Good Morning guys! Happy st patricks day.! Sorry to bother you with this, but i am pretty new to this.

I am using Joomla 1.6 and installed Phoca v3 last week and it is working fine, i love it..thanks.

Just 2 little things I wanted your help with if you could please,

1. I cannot upload any new themes to Phoca. I was getting an array or errors and after going throug multiple fixes online i have hit a brick wall. I checked all the directories, permissions, ftp layer, config.php, uploaded the themes through the component and ext manager and still failing. I even attempted to replace the zip contents manually in the directory on the server, to no avail.

"copy failed: Unable to find required information in install package"

I assume that 1.6 is not an issue? Am i missing permissions?

2. I dont know if this is related as it may be an install error on my part, but in the themes menu, whenever i choose "Pick Color" nothing pops up. I have seen screenshots with the colour palette, but nothing on mine..i can choose a colour from an invisible pallette but cant actually see it ...if that makes sense!!

The reason i am asking this, is because my sites background is black and when i upload an image it is surrounded by a large white box, does nt look very good :) When i changed the colour to black for all 4 options it didnt really make much of a difference, so i thought changing the themes would.

Also I have tried every theme on the phoca.cz site and all the same...

Please help, and thank you for your precious time in advance

Just a quick update guys, I still haven't managed to get the themes working but I did manage to get the site looking a little better through control panel > options.

I wonder if someone can tell me though, I can't find anywhere in the options or the .CSS to change to Color of the front end user upload box, and the size also

Anyone know where I can find this option?

Cheers

Hi, I think, this needs to be done in phoca gallery css or in template css:

components/com_phocagallery/assets/phocagallery.css

Regarding themes - I am testing and still get no problems there :idea:
