David Jones	Thursday 07 September 2006 2:01:12 am How do I make the media folder display image thumbnails. When I click to display thumbnails I simply get a file icon, not the thumb of the image. I assume that this is not what is ment by thumbnail. Any ideas?

David Jones	Tuesday 17 October 2006 7:53:07 am I'm not sure I understand. I've created an overide for the design/admin/templates/node/view/line.tpl template. In it I've included the following. {if eq({$node.class_identifier, 'image')} <a href={$node_url\|ezurl} title="{'Node ID: %node_id Visibility: %node_visibility'\|i18n( 'design/admin/node/view/line',, hash( '%node_id', $node.node_id, '%node_visibility', $node.hidden_status_string ) )}">{/section}{$node_name\|wash} {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.item.data_map.image image_class=small} </a> {/if} But this doesn't seem to work. Can somebody point me in the right direction. Thanks

Claudia Kosny	Friday 20 October 2006 4:36:39 pm Hi David The template that deals with displaying the subitems of a node is admin/templates/children.tpl. And in there the template admin/templates/children_thunbnail.tpl is included if you selected the thumbnail view. So have a look at these templates to solve your problem. It is working fine for me so I can't give you any tips where exactly to start. Greetings from Luxembourg Claudia
David Jones	Monday 23 October 2006 6:51:41 am Claudia, You are right, it does seem to be using that template but instead of displaying the actual image it is display an icon that represents an image. Maybe there is a settings file somewhere which says what icons are attached to what classes? Maybe such a file will also allows the actual image to be displayed instead? Any ideas?
