Imagefield does not show image in Drupal 5.6

Yup.

Just to repeat my elaboration on your initial observation of this:

In node edit, previously published images are not shown. Images will be re-appear in the image field form if you hit the upload button whether you are uploading further images or just leaving the browse box empty. Even if you make no changes the original images will re-appear in node view when re-submitted.

Do you mean that this becomes default behaviour?

I'm not sure most users of the module or the users on their sites will understand this...

trogie, I'm not really sure what you mean by "this becomes default behaviour" - do you mean intended behaviour? If so, no it is not meant to be - this is a bug report for something that, in this instance, did not occur in previous releases. I'd say it's pretty minor - no images are 'lost' - they just do not automatically re-appear when opening the node to edit.

ok, no problem then (except for that buggy)

Further information:
this only happens when editing nodes with created with a 5.x-2.0-rc2 imagefield. When editing nodes that were created before upgrading from 5.x-1.2-rc1 to 5.x-2.0-rc2, the uploaded images appear as they should.

Output from firebug, using Firefox 2.0 on Ubuntu, when visiting /admin/content/types/artikel/fields/field_beeld01:

as well as the image dissappearing from the edit screen, its alt and title attributes are lost. Forever. I resubmit them, but they don't appear in the content_field_myField table.

Can confirm #10 yet if further images are added, while editing the node, their attributes are retained (that is, only for the newly added images).

Hi,

If we go back to RC1 the symptoms are the same.

Well - i also lost images while updating!

I have also run into the same issue after upgrading to 5.x-2.0-rc2. The bad thing about this bug is that the alt and title attributes, as previously noted, are lost. So when a user, after updating the node with an image, hits save button, he will delete the image attributes. After node update, the image still comes up in the node but with empty title and alt tags. At least, that's the problem I have after the update.

hmm seems like I busted imagefield_field op == load... It's better now in the DRUPAL-5--2 branch.

It's ok now. Thanks!

This happens again when you update to drupal 5.6

HEAD is not DRUPAL-5--2 and is not a branch you should be running... It's currently kind of broken... You should stick to the DRUPAL-5--2 branch for now.

Darrel, it seems no 5.x-2.x-dev release is available on the releases page, so people willing to follow latest commits might be tempted to use HEAD :-)

It this solved? I run Image Field 5.x-2.0-rc2 and still can't see the images in edit mode. What can I do?

Try this patch. It works for me. Only one line is added in function imagefield_field().

Just tried the patch - and sadly still the same problems:

Images don't show on the edit node form.
Clicking on upload does show them, but deletion doesn't work.
On one content type I have, resubmitting the post having made only text changes deletes the image every time.

Hmm. I have installed Drupal 5.7 and imagefield works for me. I don't know if it will be helpful information but try 1) create temporary directory inside 'file' directory and set absolute path to it (like /home/users/me/public_html/files/tmp) 2) install Transliteration module 3) patch imagefield with my patch. I have no more ideas...

Yeah I'm getting the same as everyone else. I've tried it on a few older versions of 5.6 and 5.2, along with current. The consensus is the same. I can upload the image, and it displays perfectly within the node, but once I hit edit the image I added is nowhere to be seen, instead I'm presented with a fresh new upload button. It pretty much acts like I haven't added an image in edit view, but in display view it displays fine. Not sure what the issue is, as I'm no coder. But I look forward to a fix soon.

Goodluck.

What about module Jquery Update? Have you installed this one?

Hi,

Just to report back, the patch didn't seem to make any difference, but putting on transliteration has fixed the issue for any new uploads now, which is great - though unexpected.

Thanks for the advice :)

I am still seeing this behaviour in 5.7 and RC4. As a matter of fact, any time the node is edited, all the imagefield images disappear.

Actually, never mind. The behaviour seems to have fixed itself, but not all the time. I will test it further and add comments here or open a new ticket. Fingers crossed! :)
