Description
Block shows when imagefield has no images in it. Currently I am using the "show on all pages except" display permission set in the block administration section-- but this doesn't help with new content added by non-admin users.
Is there a pending fix, or a php snippet I could put in the block admin settings?
My issue seems identical to this one: http://drupal.org/node/314168?mode=2&sort=2

Temporary fix: Add the following to jcarousel_block/includes/imagefield.inc (insert line 27):
/*** Kluge added to keep from showing when no image in field
* @todo switch "field_image", a specific CCK name for my installation, to variable naming the image_field that goes in this block
*/
else if ($node->field_image[0]['filepath'] == null) {
return false;
}

I'm having the same problem on v1.6 .
This wasnt happening before.
But yesterday i upgraded my Drupal installation from 6.9 to 6.10 and then upgraded CCK and a few other modules and since then, i'm having this problem.

I just updated to the last version (6.x-1.x-dev from March 20th, 2009) and the same thing still happens.
So i applied rgammon's mini-fix and all is well.
I dont like that we have to hardcode the fieldname but at least it works.
Thanks rgammon.
I hope yang_yi_cn looks at this soon :)

Hi,
I have the same problem, I applied the fix but it didn't work as expected.
I have applied on a cck imagefield source of 4 images, when I upload for example just 2 of 4 images using imagefield, in the carousel view I have the 2 images and 2 question marks "?" under safari, because I uploaded only 2 images, and under firefox I have 2 blank squares.
Moreover the thumbnails in the carousel are not fitting in it...
Any ideas ?
Thanks,

Which fix have you applied?
rgammon or the new dev version from yang?
As for the thumbnails problem, check the Documentation on this site.
#7
I just applied the new dev version by yang, but it didn't change anything, for the thumbnails fitting problem it's a CSS conflict I guess.
#8
Just to change the topic status, I tried to fix it but it still didn't...
#9
I didnt apply the new version yet, will report later.
About the thumbnails, yes its a CSS thing: http://drupal.org/node/405650
