Image field problem.
Mon, 07/07/2008 - 20:24
Hello,
My client just purchased this theme for me to use on one of their sites so far the instalation has been going very well until i try to post content. I have set up the Story content type to have a image field, named it the exact same as the video tutorial and configured it to its defaults.
When i try to upload an image using the 'imagetheme' field i made (as per the video tutorial) it just doesn't work. The image doesn't show up although the alternate text and title fields do show up as if it was sucessful. When i post the story anyway the story will show up in blocks 2 and 3 (with no image) and not show up at all in block 1 (also causing some formatting side effects).
I have read elsewhere on this forum that we must use specific modules for this theme to work and whatnot. Im using imagecache 1.6 since i couldn't download 1.5, ImageAPI 1.2, Imagefield 2.1 and CCK 1.7. These were the closest stable versions i could download. Would any of these be the problem?
Thanks in advance,
MarcusB

NP, glad i could help
Note for other users:
The file permissions on all imagecache folders should use 775. If you are having problems with the images displaying on the front page or any other page of your theme, please check the source code.
If you see the image file path being shown in the source but the image does not show up, then check your folder permissions /files/imagescache/... etc. For some reason 775 isn't by default on some hosting accounts but this should fix the issue.
