My question is pretty simple, and I really hope there's a good answer for it.
How do you manage content images (the images used inside resources) in Revo? Is there an easy way to attach
several images to a page (so that there would be a connection between resource and it's images in the database)?
Let me clarify.
Let's say you have a website with articles added by a content manager on a regular basis. Every article can contain several images — illustrations, photos, etc.
Content manager can handle TinyMCE, but he's by no means a pro user. He's just the owner of the site.
As far as I understand, every time he creates a new article, he needs to:
- go to file manager;
- invent a new name for a folder which will contain images for this article;
- create that folder;
- upload his images;
- get back to the article and insert those images.
This should work fine for 5-10 pages. 20, even. But for 100 articles, it would be a mess. A hundred of manually created folders? And what if someone needs to add an image to specific article? Or to delete one of them? He will need to locate the necessary folder among hundreds, wouldn't he? And how soon content manager will start making mistakes, putting images in wrong folders, deleting something by accident... you get the picture.
Now, in Drupal one can attach images directly to a page, manage them in page editing mode. When the page is deleted, images go down with it. This makes content editing immensely more natural.
Is there a way to achieve something of a kind in MODx? Some extension, perhaps? Or some other way to manage images
with resource, not separately?
