Image Articles Module

 Improved Articles module with image upload support. Administrator can publish articles along with an image (optionally) and change the regular articles layout. Functionality is the same as in the Image News module (http://www.boonex.com/m/image-news-module-2011-06-21)

Main features of the module:

- Administrator can upload an image along with articles
- Edit articles and select other image to upload.
- Images are cropped and resized so that all images have the same ratio.
- Articles can be shown in 2 different layouts: 

  1. Image is shown as a background (behind text) as in the following screenshot (index page with 3 articles entries in each page):

   2. Image is resized and placed next to text as in the following screenshot (index page with 3 articles entries in each page):

 

Below is a screenshot of an articles post as shown with the image uploaded:

 

Administration page, with the additional image field:
 

 

Installation is quite easy, just like regular Boonex modules. To avoid any conflict, you're recommended to uninstall existing Boonex Articles module (if you've already installed it). 
You also have to specify write permissions for the folder where images are stored.

Dolphin versions 7.0.4 - 7.0.8 are currently supported!

I can get a picture on article now after adding on this module, but I no longer have options to format the text. Additionally, the picture is pixeled to distortion. Why do I only have two options of picture placement (behind and to the side)? Suggestions?

Hello hornsarriba,

The module supports these two options (behind and to the side), as on the upper screenshots. If the images are pixeled, then the resolution of the image is quite low, and after the resize they are pixeled.
As for the formatting, you mean formatting the text in the captions section of the articles entry? Formatting should be applied through the TinyMCE editor.
If the problem persists, don't hesitate to send me a message.

Regards,

I like this mod very much!
It is so simple to set up and it adds a bit of class to my Articles mod. The fact that you can attach an image to an article is very important in my view point and this mod lets you choose if you want to have the image behind the title text or right next to it. I love both options!!

The value of this mod is great compared to its price and Kazatzo is a great guy who helped me with every question I had and every change I wanted to make.

Great mod! Great service!!! see more *****
