Hi,
1. I've been a subscriber now for over a year buying the subscription, and then recently upgrading. It's important that you know that when you try to recover your password on the forum, no email comes to the email!! this makes it impossible to recover password. I've tried 5 times and eventually registered under a different email. My subscription email is This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and my username is sportstown. I've registered for the forum a second time using email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. because I never get the password recovery email.

2. My Main Question: I recently ugraded to the newer version because I was excited and wanted to use the image gallery field. I have successfully shown 3 images on the front end, however, my ultimate goal is to show on the front end using a 3rd party extension.

* The link to show how to use 3rd party extension goes to an error page. can you please point me to some instructions / documentation??

I'd like to use the following extension (link provided) because I need to show the images in a slider gallery with descriptions. Can you please confirm before I purchase another extension that this should work and I should be able to incorporate this extension in my front end form as well as show it correctly in the article. Thank You!!!!

Thank you for the quick response Patrick. Sorry about the title! I was frustrated after trying to recover password for so long. It sounds like this is doable and I'll give it a try.

Have a great day.

Please have a look here: https://dj-extensions.com/documentation/dj-mediatools/content-plugin

Using the Media tools content plugin and the F2C template parameters you can create the gallery dynamically.

Hi David,

TWO things. Please read the forum rules and:

1) Add a relevant header
2) Add your version info

3rd party extensions can work with F2C if they can link to the folder that the images are saved in via a plugin: Example http://documentation.form2content.com/f2c-plugin-examples/100-sigplus-gallery-joomla-plugin

My personal experience is that you can also easily create the code for a slideshow using bootstrap/uikit etc. in your F2C template. Saves website overhead.

Regards,
Patrick
