Is there any way to convert an existing CCK imagefield to a Link Image Field within a content type? If so, can the URL be defaulted to the node URL?

Wondering if there's a way to do this as well - in D6.

I just blindly installed this module in D6, and changed my "Basic" settings for an existing imagefield from Image to ImageLink, and it didn't seem to disturb anything. Mind you in my use case, my field only saves one image, not multiples, so I can't comment on those.

I then had to change my display settings to use the LinkImage for one of my ImageCache profiles, and everything seems to be working as designed.

One note, all existing images link to my page, so I'm going through and editing. You can set another default URL, however it doesn't support tokens, so you can only use a single URL for all images across the site as a default if I understand correctly from reading another issue in this queue.

Hope this helps someone. I flew blind solo with no backup; you might want to show more sanity. ;)
