Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_image: More powerful image display

Just curious, what do people use this plugin for these days? I was under the impression that the new image tag features in Txp 4.3 negated the need for at least a few image plugins.

Yes, the core tags can do everything that most of the image plugins, including upm_image, do. Users that are used to the plugin might still keep using, and existing sties and projects will keep using if they don’t want to migrate. There is no problem if you keep using the plugins even that core offers same functionality.

Related question: do the core tags allow you to pull in the image caption field?

That’s what I use upm_image for.

MattD,

I use this plugin for placing images on a particular place on a page.
So I choose for place a image. Get a popup where I can choose which picture and then it get placed.
So i don’t have to remember the code

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_image: More powerful image display

roelof,

this sounds like you’re using upm_image in combination with upm_image_popper, which is what creates the image listing and places the string of code.
This functionality can not be achieved with the core image tags.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_image: More powerful image display

Where are the images you want displayed inline?

Based on <txp:upm_image type="image" image_id="26" class=“image” /> you would want the inline rule to apply to the image class. So something like this would go in your stylesheet.

.image {
display:inline;
}

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_image: More powerful image display

For any reason there’s a <br> inbetween the images. Try if upm_image offers a break attribute for doing break="".
