Issue with item image size & universal content module

Hi,

there seems to be an issue with the display of flexicontent universal content module on an flexicontent item's page: an item's image (in item view) is suddenly displayed in smaller size than desired and no matter what parameters I change, always the small thumb (with prefix s_) is displayed. This noramlises as soon as I deactivate the module, so it seems that the module "takes control" of the thumbnail display of your item's view.


I went through the whole code of the module and ended up with the field helper, which is also used for the module, and found the line that causes it:
around line 645 in this file
components/com_flexicontent/classes/flexicontent.fields.php

The problem can be temporarily solved by changing this: to this:
Basically ignoring the view setting for the module output.
I am not sure if there is a better solution (a setting that I might have overlooked) or if it's a bug, but the "hack" works for me.

Hello

the item displayed in item view is same as one of the items displayed by the module

[updated]
the above was a question, by mistake i wrote it as if it was a statement

Thank you. I realised that, but I find it a little disturbing, I wouldn't have expected this as both have their own settings. Therefore I thought it might not be on purpose...

Hello

sorry,
my previous message was a question,
- by mistake -
i wrote it, as if it was a statement


-- so you have answered my question:
in your case,
module displays current item too

The reason for the issue is that HTML display of each item-field pair is creates display once,

so module code is executed first and it create the field first

- will examine what we can do about it

in your case, (if appropriate),
you can configure the module to exclude the current item from the list

OK, I will try that. But for this website I need the item in the module too and can't exclude it, as I use the module as some kind of accordion-menu, where the active item should also appear, of course.

I am a huge fan of the flexicontent module, it solves (with a bit of coding/templating skills) nearly every challenge from dynamic menus to slideshows etc. etc.

Maybe have a look at the code line I have changed, does it have a disadvantage to change that so display is not renderered the same in module / item view?

Terry
