Article Thumbnail Doesn't Display
Hi,
On the front page of my site I am using article thumbs here which were working but now don’t seem it. I;m using Mary’s img plugin, but even manually place the txp id for the img doesn’t work. I’ve got this down to the path of the img where the article img is trying to call, which is wrong. Where can I change the path of the img only for the article img field? It’s trying to locate the images in the root, rather than in the images folder. The thumbnails are there, the images are there, but they’re just not being called correctly
Thanks in advance
EDIT: I checked the path in the admin area and it seems correct, the only time the img path is incorrect is when trying to call the thumbnail of the image. the full image itself displays. so for example, using 99 works, but 99t fails

Re: Article Thumbnail Doesn't Display
Since I’m seeing code like this <img src="98t" alt="" /> on your page, I’m guessing that you are using custom fields to call the thumbnails? Probably something like <img src="<txp:custom_field name="xx" />t" alt="" />?
If so, just add the path and the file extension there. If not, sorry for my wrong assumptions.

no i’m using the txp:article_img (I think the tag is) tag in a form, as is. I enter the number of the article in the article image field and it displays as you’ve noted. I am also using mary’s img popper plugin but that seems to have little effect on how the article img field is outputting, could it be a bug? It’s very strange and trouble some

I’ve placed the full path to the images into the article image box and they are working but I’m now quite bothered about your setup because rss_suparchive is throwing the type of wobbley I have nightmares about. There is nothing wrong with the tag and it’s chucking out an index error. I’m not a happy bunny. This may be connected to why there were all those blank spaces uses my non-plug-in method.
Another thing that bothers me is that register_globals is on but diagnostics isn’t throwing a warning out. This doesn’t look good. :(

sorry i had the site in debugging mode, rather than live. i noticed you use the full path which is great, and i suppose the only way the images are going to work. the annoying thing is that they should be outputting with simply the image id.
