Galleries - pagination

Post by romba »

Hi,

1) is there a way to set up, how many galeries can be on one page, so the other galleries can be reached by pagination? I didn't see such an option. Please check

There is just an option to set the pagination for pictures in one gallery.

1b) One sulution might be showing only the main categories (like Aktivity, Sport,...), but I can't find an option like that. Is there a way to choose, what categories can be displayed (using a level / depth of the category)?


2) this is a huge gallery. In the administration, Phoca Gallery -> Images, it takes a long time to load the images (link Images is just next to the Control Panel link) or I can't even load the page. I've increased the "server load time" in Joomla configuration, but sometimes it still doesn't load. Is there a way to make it more flexible? Any suggestions?




Thank you!

Yes, backend --> Menus --> Your Menu with link "List of Categories (Categories View)" to Phoca Gallery Component --> Your link "List of Categories (Categories View)" to Phoca Gallery Component --> Menu Manager: Edit Menu Item --> Basic Options -->
Display Pagination (Categories View) - Categories=Diplay
Display Select Box (Categories View)=(As you like)
Display Ordering Select Box (Categories View)=(As you like)
Save & Close
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Phoca Gallery Control Panel --> Options --> Display --> Categories View Settings -->
Pagination Default Value (Categories View)=(e.g.)10
Save & Close
In the administration, Phoca Gallery -> Images, it takes a long time to load the images
Use the default pagination in backend (20 images per page)

Kind regards,
Benno

Thank you, Benno.
1) is solved :)
2) - the loading time is still slow - I think it's because the gallery has to load all the images anyway. It shows 20 pictures on a page. Maybe using the limit in the sql query for large galleries would solve the problem? I'll test the loading time during this week.
If you have another suggestion, please, let me know.
