Can anyone suggest a solution for having multiple images per page.
I’m looking at the Gallery package, but I cringe at the thought of having to create an album every time I create a resource (that needs it)
I’m quite new to the Revo so maybe there is a way to do this...
basically I would like to specify a type of TV, and that tv would have an ’add’ button and a ’remove button’ and I could add and remove the tv as many time as needed. I’ve looked at the database on evo, and it seems like it should be possible, though the core didn’t support it, any chance that this changed in REVO?
alternatively, I guess I could create a table that has [id][resource id][title][alt][url]
but then that would take me a while to implement that with the resource edit view
thanks
To my knowledge(limited).
You could create a TV of type Image give it a name if you want a default Image, then assign to a template, and include TV placeholder in the template code or chunk or snippet used by template.
When you edit Resource with above template you can edit TV in Tab.
If you need more than one image per Resource you will need as many TV’s as images.
Hope this helps you.

If I want 11 images and only have room for 10 it won’t work without adding another tv. Then if I only want 3 there’s all the open fields that are not used. While this would have been my temporary solution, that’s exactly what I didn’t want to do.

I’m pretty sure that this is what I needed, I’ll have a look over this and see if I can incorporate it.
