Hi list.
I'm wondering what my options are as far as modules goes when it comes to
"inline attaching" (in lack of a better word) images to nodes?
Basicly, my drupal site has an article section, and authors may wish to display
images or illustrations about any given subject in the article.
I've looked at image.upload and upload.module, the later was quite clunky
because users couldn't easily add an image to an article they're writing on.
The first one (image.module) I couldn't really get my head wrapped around. It
seems more to want to be an image gallery than the purpose I have in mind.
So, my question is, is there another module, or way, somewhere that works as
intended or will I have to code something up myself? It would seem like my
problem could be a common one for the same typ of drupal sites as mine, so any
pointers or advice will be greatly appriciated!
image.module will work for what you're trying to accomplish, though it
will bring along a bunch of stuff you probably don't want. There's a lot
of work currently going on in this module to split it apart into more
usable components. Some of this will make it for 4.5, some will happen
afterwards, but still be counted as 4.5-ish.
If you can use htmlarea.module (a very nice way to edit nodes, BTW), it
has a nice integration with image.module that will debut with 4.5 (or
CVS if you feel like living on the edge ;-) ).
