Problem with images in category blog.

Post by Thodorompalos » Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:28 pm

Hello everyone. I have created a site with pages showing articles in two views. A list view and a thumbnail view. The thumbnail view is a category blog. Each article has an image uploaded through the "Images and links" tab and styled using CSS but in the category blog the images are not displayed, only the text. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this? My version is 3.81.

Maybe your template has an option to disable article images in category view. Check the template options.

It's the Intro Image that will show in the Blog.
Try to view the site with the Protostar template

I think you are both right. Anyway the template doesn't have that many options and Per Yngve Berg it is indeed the intro image that shows in the blog. I fixed that but then it showed me two images. The first one was the normal and the second the intro. I disabled the intro image using CSS and now it shows one. But one problem remains. While in the list view the image is centered as I styled it with CSS, in the thumbnail view it appears left. Anyway, I will work a bit more on this and tell you if I find a solution. Thank you.

OK, I found what was wrong with the image. In the rest of the pages in the category blog I put 3 columns for the images but I did that for the article with one image only too. So I changed that to 1 column and now it is centered. Rookie mistake. Anyway, now all work fine. Thanks again for your help.
