I've created a content type for images that are uploaded to my site. I have created fields with CCK to be used on this content type, and I can display these on the full view of the node, but there doesn't seem to be a way to display the default body field of the node, or am I missing something really obvious?

I've created my own field for the image, and I would like to display the body field below it in the full view of node for the description and other information about the image. I can create another field called 'description', and display that, but then my users will see two 'body' fields when they create an image node.

Any help would be appreciated.

One the "Manage Fields" page for the content type you can reorder the fields so you could drag the body field below the image field (note order applies to both edit form and display)

You could disable the body field and use a CCK field. To disable the body field edit the content type and clear the label for the body field.

In your first para you say there does not appear to be any way to display the default body field of the node. But in the second para you say users will see two body fields of you create a field called description.

Under "Submission form settings" do you have the word "Body" typed in the body field label box? If so, then there should be a default body field visible on the content type you have created.

Thanks for your replies; just sat down at a different computer, and it seems to be working as expected - text in the body field is showing up below the image as its supposed to.

Not sure what was going on there, but maybe changing the order of the fields made a difference.
