Thanks!

Hi,
if you mean the Image Description in Category View, go to:
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Phoca Gallery Control Center --> Options --> Display --> Category View Settings -->
Display Image Description In Box=Yes
Font Size Of Image Description=(as you like)
Box Height Of Image Description=(depends on Font size and Number of Characters)
Number Of Characters In Image Description=(as you like)
Save & Close

Kind regards,
Benno

No, I mean the category description, which wasnt displayed in first version of Phoca Gallery 3.2.1.
Phoca Gallery -> Categories -> Description

Ok.

And where can I now enable it?

Hi,
there is nothing to enable.
Just type some description in the Description/Editor of a category, and this description will be displayed in frontend.

backend:


frontend:

I added a description, but it didnt show up.
I edited the code in /components/com_phocagallery/views/category/tmpl/default.php line 35ff

Code: Select all

// Category Description
if (isset($this->category->description) && $this->category->description != '' ) {
	echo '<div class="pg-category-view-desc'.$this->params->get( 'pageclass_sfx' ).'">';
	//echo $this->category->description
	echo 'Desc';
	echo JHTML::_('content.prepare', $this->category->description)
	.'</div>'. "\n";
}

But no "Desc" is being displayed.

Hi,
don't know why you change code. It's not necessary because it works out of the box as I described.
Do you use the joomla! standard editor "TinyMCE"?

I wanted to know if the version I installed was the early or the late version 3.2.1. The missing "echo 'Desc'" says to me that there is an option which I have to enable...

I tried with TinyMCE and with JCE. No difference.

Hi,
this is fixed in the current version.
http://joomlacode.org/gf/download/frsre ... v3.2.1.zip
If you are not sure which version you are running, just upgrade to this version.

Kind regards,
