Provides support for adding images to articles.
Project description
Introduction
raptus.article.images provides support for multiple images per article.
The following features for raptus.article are provided by this package:
Content
Image - add your images in a article.
Dependencies
archetypes.schemaextender
raptus.article.core
plone.app.imaging
Installation
Note if you install raptus.article.default you can skip this installation steps.
To install raptus.article.images into your Plone instance, locate the file buildout.cfg in the root of your Plone instance directory on the file system, and open it in a text editor.
Add the actual raptus.article.images add-on to the “eggs” section of buildout.cfg. Look for the section that looks like this:
eggs =
Plone
This section might have additional lines if you have other add-ons already installed. Just add the raptus.article.images on a separate line, like this:
eggs =
Plone
raptus.article.images
Note that you have to run buildout like this:
$ bin/buildout
Then go to the “Add-ons” control panel in Plone as an administrator, and install or reinstall the “raptus.article.default” product.
Note that if you do not use the raptus.article.default package you have to include the zcml of raptus.article.images either by adding it to the zcml list in your buildout or by including it in another package’s configure.zcml.
Plone 3 compatibility
This packages requires plone.app.imaging which requires two pins in buildout when using Plone 3, which there are:
Products.Archetypes = 1.5.16 archetypes.schemaextender = 2.0.3 plone.scale = 1.2
Usage
Add image
You may now add images in your article. Click the “Add new” menu and select “Image” in the pull down menu. You get the standard plone form to add your image.
