Hi there,

I'm trying to get simplenews content selection to pull through CCK images into the body of newsletters... I have set the display fields for the content type to Image, but this does not seem to be working.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Nic

ok so I think I figured it out... I put the following function(modified from the scs.theme.inc) in my themes template.php file

/**
 * Each selected node goes true this function to create a nice body
 */
function phptemplate_scs_node_output($node) {
  $output = '';
  
  $output = '<div id="node_' . $node->nid . '">';
    $output .= '<img src="' . $node->field_thumbnail_image[0]['filepath'] . '"/>';      //fild_thumbnail_image being the name of the image field I want included in the newsletter
    $output .= '<h1>' . $node->title . '</h1>';
    $output .= '<p>' . node_teaser($node->body) . '</p>';
    $output .= '<p>' . l(t('Read more'), 'node/' . $node->nid) . '</p>';
  $output .= '</div>';
  
  return $output;
}

This is my first time messing around with overiding functions, so is it an acceptable solution?
