displaying original image

[hcharris]

I've used Phocagallery for several years but the version for Joomla 5 has me stumped.
I used to show a category of images (thumbs) in an article and then clicking on a thumb would open the original image. That is not happening.
What am I doing wrong.
Thanks.

Hi,
which Joomla! 5 version are you using?
which Phoca Gallery Component version are you using?
which Phoca Gallery Plugin version are you using?
which Phoca Gallery Plugin code are you using?

Kind regards,

The exact Joomla! version you will find here:

Please post it here.

Not sure what the Phoca Gallery Plugin Code is

Go to: backend --> Content --> Articles --> The article which should display images in frontend. --> Within this article you will find something like this:
{phocagallery view=category|categoryid=2|limitstart=0|limitcount=0|max=12}
This is your used Plugin code. Please post it here.

Hi,
I don't get this incorrect result when I click on an image in category view on my test page using the versions of Joomla! and Phoca Gallery Component and Phoca Gallery Plugin you mentioned. Have you tried testing this with the Joomla! standard template Cassiopeia (only for testing), or do you perhaps get an error message in the JS console that would explain this?

What does that mean? Have you found a solution, and if so, what is it?

If not, have you followed my recommendations, and with what result?
