Joomla 5

[Sietwolt]

I have been using Phoca Gallery for many years. In the meantime updated to Joomla 5 and Phoca Gallery 5.0.
Wondering if all documentation is applicable for Joomla 5/Gallery 5.0
F.e. is it still possible to adjust parameters per menu item? Still possible to adjust themes to detail view etc.

Another question: is it possible to upload more photos in a gallery while photos have different sizes ( f.e. laying and standing pfotos: 580x 340 and 340x 580)

Thanks for your reactions

Hi,

Wondering if all documentation is applicable for Joomla 5/Gallery 5.0

No!

F.e. is it still possible to adjust parameters per menu item?

No!

Still possible to adjust themes to detail view etc.

For J4/J5 there are two Category View themes available: Theme Standard and Theme Simple
Only one of this two themes should be aktiv.

is it possible to upload more photos in a gallery while photos have different sizes ( f.e. laying and standing pfotos: 580x 340 and 340x 580)

Images with landscape and portrait format in one category should be possible.
But I myself only use landscape format.
And the Phoca demos also predominantly use landscape format.
E.G.: https://www.phoca.cz/demo/

Kind regards,
Benno

Thanks for the quick answers.
Re: "Images with landscape and portrait format in one category should be possible" How to upload them in the same library? In the parameters for thumbnails i have to define the sizes for the pictures. So it looks like it is or landscape or portrait?

Hi,
yes, I would use landscape sizes for thumbnails and I wouldn't crop any thumbnails, then the heights of portrait and landscape thumbs will be the same.

Kind regards,
