howto display image in excerpt automatically

I would like to have an image displayed in excerpt automatically, e.g. it could be first image from article. I do not expect complete step-by-step guide, but just some hints, so I can make it:) Thank you

Re: howto display image in excerpt automatically

Do you mean on the page where your excerpt is displayed or in RSS Feeds?

You could add code to your page or form near <txp:excerpt/> to output the first article image using <txp:images> with a limit.

And here’s the code ;)
Like Matt said, add limit="1" to the code in the “Tips” paragraph from redbot’s site.
