Description

Hi,

I think this is a bug. I installed the 'Teaser Images' module on my local site, but the images are not showing on the teaser pages. When I check my sites log, there are errors like this:

Type page not found

and:

My images folder contains teaser images called: "psapp_shop.teaser.jpg" and "susheela.teaser.jpg", not "psapp_shop.preview.teaser.jpg" and "susheela.preview.teaser.jpg", so I guess that incorrect filenames are being generated, either when making the teaser images, or when generating the html. Or perhaps I'm doing something wrong!

I suppose I could rename the images as a workaround (haven't tried this yet), but it would be good if there was a way to fix the error.

Thanks for the module, btw.

Hi vikicica22,

I think this module's a bit of a dead duck! :(

I'm still using it though. I have to manually rename the files myself. I had a couple of issues with permissions, etc. All the image files were owned by Apache, so I had no RENAME permissions. I had to ask my host to 'change ownership' of those files.

It's a bit of a pain in the posterior, but seems to work. I haven't got many images though. If you had a lot, it could become really annoying!

Someone recommended me to use imagecache instead, but I haven't got round to that yet...

Good luck!
