Subject: WEC_discussion EXT image support
Hey,

WEC discussion is a handy ext for small & medium website. I want to use it as news publish tool similar to what you done on www.webempoweredchurch.org/home. But I need to have image support. What I need to achieve is below:
1, The list view will have teaser text at left and a caption image at right.
2, The single view will have text body at left and 2 or 3 images at right.

I think add the feature to ext would be great. Can you point me to the right direction about how to achieve this please?

Blessings,
Rocky

Hi Rocky,

Currently, the Discussion Forum only supports one image being uploaded in the Post form. You could setup the template ##TEMPLATE_DISPLAYENTRY### (single view) and ###TEMPLATE_PAGE### (list view) to display the image in the format you you would like. Then you could add additional images for the single view in the RTE. However, depending on the placement of images, the additional images may show up in the list view.

I have had requests to add more images with optional captions to support blogs and news. I plan on adding this functionality, but it is 2-3 months away before I will get to this.

Thanks for sharing this need and let me know anything else you would like to see in this extension.
