Hi,

mod_phocagallery_isotope_v1.0.0

This is no Phoca extension...

i cant install :
el-GR.com_phocagallery.zip

This is a Phoca Gallery for Joomla! v1.5 translation and will not work with joomla! v3.x

i cant install :
highslide-4.1.13.zip

There is no need to install highslide, because it's already integrated in Phoca Gallery.

i cannot install themes

There are no Phoca Gallery v4 Themes available. You need to style Phoca Gallery via CSS.

also i cant find nowhere the configuration for phoca gallery like i used on older version .

The Options Button is in the upper right corner of your screenshot.

Kind regards,
Benno

Perfect for all my questions!!! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH.

My last question and the most difficult.

I want to make a multi language website.

I have allready made the menus multilanguage with joomla .not any extension.

and what i did now :
I have uploaded some categories into phoca gallery OK .
I have choosed that categories to show up only in the specific language.

BUT how should i make the cattegories translate for other languages?

Should i change folder names in the language i want them and reupload in phoca and choose the new cattegories with different name in the new menu language?

And if i do that i have seen something very important and also bad :
well lets say i have 2 menus 2 languages : ENG & GR
IN phoca gallery added 5 folders in greek language and choosed to show only in GR menu.
IN global phoca gallery options -> cattegories view -> cattegories view settings ->cattegories view description : I have written something in greek . AND IF I assocate again the phoca gallery in ENG menu , albums will not show *(because i have choosen to show at the moment only in GR language) but that article in greek language there it shows up....

What to do ?
How it can be done right ?
I dont think i should install more folder in different languages and with article only into folder cattegories and not into global catteries view description or i must?

SO SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH !!
Hope you can anderstand me . and i beg you to give me light on this because is the best gallery out there and i desperatelly need this to be done !!

Hi,
unfortunately, I have no experience with multilingual sites. Therefore, I can not offer any help at this point.

Also dunno if i should open another post or just reply that question for another phoca extension here :
it has to do with : phoca facebook comments

photo explain better :
https://www.dropbox.com/s/v9b8hc2tioi6q ... k.PNG?dl=0

there it says "facebook language" is it possible to make it somehow accept more than eng-US ?
and what is comment admins?

OR

does anyone have to suggest me a facebook like/share/comment that it choose auto what language site has ?

Hi, the only idea I have is to try customize the php output code of the module:

modules/mod_phoca_facebook_comments/tmpl/default.php

and somehow remove the language - you can find the variable here: $tmpl['fb_comment_lang'] but I think you need to discover on FB pages, if there is some link to not language file:

//connect.facebook.net/'. $tmpl['fb_comment_lang'] .'/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=

- for now no experiences so cannot give any clue advice

Ahhh it never ends i tryed to use facebook now.....

Export option and found out that it doest work.

I used this guide but i maybe miss something.
https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... ook-albums

first of all :

I have added my facebook account and pasted loaded data
and there it says fan page ID

i used a site : http://findmyfacebookid.com/
and it seemed i found my facebook id .

but when i go to export into facebook , i see the 2 accounts i have addes account + account fan page

But when i go to choose album to export i see the albums from the user account only...

what i am missing here?
