Display just Image and summary of articles.

Hi,
I want to know the method of display just image and summary of articles on my web... I uploaded image via ckeditor as content. Is there any method to upload image as featured image with article?

Thanks..

Yes. Use an image-type TV, then use getResources (or pdoResources) to list the articles with whatever fields you want, including TVs.

Edit the article and edit the TV to select the image for the article. You can also upload images.

I have a TV named imagetv and set an image against with imagetv in article. In chunck i code as following:

<div class="section">
<a href="[[~[[+id]]]]" title="">[[+pagetitle]]</a>
<p>[[*imagetv]] [[+introtext:ellipsis=`200`]]</p>
<p>[[+publishedon:strtotime:date=`%b %d, %Y`]] | <a href="[[~[[+id]]]]" title="">Read More ›</a></p>
<div class="spacer"></div>
</div>

I am fetching articles as following:

[[Articles? &container=`22`]]
[[+latest_posts]]


But image is not displaying

PS: I have attached a screen shot.

Thanks

Ah. Articles is another matter. I believe in your main Articles configuration page you need to tell it to use TVs.

How can I use TVs in articles in my scenario?
