Sigplus plugin documentation

The official Sigplus website, including great syntax documentation and examples can be found here.

Integrating Sigplus into F2C template

We are assuming that you have a Form2Content Content Type with a submission form which has one or more images. We want to show the images using Sigplus image gallery, see some examples here.

The basic sigplus plugin syntax is:

{gallery}birds1{/gallery}

Very important: In the example birds1 is a image folder located in images/stories, this is the default setting which we will use in this example.

F2C template syntax

In order to link to the correct image folder (the one that is related to the Joomla article you are creating) we need to use the correct template parameter, in this case {$F2C_IMAGES_PATH_RELATIVE} which creates a link from the images/stories location to the correct com_form2content subfolder. The F2C template syntax will become:

{ldelim}gallery{rdelim}{$F2C_IMAGES_PATH_RELATIVE}{ldelim}/gallery{rdelim}

F2C Template parameter used: {$F2C_IMAGES_PATH_RELATIVE} creates a relative link from images/stories to the image folder of the uploaded F2C article images.
