Answered getResources list, how to include images??

I'm looking to do a gR implementation to reproduce this website page:

http://www.mountainweaversguild.org/Products/Products.html

The left-side menu is easy, and the main content section is the same with pictures included.

What's the correct technique to include the pictures with the li a elements created by gR??

I've seen mentions on the internets of TVs but no clear explanations anywhere of what/how to do...

Thank you, Tom

you just need to create an image-TV for your resources template and add the image-tv-placeholder to your getResurces-tpl.

Don't forget to add the &includeTVs=`1` property to your getResources-tag.
For more Info about getResources-properties see:

How does it know which image goes with which list element??
I read the TV display info in the above readme.
Thank you, Tom

lets say you have an image-TV in your Resources, which you're listing with getResources, named myImageTV

place this into your getResources-tpl:

I understand placing the image tpl/TV -- what I don't understand is how to link a specific image with a specific resource menu item.

Please look at the URL provided -- each product has a distinct image associated with it.

Thank you, tom [ed. note: TomMLS last edited this post 14 years, 6 months ago.]

use something like this in your gR Tpl



If your using HTML5 you can just use one a href to encapsulate both the text and the image.

Hope that helps.

If not using html5 why must one have two a href links??
What's not clear to me is how to link specific images with specific menu items.
Thank you, Tom

I think the above example should be:

Ohhhhhhhh...the image TV is used by the resources themselves.
That is clearer, I need an image TV with both image and text for the alt/title tag.
Now I understand what to do.
Thank you, Tom
