I use mosce as my editor because it allows image upload form your local machine. My problem is that the images do not show up in the blog if clicking the "show your blog" link from the menu. I have mamblog setup to allow image upload.

If I click a blog link from the CB blog tab the images will show up.

I've tried making several different types of menu links and not one gets the images to show.

Help:huh:

Well, I guess i'm an idiot. I figured out that mamblog puts all your text and images into the main text area and none in the intro text area. What's funny though is that when I go to the show your blog page all the text shows on the main page as if the text was entered into the intro text area.

Ok someone decrease my karma and I'll come back here and post what I figure out later.

i don't think you're an idiot....

and why hasn't anyone else wondered why we can't display images in the "intro" of blog entries?? why has this feature still not been implemented??

will it ever be implemented??

i tried hacking the component, replacing "fulltext" with "introtext", but that didn't work. i don't see where mamblog is creating only fulltext and not introtext.

Find in mamblog.html.php:

[code:1]<td class="createdate" colspan="4" align="left"><?php echo _BLOG_STATE . " " . $state; ?></td>
</tr>
<?php } ?>
<tr>
<td valign="top" colspan="4"> <?php echo $blog->fulltext; ?> </td>
</tr>
<?php if ($mask&MASK_READON && trim( $blog->fulltext ) ) { ?>[/code:1]

(about line 243)

Change
[code:1] <td valign="top" colspan="4"> <?php echo $blog->text; ?> </td>[/code:1]

to

[code:1] <td valign="top" colspan="4"> <?php echo $blog->fulltext; ?> </td>[/code:1]

Voilla

was this confirmed to work? I made the code change and it didn't seem to work.

Yes it works, $blog->fulltext will show entire text of the blog article.

But how can you limit the amount of characters to be shown??
