Embed Phoca Gallery in COMPONENT

[Graschki]

Hi and welcome myself to this forum!

I am trying to embed the phoca Gallery into a Component! How to embed into an article is explained about a thousand times, install plugin and:
{phocagallery view=categories}
and so on...

BUT: this doesn't work in a component with echo "{phocagallery view=categories}";, the text is written as it is.

Does anybody know how to include Phoca into a Compontent, AND is ist then possible to allow users to upload fotos to a certain category?
Background: I have a website with a Tour-Guide. I want to allow users to see and upload fotos for each tour and collect them also in a gallery. Maybe also to rate them.... all the stuff you want from a great Gallery (like Phoca is)

Thanks in advance!!!!

Hi Jan

Thanks for the answer. But this workaround only works static, because the text in the content description ist static. In my Tour-Guide I have in my MySQL a tour with id=xy und I'd like to include a phoca_id=xy. So each tour has its own Poca category.

I need something that delivers me the phoca category just like:
{phocadownload view=category|id=1|target=s}
but dynamic like

Code: Select all

echo "phocadownload view=category|id=" . $phoca_id . "|target=s";

still hoping

Thanx

Aha, now I understand, I think, there is no other way than customizing the plugin - so it somehow should get the info from database or url and modify the output
