Thumbnails don't show up in the panel

Kirby 3 Solved ✅

I want to display the product thumbnails in the panel, similar to Starterkit. However, the thumbnails don’t show up, it shows the :framed_picture: icon instead. The thumbnails render nicely on the front-end.

Thats an odd one. Since your thumbs are ok on the front end, seems like the generation went ok. Guessing it not a server issue.

I dont suppose you have an ad blocker installed in your browser? You may have hit a common advert size by pure fluke, and the blocker could be hiding them.

There is no page.thumbnail, should be something like

query: page.image.findBy("name", "cover")

or

query: page.image # get the first image, that's the default anyway

unless you have defined a thumbnail page method somewhere.

query: page.image Works like a charm. Thanks a lot!

I change to query: page.image as @texnixe suggested and it works nicely

Smashing :slight_smile: You can actually take that line out completely, since query: page.image is the default, and does not require being explicitly set.

I am maybe missing something but custom thumbnail does not work for me:

sections/film.yml

type: pages
headline: Films
info: "{{ page.date.toDate('d.m.Y') }}"
template: film
empty: No content yet
sortBy: date desc
image: page.image.findBy("name", "cover")

page/film.yml

title: Film
num: '{{ page.date.toDate("Ymd") }}'

status:
  draft:
    label: Draft
    text: The article is still in draft mode. It can only be seen by editors with panel access.
  listed:
    label: Published
    text: The article is online and listed in the blog

columns:
  main:
    width: 2/3
    fields:
      cover: # <-- this field should be used for thumbnail
        label: Image de couverture
        type: files
        layout: cards
        template: image
        info: "{{ file.dimensions }}"
        image:
          ratio: 16/9
          cover: true
        max: 1
        size: large
        ...

This is not working also :

    image:
        query: page.image.findBy("name","cover")

    image:
        query: '{{ page.image.findBy("name","cover") }}'

No image option and image: page.image is working, but takes the first image in the files panel.

I am using the Kirby Plainkit, so I tried to add the blueprints/files/image.yml and replace the image but this does not work too.

Thanks for your help !

Should be page.cover.toFile() I think.

Thanks ! page.cover.toFile() works.
Just to understand what I was doing wrong, why does this work and page.image.findBy("name","cover") taken from the doc doesn’t ?

Thanks

The code in the docs doesn’t make sense.

11

Ok thanks, I think there is a misunderstanding between page.image that is working and page.image.findBy(...) that is not, I thought .findBy() was a kind of filter for all images in the page…

12

Yes, findBy() can be used with a collection, not with a single object.

Wrong image is being displayed in the cover image option, how can i fix this issue? here is the image query in the blueprint:
page.images.template(“cover”).first
