i will try to alter the category_item.php file (or any other file that might need changing) to force trigger the plugin before extracting the image and report back just in case anybody else need this...

Again, thanks for the effort and you time.

Hello

-- actually my previous comment was not 100% correct,
if you have configured the description plugin to trigger content plugins, then they are already triggered

-- just the extract image uses:

Code:

$items[$i]->introtext;

but it should use:

Code:

$items[$i]->fields['text']->display

-- you said you want to modify
category_items.php (OR category_items_html.php)
of FLEXIcontent blog template

So find:

Code:

$src = flexicontent_html::extractimagesrc($items[$i]);

and replace with:

Code:

$tmp_descr = new stdClass();
$tmp_descr->introtext = $items[$i]->fields['text']->display;
$tmp_descr->fulltext = '';
$src = flexicontent_html::extractimagesrc($tmp_descr);
//$src = flexicontent_html::extractimagesrc($items[$i]);
