News image path?

[nervino]

Hello, I'm using cmsms 2.1.3 and News module 2.50.5.
In News module I've created a custom field (type:file) that I use to upload an image.
In old version of the module I used:

Code: Select all

{$entry->file_location}/{$entry->miniatura}

in the template but this doesn't work anymore.
Now I can get the file name with

Code: Select all

{$field->value}

but I'm unable to get the file path.

How can I do?

Thank you

The $field variable usually only exists in sample templates that iterate the item fields (which the module developer doesn't know upfront will exist).

Try something like (didn't check for exact syntax):

{$entry->file_location}/{$entry->fields.miniatura->value}

Hi Velden,
{$entry->file_location} doesn't output anything.
I also tried {$entry|print_r} but there isn't the file path in $entry object.

Just tested on new install of cmsms 2.1.3:

Code: Select all

<!-- file location: {$entry->file_location} -->

from within news detail template (summary too) just outputs url to directory of image:

Code: Select all

<!-- file location: http://temp.xxx.nl/cmsms2/uploads/news/id1 -->

I made a new fresh install and it works. Now I'm going to check the other installation to see what's the issue with it.

Thank you very much for your help!
