[plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_category_image: Display image for category.

admi · 2012-04-03 18:11:22

Hello to TXP users!

This one <txp:upm_category_image_list link=“yes” link_section=“yes” title=“yes” /> works perfectly for my needs but is there any slightest hope that together with images I can also publish categories’ titles? Some people understand better when they can read. Or is there any other way to list categories with its images?

Thanks!

Is this <txp:image_info /> what you need?

Right, but how do I integrate this tag with the plugin’s tag upm_image_list?

The upm_image plugin is no longer necessary. You can do all with <txp:images />.

How? Example?

disclaimer: No idea what this plugin does but I imagine that may be what admi needs to solve the issue.

well, i will be happy if you prove to be right. But I have no concept how to make this tag work for article category images (not image categories).

An alternative option is an example from http://txptips.com/assign-an-icon-to-your-navigation-links –

<txp:section_list break=”“ wraptag=“ul” default_title=“Home” sections=“section1,section2,section3” include_default=“1”>
<li><img src=”/images/<txp:section />.png” /><txp:section title=“1” link=“1” /></li>
</txp:section_list>

where instead of sections categories may be used.

Untested, but something like this:

<txp:category_list wraptag="ul" break="li">
	<a href="<txp:site_url /><txp:section />?c=<txp:category />">
		<txp:image name='<txp:category />.jpg' />
		<p><txp:category title="1" /></p>
	</a>
</txp:category_list>

… assuming that your images are .jpg images and you name the images to match the category-name. Use txp:thumbnail instead of txp:image if you want to use the thumbnail. If you want to control which categories to show, look at the parent, children or categories attributes of txp:category_list.

Thanx, but it means that I should upload images thru ftp, otherwise txp will change the names into 1, 2, 3.jpg – right?

See names attribute.

No, as Uli says, it’s the image’s name field in the image tab. Same as you do for upm_article_image.

I’ve not tested it but after browsing some of the image tags’ pages a little more, I think even the hardcoded jpg extension is taggable (is that a word?) with <txp:image_info type="ext" name=''<txp:category />'' />. I hope so.
