No Pathauto URL alias generated for imported images

The problem is in the image module, the function 'image_create_node_from' (that allow other modules to create image nodes) did not set $node->pathauto_perform_alias to TRUE, so the pathauto module do not create an alias...

The info of the image.module to apply the patch:

; $Id: image.info,v 1.2 2006/11/20 04:22:27 walkah Exp $
name = Image
description = Allows uploading, resizing and viewing of images.

i don't think that it's fair for the path auto module to assume that every other module is going to set it's flags for it. i'm very tempted to mark this as won't fix.

It's the only way to generate an automatic path while importing... without changing too much things. Maybe an opt in option could allow user to choose either or not to generate a path, but I think all the programmatically created images should have an automatic path if pathauto is installed.

OK, that patch works on 5.x-2.x-dev.

Is this still an issue? Did you update to the latest version?

It is.

Subscribing.

Anyone tried this lately?
