Installing Phoca Gallery under XAMPP
Posted: 30 Dec 2011, 01:19
Hi
New boy here! I'm trying to develop a Joomla web site (to replace an existing HTML version) for a photographic club (so there will be lots of images) and have started by installing Joomla 1.7.3 under XAMPP 1.7.7.
I've installed Phoca Gallery 3.1.1 successfully but cannot then find it again - there are no links to it under any Administration heading that I can see. If I re-install it and then save the Localhost URL to a Browser's (IE9 or Google Chrome) favourites I can then re-enter it under Administrator.
I've also installed the Slide Show plugin which works with no problem on the "uploaded" images.
I'd be greatful for any suggestions as, although I can cope at the moment, I don't see this working when uploaded to the host.
Thanks.
