Phoca Forum

Hello i'm using phoca gallery version com_phocagallery_v3.2.2, i have the doubt.

When i upload the imagens to the server, Phoca create a folder with the thumbs and resised images.
But he dont delete the original images that i upload, images with 3, 4 megabytes, if thesse imagens dont be deleted,
will easy fill my server, becouse i upload 40 50 images per category.

Have any solution ?

Thanks Willian

Hi,
you can delete the original images via FTP, but be aware some PG functions will not work then. (e.g. EXIF, GPS, etc.) because these informations were taken from the original images.

Kind regards,

I already did that, but when i delete the original images, images of the gallery are change for an error icon

You mean in Detail View?

If yes, I guess, you use Highslide JS(Image only) and you should set:
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Phoca Gallery Control Panel --> Options --> Display --> Detail View Settings -->
Highslide JS Full Image=No
Save & Close

Try to check also:
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Phoca Gallery Control Panel --> Options --> Main --> Thumbnail Generation Settings -->
Clean Thumbnails=(should be) No

Kind regards,
