Hi Jan,

I find the bug !
A little missing field in sql query. The field "description" is missing in file /components/com_phocagallery/models/category.php
Change line 204 :
$query = 'SELECT c.id, c.title, c.alias, c.published, c.approved, c.parent_id, c.deleteuserid, c.accessuserid, c.uploaduserid, c.access,' .
with :
$query = 'SELECT c.id, c.title, c.alias, c.description, c.published, c.approved, c.parent_id, c.deleteuserid, c.accessuserid, c.uploaduserid, c.access,' .

It is a little fix before the correction.

Best regards

Hi, thank you very much for the info. In 3.2.1 the SQL queries were optimized.

I will fix it for the next version.

Thank you, Jan

Ok, made a quickfix in the same version: Phoca Gallery 3.2.1 from 2012/07/09 includes this fix and can be downloaded here:
