Custom content type image

[eric hansen]

Hi, I've created a custom content type and I would like to show an image in the preview box and I am not sure how to go about doing that.  I can't find any documentation on that either.  Can someone please advise?  Great product by the way!!

Thanks,

Eric

Hi Eric,

Have a look att eea.depiction https://github.com/collective/eea.depiction, you can use that in combination with eea.facetednavigation.

you can then switch the layout to folder summary view or thumbnail view and you should see a preview of your content type.

cheers

Hi Antonio,

I've tried to install eea.depiction but buildout cannot find it.  Where should I be looking for it? 

cheers,

Eric

How come something like depiction isn't being submitted into Plone
core? It seems like a good core feature to me.

Hi again,

Sorry, i see that eea.depiction has still not been release as an egg on pypi.
In the mean time you can use it in development mode, add it to your checkout in buildout and add the github repo source. Otherwise I  will ask Alin if it is ready for release.

Also, make sure your content type has the image in an field with id "image" , alternatively if the content type is folderish the image can be inside  the folder as an Image  content type.

You would probably also need to customize the listing templates to include the thumbnail, i guess. (Maybe this should be part of the eea.depiction package, not sure.)

Hi Alin,

Hi,

I uninstalled everything related to collage and that solved the problem below.

Hi again,

After installing eea.depiction (thanks again) I still cannot get any
image to show up as the faceted preview. Thumbnail view doesn't show
properly, either...that shows up more like the standard view with a
note above stating 'No albums or photos uploaded yet' even though
there is an image field with the id 'image' and (it being a folderish
content type) there are actually images in the folder. I am stumped.
More assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Cheers,
Eric

Hmm, ok, let's see:

- You have Pillow installed as it's a dependency for eea.depiction
- You added all the following ZCML slugs within your buildout:
 

zcml =
  ...
  eea.depiction-overrides
  eea.depiction

- You've installed 'EEA Depiction' within Site Steup > Add-ons (Or ran the upgrade steps).
- You have the 'Generic' image at <PloneSite>/portal_depiction/generic
- This URL doesn't raise NotFound error: portal_depiction/generic/image_thumb

What error do you get when you access localhost:8080/Plone/<path/to/your/folder>/image_thumb ?

What about folder_summary_view?
It should display in the worst case scenario the portal_depiction/generic thumbnail.

[Eric Hansen]

Hi Alin,

All of those are correct, except the folder_thumbnail_view which shows
the folder and says 'No albums or photos uploaded yet'.

If I name the image 'image_thumb' in the object folder it works.
However, it seems as though I need to resize the image. Should that
be done TTW, before I upload the image, or can I resize it in the
preview-item.pt in eea.facetednavigation? Thanks!

Cheers,
Eric

Hi Eric,

1. Ok, I need some screen-shots as I'm not sure I get it. Indeed atct_album_view has some limitations because it tries to figure out if your folder's children are images or not but we need to find a solution for it without overriding it within eea.depiction/skins/ as this is hard to maintain.

2. You can change thumbnails sizes within ZMI > portal_properties > imaging_properties. It remained the same as for plone.app.imaging

Cheers,
Alin
