[solved] CGBlog Additional Fields file_location?

[rbaby]

I added an additional field to CGBlog for just an image upload but when I upload it...I can't find the actual file.

All that appears is a broken image with the path as /filename.jpg so it doesn't appear to be finding the file_location and actually uploading the file. Is there a configuration setting I am missing somewhere?

Thank you in advance.

I have you verified if the images is uploaded?

check the default template, cg usually has a $entry->file_location variable that is suppose to be in front field call.

Hi Jeff,

The file can't be found anywhere, not in root, not in uploads/images. This is what I have in my template that's showing the broken image:

Code: Select all

{if isset($entry->fields)}
  {foreach from=$entry->fields item='field'}
     <div class="CGBlogSummaryField">
        {if $field->type == 'file'}
          <img src="{$entry->file_location}/{$field->value}"/>
        {else}
          <img src="{$entry->file_location}/{$field->value}"/>{$field->name}:&nbsp;{eval var=$field->value}
        {/if}
     </div>
  {/foreach}
{/if}

I also tried:

Code: Select all

{if !empty($entry->fieldsbyname.Image->value)}
<a href="{$entry->detail_url}"><img src="{$entry->file_location}/{$entry->fieldsbyname.Image->value}" width=100px /></a>
{/if}

Paste the contents of <pre>{$entry|@print_r}</pre>

The files are typically uploaded to /uploads/cgblog/cgblog_{$cgblog_id}/ or something like that.

Can you post the url?

I found the image blog.jpg, it was in the directory you mentioned--but why isn't it displaying the image with the proper path?

Is there a way I can just hard code the path? I just don't know how to pass the blog ID for the folder ID.

For those who might be running into the same issue, I found a solution here: http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/bug/view/9933

<img src="{uploads_url}/cgblog/id{$entry->id}/{$field->value}"/>
