Display image in the title

Post by Jr Prod »

Hi everybody,

I would like to display an image near to the title. But it wouldn't be an image assiciated to a category but a different image for each note.
I don't have any idea how to do that, so thanks for any clue. :D

Try to edit your entries.tpl template, there you can insert any HTML you like. Or use CSS and the background-image property to style elements.

Yep, but if I do this, all my entries will have the image near to the title. My wish is that only entries that talk about argentina would have a little flag near to the title...

That sounds nice. Where can I find this. Is that a plugin or is there an option in the sending formular ?

Thanks

ok here is the solution. :)

First open up entries.tpl (don't change the default entries.tpl, copy one to ur template folder and change that) and find this line

Code: Select all

        <h4 class="serendipity_title"><a href="{$entry.link}">{$entry.title}</a></h4>
replace it with this line

Code: Select all

                <h4 class="serendipity_title"><img src="{$entry.properties.ep_icon}" /><a href="{$entry.link}">{$entry.title}</a></h4>
Now install "Extended properties for entries" and type this in your custom fields.

then when u make a new post u just type in the url of the flag
Image

thats it, ur done.
now if u don't provide a url then a question mark appears. there is a way to detect if a smarty field is empty of not, garvin might know that.
if not then i'll look into it more. u could just call the whole <img> tag as a field that way u don't have to worry about the question amrk.

try it out and let me know.

I'm in LOVE with this custom fields thingy. :oops:
