Define which Image to be used as Thumbnail in pages blueprint

[marc22761]

I managed to define the image to be queried for the thumbnail (thanks to the forum) on my panel blueprints. But I don’t know how to do it for my panel homepage (site yml I guess). Its picking up an editorial page of the site, but not the cover image.

I found this post, which seems to go into a similar direction, but it didn’t help me to sove the issue.

Add fields to pages preset

Hi there! Is there a way to view the presets in yml form somewhere? This would be helpful to modify them. What I’m trying to do is add normal fields to the bottom of (or anywhere on) a “pages” preset, but I have no idea how to do this without the fields section overwriting everything. do I put it inside a section? I still don’t quite get it I think… title: Site preset: pages fields: text: type: text edit: I realize this is fairly easily solvable by simply using the page preset, but I f…

Marc

If you don’t define anything in your pages sections, the first image in the page folder is used, or if that doesn’t exist, an icon if defined in the page blueprint, or if no icon is defined, a standard icon.

The same logic is true if you define an image like page.cover.toFile but that image doesn’t exist, either because no cover image is selected in a cover field, or the selected image doesn’t exist anymore or because the field doesn’t exist.

The first view you usually see when you open the Panel is the site view, which is defined through site.yml. The homepage is actually a page with its own blueprint.

I was referring to the site view, not the homepage.
