Originally, by identifying the country of each coin I have in my catalogue, I had selected 'Select' as the field type, and simply selected a country from the list.  I wanted to add an image of a flag for each country, so I created a new Country field, and changed Select to 'Checkbox Image' and after doing so, it completely wiped all the data from that field on every entry I have in my catalogue.  Now I have to go re-add the coin's Country value for every entry (over 1700).  It's just doing to take a long time to do this.  However...

The Checkbox Image field type seemed to work, but now I can't get the image of the flag to show in the item.  May I ask what could possibly the the problem with this?  I thought it might be easy to do since I was selecting the name of the Country and it would automatically display the flag icon in the same field.  But apparently not.

Thanks
Dan

hello
can you post your field configuration ? and a direct link to see field in front ?
the concept of the checkbox image is to display image in front no problem with this i think you have problem in your field config

Hi Micker, please see the attachments to check my configuration.

Image 01 shows where I changed the Field type to Checkbox Image (rather than 'Select' as Select doesn't allow images, it has to be either Checkbox Image or Radio Image).
Image 02 shows where I have defined my countries in 'Values Creation'.
Image 03 shows where I have defined the image name for the Country
Image 04 shows where I can select the Country checkbox image for the coin.

But if you view the first image on the website, it now shows the country, but not the flag image (I've only fixed a couple of entries, so where you see "Canada" listed as a country, that's where I want to see the flag.

Wait! I think I found it! Under 'Viewing' and 'Layout', I selected 'Image and label', and now it shows the flag and the Country name!
