Multiple article images? / v. 4.0.5
Hello, was searching forums and Textbook extensively, but could not find info on:
How can i use multiple article images with one article? How ould i be able to use these in conjunction with the upm_image plugin?
Do i need to insert IDs of multiple article images in the one field :: comma-separated?
Given that this would work, how exactly do i use the multiple IDs in conjunction with the txp:article_image tag? How i get to display all of the specified images? And how would i do that, if i want to display a caption for each of thos specified images (in conjunction with up_image i suppose) ???
The general idea:
I am trying to display multiple images associated to an article next to its bodytext, displaying one single image at a time, with caption and with sequencially numbered links to subsequent images associated below (1/ 2/ 3/ etc.)
Any help or pointer into the right direction appreciated!

Re: Multiple article images? / v. 4.0.5
use plugin hak_article_image – it handles comma-separated list of images’ ids in article image field

Re: Multiple article images? / v. 4.0.5
i tried hak_article_image, now. Finally this post explains, that currently there is NO way to create a list of indices yet, which would point to each of multiple article images.
I also tried rewriting the plugin code, but now hang in somewhere now.
Hmm. Thanx for your suggestions in any case

Re: Multiple article images? / v. 4.0.5
With the help of hak_article_image and some additional PHP here’s a
Solution to display multiple article images, one at a time to be selected from list of indexes
Preface: Multiple article image IDs appear comma-separated in the article_image field in CONTENT->WRITE.
Way to go then:
In your article form use code
<txp:hak_article_image urloverride="1" limit="1" /><p><txp:hak_article_image urloverride="1" limit="1" form="image_caption" /></p><p><txp:hak_article_image form="ordered_links" break=" / " /></p>
In form “image_caption” (type misc) use code
<txp:hak_image_caption />
In form “ordered_links” (type misc) use code
<txp:hak_article_image_link type="page">
<txp:php>global $imgndx;$imgndx +=1;echo $imgndx;</txp:php></txp:hak_article_image_link>
Style as desired with additional css.
Hope that helps anyone.
