Using Phoca Gallery again

Post by pslane »

I am returning to Joomla! to edit and update my website after a few years away. I cannot find the Phoca Gallery listed underneath Components. I think I need to download the Phoca Gallery again. Is it possible to download a version that is compatible with Joomla! 2.5.28? Would I find the Phoca Gallery anywhere in Joomla! besides Components?

Thank you

Hi,
Is it possible to download a version that is compatible with Joomla! 2.5.28?
https://github.com/PhocaCz/PhocaGallery ... v3.2.8.zip

Yes, if you have installed Phoca Gallery, you will find it under Components.

Kind regards,
Benno

Hi pslane,

According to previous thread, I think it's site: http://thefeatherranch.com/index.php/my-art-gallery
It does not make any sense to download PG version for Joomla 2.5, as you would have to migrate the Phocagallery (database etc.) to Joomla 3 (afterwards).

Furthermore: You should think about a migration from J 2.5.28 to Joomla 3. Step by step Migration: https://docs.joomla.org/Joomla_2.5_to_3 ... _Migration

Also your PHP Version: 5.3.29 (!) is outdated and will not be supported etc. from hoster. It can also happen, that your hoster-provider will upgrade to a higher PHP Version, which is not compatible with Joomla 2.5. You can't use PHP 5.3.29 anymore.

In addition: You also have to upgrade all extensions. Such as: JSN template, framework etc.

Kind regards, Christine

Since going to an upgrade requires starting the website all over again, I cannot do that at this time.
Thank you both.
