Hi, Having spent the past <b>two days</b> reading hundreds of posts on how to display images, I am still unable to display content images within my ezpublish templates. Please help! I'm beginning to go mad... I am using 3.5.0, and have created an article using the standard 'article' class (for which the image field is of type 'object relation'). I know want to display both the article text, and corresponding image together. I have overridden the node/view/full template for the article class, with the following:
{*?template charset=utf-8?*}
<div class="pagetitle">
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.title}
</div>
<div class="imageleft">
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image image_class=medium}
</div>
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.intro}
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.body}
This displays the article nicely, but - as with many other people - the image is just a link to the image object and isn't displayed at all. Having read suggestions in these forums to override /content/view/embed.tpl for the image object, I tried, to no avail. Now that I've enabled template debugging, I see the following templates are being invoked: design/gv/override/templates/article_view_full.tpl (my article override template)
which then invokes the following template when loading the image: design/standard/templates/content/view/text_linked.tpl Why is text_linked being invoked? Should I be overriding text_linked to make my image display? This seems more than a little odd! Please can someone tell me what to do - or where to look for a setting to change. I'm tearing my hair out. I'm very impressed with ez - and the power it offers. However, I do feel somewhat let down by the documenation - the basic stuff is great (tscm website, etc) - but there's little more beyond that. Am I missing some great resource or something? The learning curve for anything more than very basic stuff seems to very steep. I'm determined to get there though!
Thanks, Simon

You HAVE to override: content/view/embed.tpl Try finding it somewhere on the complete template list. You'll probably have to list few pages, but you'll find it. As for the documentation, you're right, it is poor.

Thanks for your reply. I currently have an override on /content/view/embed.tpl:
The override matches class_identifier : image It currently contains a copy of the contents of the ezimage.tpl file from within the admin overrides - as suggested elsewhere. However, as you can see from the template trace above, it's never invoked - it seems that for some reason, /content/view/embed.tpl - or my override - is never being touched. Which would explain why they're not appearing. <i>But why?!</i> Simon

I think this should work:
...
<div class="imageleft">
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image.content.data_map.image image_class=medium}
</div>
...

Thanks! You are an utter <b>lifesaver</b>! That works beautifully. So, if I understand correctly, ez wasn't able to determine the object class, and so wasn't rendering it using the correct template. Does anyone know why? Is my setup dodgy? Or should I always reference images with {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image.content.data_map.image image_class=medium}
I believe I just copied and pasted code from the examples and tutorials here...
Thanks again, Simon

To me it looks like your attribute is an object link, and the image you want to display is in the object you linked to.
$node.object.data_map.image refers to the attribute that contains the image-object. The last part (content.data_map.image) refers to the actual image. At least this is the case when I use the syntax :-) Roy

This line worked for me:
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image}
Have you tried clearing the cache. Also some cache directives can sometimes prevent some templates from loading. Try putting this line I suggested, clear all the cache and if then doesn't work try turning of completely the cache. If that doesn't work, I don't know what's the problem.

I had tried clearing the cache, disabling the cache, enabling the cache, enabling debugging, disabling debugging, etc, etc... It's pretty much a clean install (manual one at that) with little else on top. Fortunately the suggestion to use the longer attribute worked. Now I'm stuck trying to understand the menu system... I need something like the thing on the right of here - a nice tree-based menu listing all nodes below a particular depth... but it's not working yet!
Cheers, Simon

Making those changes to remove ImageMagick unfortunately make no difference at all - I'm still getting just a link. Both GD and ImageMagick are installed - and working. The files are being uploaded and resized fine in the storage area; They're just not being correctly templated by ez.

What is your output from
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image}
or
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.image}

Optionaly you can use this
<img src={$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].url|ezroot}
width="{$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].width}"
height="{$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].height}" border="0"
alt="{$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].text|wash(xhtml)}"
title="{$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].text|wash(xhtml)}" />

Hi Luke, I tried the following code, testing all of your suggestions:
<div class="imageright">
1:{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image.content.data_map.image}
2{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image}
3{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.image}
4:<img src={$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].url|ezroot}
width="{$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].width}"
height="{$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].height}" border="0"
alt="{$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].text|wash(xhtml)}"
title="{$node.data_map.image.content['medium'].text|wash(xhtml)}" />
</div>
with an image named "War and Greed", it came up with the following. As you can see, the longer {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image.content.data_map.image} code worked, but not any of the other versions...
<div class="imageright">
1:
<img src="/var/gv/storage/images/media/images/war_and_greed_banners/257-2-eng-GB/war_and_greed_banners_large.jpg" width="256" height="287" border="0" alt="Banners for 'war' and 'greed'" title="Banners for 'war' and 'greed'" />

<a href="/media/images/war_and_greed_banners">War and Greed Banners</a>

Warning: this is NOT a solution ;) I installed ezPublish yesterday, after installing ImageMagick. During the initial "fine tuning", ImageMagick was detected, but the first gallery in the default setup "plain", did not show any image. I reinstalled ezPublish (purging and recreating the db), no change. Rather discouraging: if a standard setup does not work, and it is so difficult to show a stupid flower... why should i investigate further? At the moment, I do not understand this all thread, it seems to me I need a lot of study, it seems to be you need to be an expert from the beginning.

It looks to me something strange is happening with your eZ. This code: {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.image} works perfectly for me, haven't got a clue why it shouldn't. Maybe someone from eZ crew could give you a better answer.
