Re: [Kittybiccy] Image having multiple thumbnails of different sizes

Hi Hannah,

Yes, in CMS Builder you can have up to 4 different thumbnails for an uploaded image.

If you go into your section editor and click "modify" on your upload field, under the "Input Validation" section, you'll see 4 checkboxes to "Create Thumbnail". Check the boxes for the number of thumbnails you want to create and input the height and width you want for each one. If you already have images uploaded to that field you can click the "recreate" link to create those thumbnails.

Finally, when you are outputting your images you can use the thumbnail number to get the different sizes. For example, the first thumbnail would look like this:

<img src = "<?php echo $image['thumbUrlPath']" height = "<?php echo $image['thumbHeight'];?>" width = "<?php echo $image['thumbWidth'];?>" />

The second thumbnail would look like this:

<img src = "<?php echo $image['thumbUrlPath2']" height = "<?php echo $image['thumbHeight2'];?>" width = "<?php echo $image['thumbWidth2'];?>" />

and so on up to 4.

Hope this helps get you started.
