Slideshow Not Working

Post by cubangal »

Firstly, thank you for making such a great component for us to use.

I've read the documentation but I'm still having a problem understanding the slideshow as mine is not working.

I am using Joomla 2.5.2 with Phoca Gallery 3.1.5. I have categories created. My images do show. When an image is maximized the image still is displayed. However, when I click on "play" for the slideshow while the image is maximized there is no image.

I read this page also: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/67-phoca- ... -slideshow. I don't understand how this applies to me.

On my site, images are listed as a menu item in the Main Menu. When that menu item is clicked you are taken to the "Photo Gallery" which contains categories (folders with images organized). You must click on a category to view images. When you click on that category you see thumbnails. When you click on a thumbnail the image maximizes. There is a "play" button there. When you click on it, there is no image.

My questions are as follows:
1. Do I need to install a slide show for this to work for MY example?
2. Is there a way to disable this "play" button in the settings? If so, how? If not, how do I delete it from the code so this button does not show? I need this site to be very simplistic. If creating a slide show is going to be hard, I'd rather do without it. :x
3. If the instructions on this page https://www.phoca.cz/documents/67-phoca- ... -slideshow are still correct for MY situation, there is a step missing as there is no option for "large thumbnails".

*Note: I do not want a separate slide show.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Hi, if you are writing about slideshow in component, you don't need to install any other module.

Just let me know your site, maybe on your site there is some javascript error, etc? which can prevent from successfully running the slideshow. :idea:
