<txp:article_image_url>

I know it’s kind of doable with ump_image and a couple of other plugins, but it would be really handy to have a core TXP tag for <txp:article_image_url>, since we already have one for <txp:image_url>.

I think this is equivalent:

<txp:images>
   <txp:image_url />
</txp:images>

The images tag defaults to reading its context from the article image field — and will honour any list if it contains a comma-separated list of IDs. If you’re not sure if the article image is going to contain something you can wrap that lot in <txp:if_article_image>.

Re: <txp:article_image_url>

that doable without a plugin but need more tag:

<txp:images auto_detect="article"><txp:image_url /></txp:images>

Cheers

Re: <txp:article_image_url>

This also works:

<txp:image_url id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />' />

Forgot about that cheat. I like the cut of your jib, sir.

EDIT: though that’ll only work (uhh, I think, haven’t tried) if there’s one image ID.

Re: <txp:article_image_url>

Great thinking ‘outside the box’ there (for want of a better phrase). Thanks people.

Yep, you’re right. For a comma-separated list of image IDs, you can use rah_repeat or your very own smd_each:

<ul>
  <txp:rah_repeat value='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />'>
    <li><a href="<txp:image_url id='<txp:rah_repeat_value />' />" rel="lightbox"><txp:thumbnail id='<txp:rah_repeat_value />' /></a></li>
  </txp:rah_repeat>
</ul>
