: Select all
defined('_JEXEC') or die;
JHTML::_('behavior.framework', true);



This solved my issue ...

Kind regards,
Benno

Thanks for pointing this thread out to me Benno, I'll make my reply in the other thread as Castlelab advised I use the Floom Module. Still having problems, though.

Ok.

Hello, those instruction seems to be clear, but my slideshow still doesn't appear.

1, Joomla 1.6.1 installed

2, com_phocagallery_v3.0.0_rc4 installed (category created, 2 images added, thubail generation activated)

3, tmpl_phoca_color_v1.0.1 installed (templated activated, Slideshow = yes)
What to select in Slideshow (Select Image) field? How to select my ''header' gallery?

4, mod_phocagallery_slideshow_noob 1.0.1 installed (position-16 set up)

Did I missed something? Thank you.

You have to write category id (this which you want to show) from your gallery in slideshow module

Hi,

Where do I adjust for pictures which are not that size of 970 x 230 pixels? I also want the pictures centered.

backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Phoca Gallery Control Panel --> Options --> Main --> Images And Detail Window Size Settings -->
Large Image Width=(as you like)
Large Image Height=(as you like
Save your settings!
and:
backend --> Extensions --> Module Manager --> mod_phocagallery_slideshow_noob --> Basic Options -->
Slideshow Width=(as you like)
Slideshow Heigh=(as you like)
Save your settings!
Kind regards,
Benno

This does not address centering.

I see, that previous question is one year old, and still need answer. How to make pictures in gallery centered. Thank you in advance.
