I need to display images (ie background images) in a cloned pages setup, but I would like to let my client choose them from the admin panel. So far I have managed to make this work using Couch dropdown and CSS classes, however, I would like to show small thumbnails of these background images in the admin panel. I have tried using the <cms:thumbnail> tag but no success so far. Is this possible? Apologies if this question has been asked and answered before.
There is no dedicated editable region available yet that would show thumbnails of all items available for selection, I'm afraid.I would like to show small thumbnails of these background images in the admin panel
That said, if you were to define a type 'image' editable region, the user can open up the file-explorer from it to choose an image from.
The file-explorer shows the thumbnails of all images so the user shouldn't have any difficulty in choosing the right image.
To make things more streamlined, you may keep all background images in a single folder (say named 'bg-images').
Do you think the above arrangement wouldn't suffice?
