Displaying uploaded pictures with the table

gg4j 18 Dec, 2008
Hi all,

I would suggest to display a thumbnail of the pictures uploaded, in the Record of the Table where the data are stored.lightbulb
It would be nice to see all the table, not only the list of records.

Currenly is there somehow a way to display the data in table and the pictures have been uploaded in the folder?

Many thanks!

Hi gg4j

you may need to use ChronoConnectivity to accomplish this task!

Hi thanks Max,

just installed I need to read the tutorial.
But as overview, I don't see how it is possible to connect a table (with the name of the file uploaded) and the image of the file uploaded, if they are images...

yYep I couldn't find any tutorial...
...is there anything, some examples, on how use chronoconnectivity to do this job?
(uploaded images display + metatags stored in a db table)
superthanks again!😛

Hi, just to make sure we are on the same page, my idea is to view the image as a thumbnail in the "record details view" page, that's fine ?

yes I think it is!
Cause I guess it will be possible to specify the size of the thumbnail.
Is CConnectivity doing that?
Do you think to relise any tutorial?

Hi, yes it does that, the tutorial from the front page is enough for this, all you need to configure the "admin edit template" correctly, give it a try and start a thread at the connectivity forums if you have problems!

Hi,

You might also look at the Image Resizer plugin that Emmanuel posted this morning. This will give you a lot more control over image uploads and create thumbnails for you.

Happy new year to ytou all!!

So Max, thanks, I haven't seen the link:
http://www.chronoengine.com/tutorials/18-tutorials/40-chronoconnectivity-tutorial-1.html

I cannot display images, although.

the table is quite long, let's keep the fields I care:
I am in Cronoconnectivity, General tab, body field:
<hr>
<p>
<strong>{cf_user_name}</strong><br>
{file_1}
<br>
</p>
<hr>


where {file_1} is the field name for my uploaded images.
In Admin tab
category_1,category_2,category_3, file_1

are the field names I want to diplay.
I don't need the table is editable.



How to get the uploaded pictures displayed?
gg4j 06 Jan, 2009
I forgot.
Please note that the field of the image uploaded is displayed as text: e.g.

20081220191110_avanti.jpg

Hi gg4j,

Try
<img src='".JULR::base()".components".DS."com_chronocontact".DS."uploads".DS."xxx".DS."{code}' />
