Filefield image / imagecache / link to full node

I can't get this snippet to work either. The only thing I am changing is the spot where you have "cover" to the imagefield I have defined. Should I also be changing "filepath?' If so is there an example of what it should look like?

Did you clear your cache?

I got it working by updating to the dev version of nodecarousel. Thanks, Steve.

I'm also trying to get this working, and have the latest dev version of the module. Here's what I have for my code:

function deco_nodecarousel_node($node, $name='') {
$content = '<div class="node-carousel-item">';
$node = node_build_content($node, TRUE, FALSE);
$content .= '<div class="hidden nid">'. $node->nid .'</div>';
$content .= '<div class="carousel-image">'. theme('imagecache', 'featured', $node->field_cover[0]['filepath']) .'</div>';
$content .= ''. l($node->field_intro[0]['value'], 'node/'. $node->nid) .'';
$content .= '</div>';
return $content;
}

I'm using the 'deco' theme, and my imagecache is called 'featured'. What ends up showing is broken images with this as the path for them: http://beta.menashalibrary.org/sites/beta.menashalibrary.org/files/image... so, it's not pulling the image from the nodes to display in that box.

Previously, I had this code which did work fine:

function deco_nodecarousel_node($node, $name='') {
  $content = '<div class="node-carousel-item">';
  $image_node = node_load($node->iid);
  $content .= '<div class="node-carousel-title node-carousel-label">'. l(image_display($image_node, IMAGE_ORIGINAL), 'node/'. $node->nid, array('html' => TRUE)) .'</div>';
  $content .= '<div class="hidden nid">'. $node->nid .'</div>';
  $node_words = explode(' ', $node->title);
  $content .= '<div class="teaser"><div class="node-carousel-index">'. $node_words[0] .'</div></div>';
  $content .= '</div>';
  return $content;
}

But, that pulled the image from the image module. I'd much rather use the imagecache module instead.

I'd really appreciate any help you can provide.

Your first code snippet worked ok for me, with the exception that the image did not link to the full node. I made a slight tweak to the code to fix the image link issue and it works just great. I'm using nodecarousel version 1.0, my theme name is cwl, my imagecache preset name is headline and my image field name is field_image_attachment. Here's the template.php code snippet:

function cwl_nodecarousel_node($node, $name='') {
	$content = '<div class="node-carousel-item">';
	$node = node_build_content($node, TRUE, FALSE);
	$content .= '<div class="hidden nid">'. $node->nid .'</div>';
	$carousel_image = '<div class="carousel-image">'. theme('imagecache', 'headline', $node->field_image_attachment[0]['filepath']) .'</div>';
	$content .= l($carousel_image, 'node/'. $node->nid, NULL , NULL,  NULL,  FALSE, TRUE);
	$content .= '</div>';
	return $content;
}

I hope this helps.

I tried your snippet, replacing with my information, and when I view the page I get this error message:

Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in /var/clients/client0/web2/web/includes/common.inc on line 1445

Nevermind. Spent a bit more time with it and I was able to tweak the code to get it to work:

function deco_nodecarousel_node($node, $name='') {
  $content = '<div class="node-carousel-item">';
  $image_node = node_load($node->iid);
$content .= '<div class="carousel-image">'. theme('imagecache', 'featured', $node->field_image[0]['filepath']) .'</div>';
  $content .= '<div class="hidden nid">'. $node->nid .'</div>';
  $content .= '<div class="teaser"><div class="featured-title">'.l($node->title, 'node/' .$node->nid) .'</div><div class="node-carousel-index">'. $node->teaser .' <div id="read-more"> '.l('[Read More]', 'node/'. $node->nid).' </div></div></div>';
  $content .= '</div>';
  return $content;
}

But, that doesn't link the image to the node. I 'think' I need to add in this: 'node/'. $node->nid, array('html' => TRUE)) .

But, any combination I try I end up with an error and it doesn't load. What am I missing?

Thank you so much for your help.

