Random Images on Home Page

Post by 83dons »

Hi

I have Joomla 1.6 and Phoca 3.0.0 RC4 but I cant find how to add a box to the homepahe LH section where it will display random images from the gallery? This is usually a pretty standard feature?

While Im here is there instructions somwhere here on how to add saved images into a basic article in Joomla 1.6 or is this Joomla functionality and not different if you have Phoca?

Thanks

Hi, what you mean with add box to homepage? Do you mean module? If yes, just install and enable Phoca Gallery Image module.

I have done that but as you can see on the link below it only shows photos from one image category. It should show a random imahe from images in all categories. How do I enable this?

Hi, then you should not select any category in the module.

Hi, limit start means, on this place the image will be selected, limit count, how many images will be selected:

0 (start)... means - first image selected
1 (count)... count of images

This is related to database selecting of data ... SQL QUERY ... LIMIT 0, 1
