webcontent-template -> using thumbnails images from document-library (6.2)

[Marco Walz, modifié il y a 9 années.]

Hello,

I have the use-case that I want to create a structure and template for webcontent where I can access thumbnail-images of the document-library.

Searching for this led me to following thread: https://www.liferay.com/es/community/forums/-/message_boards/message/12587746

I exactly need the solution posted by Davide N. P. Rossi. Is this still possible in Liferay 6.2? I can't add the type "document-library" in webcontent-structures. Either the functionality has been removed or I'm to silly to get it working.

I also have a question about the image-type "wcm-image". Where does the uploaded image get saved? I only see records in database with id's but I can't find the uploaded images of this type in document-library.

I just don't want to upload the same image multiple times. I want to have images in one place and access it through document-library. So it is important to have thumbnails because otherwise the whole image ( e.g. size of 5MB ) is loaded.

Please help me

Thanks
Marco

Hi marco

I have tried the solution posted by Davide N. P. Rossi on LR 6.2 and it works perfectly following those steps :

add the following properties to your portal-ext.properties

    dl.file.entry.thumbnail.custom1.max.height=X
    dl.file.entry.thumbnail.custom1.max.width=Y
    dl.file.entry.thumbnail.custom2.max.height=X1
    dl.file.entry.thumbnail.custom2.max.width=Y1

Where X, Y, X1, Y1 are the sizes you want to set.

The structure code is:

<root available-locales="en_US" default-locale="en_US">
	<dynamic-element datatype="document-library" fieldnamespace="ddm" indextype="keyword" name="Imagefield" readonly="false" repeatable="false" required="false" showlabel="true" type="ddm-documentlibrary" width="">
		<meta-data locale="en_US">
			<entry name="label">
				Documents and Media
			</entry>
			<entry name="predefinedValue">
				
			</entry>
			<entry name="tip">
				
			</entry>
		</meta-data>
	</dynamic-element>
</root>

The template code is:

#set ($myImage = $Imagefield.getData())

<a href="$myImage" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="$myImage"></a>
<a href="$myImage" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="$myImage&amp;imageThumbnail=1"></a>
<a href="$myImage" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="$myImage&amp;imageThumbnail=2"></a>
<a href="$myImage" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="$myImage&amp;imageThumbnail=3"></a>

Create the web content and it should works.

I'm really confused. I could swear I tried to do it in this way and it didn't work.

Well, it's working now. Thanks!
