On my PittiVintage site I've added images to the testimonials. They appear within the testimonials themselves and at times in the sidebox. :huh:
I would like them to always appear in the sidebox, as well. Any idea why this may be occuring? I've just upgraded to testimonial_manager_1.4.3.2
thanks!
make sure you have the following line(s) of code near the top of the fileQuote:

PHP Code:if ($page_query_list[$i]['image'] != '') {
$content .= '<p class="testimonialImage">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $page_query_list[$i]['image'], $page_query_list[$i]['name'], TESTIMONIAL_IMAGE_WIDTH, TESTIMONIAL_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</p>';
}

To call the images (admin/configuration testimonial image directory) I've tried entering complete URL of the image file, as well.
Thanks
Just as a check - have you actually uploaded your graphics to images/testimonials?Quote:

Again, they have always appeared on the main testimonials page no matter the configuration.
Thanks
in admin -> configuration -> testimonials manager -> image directory (setting)Quote:

Hmmm... I don't see that file in the specified location. Neither in my over-rides file or the file that it would over-ride. There is the testimonials_manager.php. Here is that entire page:Quote:

Thats the right file and it looks like it is calling the things it should.Quote:
