Hi, im quite new to Flexicontent and have a question. Im using Fc on a news website so i have categorys for different regions. Now i create an article with a text intro then an image then the rest of the story. The articles are fine but when i go to the category the articles are there but this images are missing. I think i played around with the settings a little too much can anyone give me an idea how to fix this?

Many thanks in advance B)

Hello

you say that you have "added an image",
how did you add the image ?

you added inside description ?
you added using FLEXIcontent image field
you added inside "compatibility TAB (image / links TAB)" (this is the Joomla article Intro / Full images)

can you post a picture of FLEXIcontent item form?

Hi Thanks for your reply.

I have made a little progress- Let me explain.
When i create the article in FC item manager i upload the text and image at the same time - then complete the SEO and other variables - when i publish the article it is fine - all good :)
However when i look in the category on one of the menus at the frontend the first article is the leading one and then a column of 2 articles. Now the first Article is missing almost everything : i have an example here of what it looks like: efinews.net/europe

Any help to fix this is appreciated - Thanks

Hello

i think you are using the Joomla Intro / Full images

You can do this:

1. Create a FLEXIcontent image-gallery field
and in its configuration select "Image source" to be: Joomla Intro / Full images

2. In category click to the "edit layout" configuration (note this will effect all other categories that use the -same- layout)
and in it select the new image field

If you still have problem showing image then
you may send a PM with super admin access to review this

Hi thanks for the reply and apologies for the late response. I did as you suggested and created an image-field but then got completely lost and it seems the more i click on variables the worse it gets. Happy to PM you login and grateful for your assistance.

Note: There is a regional menu in top position and a side menu - all have categories and my aim is to have a visitor click on a category in which they will see 1 lead item with header,image and intro text with read more followed by 2 columns with same settings.

Thanks so much and will pm you login asap.
