Hi,
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Phoca Gallery Control Panel --> Parameters --> Categories View Settings (List of Categories) -->
Number of Columns=2
Equal Percentage Column width=Yes
Display Categories Style=Categories, images and detail information (Float)
Categories Box Width=50%
Image Size Beside Category Name=Small with shadow
Save your settings!
If you want to use the template too:

I tried what you wrote.

I installed the com_phocagallery_v2.7.6, the plg_content_phocgallery_2.7.2 and the plg_editors-xt_phocagallery files

I have changed columns in the Components-Phoca Gallery - Parameters and then using the Phoca Button selected categories and inserted into an article.
I selected 2 rows and it still looks like this http://www.oblique.se/index.php?option= ... &Itemid=30

I've been looking into the php file but I am not good enough to understand if or what I should change

The code inserted on the page looks like this {phocagallery view=categories|imagecategories=1|imagecategoriessize=0}

Please help!

You don't need Phoca Gallery Plugin or Button Plugin for this layout.
You only need a simple menu link to Phoca Gallery Component and the settings I posted before.
To create the link:
backend --> Menus --> e.g. Main Menu --> Menu Item Manager: [mainmenu] Press New Button --> Select Menu Item Type --> Phoca Gallery --> All Categories --> Phoca Gallery Category List Layout --> Menu Item: [ New ] --> Menu Item Details -->
Title:=(As you like) for example Gallery
Alias:=(As you like) for example gallery
Published:=Yes
Save your settings!
Now you have a new menu item in fronend. If you klick this menu item and you have done the settings I posted before in Phoca Gallery Parameters it should look like: https://www.phoca.cz/wallpapers/
Kind regards,
Benno