Try this - I added one line of code for the image link...

function deco_nodecarousel_node($node, $name='') {
    $content = '<div class="node-carousel-item">';
    $image_node = node_load($node->iid);
    $content .= '<div class="carousel-image">'. theme('imagecache', 'featured', $node->field_image[0]['filepath']) .'</div>';
    $content .= l($carousel_image, 'node/'. $node->nid, NULL , NULL,  NULL,  FALSE, TRUE);
    $content .= '<div class="hidden nid">'. $node->nid .'</div>';
    $content .= '<div class="teaser"><div class="featured-title">'.l($node->title, 'node/' .$node->nid) .'</div><div class="node-carousel-index">'. $node->teaser .' <div id="read-more"> '.l('[Read More]', 'node/'. $node->nid).' </div></div></div>';
    $content .= '</div>';
    return $content;
}

I replaced my code with yours, and now I get this error when loading the page:

Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in /var/clients/client0/web2/web/includes/common.inc on line 1445

Perhaps it is a D5 versus D6 issue - maybe changes within common.imc? I am running in Drupal Version 5.10. I did notice this common.inc error similar to yours.

Ah, yes. I'm running Drupal 6.4.

I use this method.

For imagecache, got to your content type, edit content type, go to "Display field", change display field as "imagecache as link" in your teaser. You should be able to get a link.

Does this work for you?

Try the snippet for template.php

That didn't work for me, unfortunately. When I looked in there, I noticed it was all ready set to do that. But, alas, it doesn't work at all.

I tried that snippet as well, but unfortunately that didn't cause the image to be a link either.

function abc_feature_1() {
	//$form = array();
  $image = variable_get('featured_imagecache_1','');
	$pid = _imagecache_preset_load_by_name($image);
	$preset = _imagecache_actions_get_by_presetid($pid);
	//usort($preset, '_menu_sort');
	$weight = -700;
	$width = 641;
	$height = 229;
	foreach ($preset as $pr) {
		if ($pr['weight'] >= $weight) {
			$width = $pr['data']['width'];
			$height = $pr['data']['height'];
			$weight = $pr['weight'];
		}
	}
	$_height = $height-5;
	$_width = $width-5;
	$corners = '<div class="corners" id="c_left_top"></div>
	  <div class="corners" id="c_right_top" style="left: '.$_width.'px;"></div>
	  <div class="corners" id="c_left_bottom" style="top: '.$_height.'px;"></div>
	  <div class="corners" id="c_right_bottom" style="top: '.$_height.'px; left: '.$_width.'px"></div>';

	$output = '<div class="teaser"><div class="inner" style="height: '.$height.'px; width: '.$width.'px;">';
  $ul = '<ul class="primary tabs anchors">';
  $image_field = variable_get('featured_imagefield_1','');
  $divs = '';
  $first = 1;
  for ($i = 1; $i <= 5; $i++) {
    $nid = variable_get('featured_block_1_'.$i, '0');
    if ($nid) {
			//<ul>
      $ul .= '<li';
      if ($first) {
        $ul .= ' class="tabs-selected"';
        $first = 0;
      }
      $ul .= '><a href="#" id="tabs-'.$i.'">'.$i.'</a>';
      //<div> - 5
      $node = node_load($nid);
      $height_background = $height;
      $teaser = abc_node_teaser($node, NULL, 180);
      $image = $node->$image_field;

      $divs .= '<div id="tabs-'.$i.'" class="fragment" style="display:none">'.theme('imagecache', variable_get('featured_imagecache_1',''), $image[0]['filepath'], $image[0]['alt'], $image[0]['title']).'<div class="panel-background" style="height: '.$height_background.'px"></div><div class="description"><p class="title"><strong>'.l($node->title, 'node/'.$node->nid).'</strong></p>'.$teaser.'</div>'.$corners.'</div>';
    }
  }
  $ul .= '</ul>';
	$output = ($i > 1) ? $output.$ul.$divs.'</div></div>' : '';
	
	
  return $output;
}

This is a snippet from the template.php of a theme that has similar function. Does the code make any sense to you?
I am still a newbie. Hope this help.
