Displaying an image thumbnail in CMSB

Is there a way to display a thumbnail in CMSB of an image that has been uploaded into the system? I don't mean on a live webpage, I mean see the pic within CMSB.

Where would you like to see this image in CMSB?

In a record list?

Hi, Jerry.

Sorry, I should have given a better explanation. I've attached a screen shot to show where I would like to see the thumbnail of the image that I've added to the system.

Thanks.

If I'm understanding correctly, that should be pretty easy for a multi record section.

Go to Section Editors under the CMS Setup menu

Click on modify for the Banner Advertisement editor

Add your image field name (not the Field Label) followed by a comma in the ListPage Fields where you want to see the image thumbnail.

Save the details and you should see the thumbnail where you indicated in the attachment

Caveat: You'll only see one image. Either the single uploaded image or the first image if there are multiple images uploaded.

Hope that helps,

That's what I did before, but it doesn't seem to be working.

Double check the spelling of the field name, any underscores, extra spaces, and the comma.

What kind of image is this? (png, jpg, etc)?

Is thumbnail checked in the section's upload field editor?

If not, check the box and then re-create to the right of the size boxes

I'll mock something up here if that doesn't solve the issue

Hi, Jerry. Thanks for the advice. I hadn't clicked the thumbnail option, but I have now, and it still isn't showing up. The spelling and case both match.
