Page Comparison

Bedework has long allowed calendar managers to "attach" an image to an event by supplying an image URL.   Now events administrators may optionally upload an image to "attach" it to an event.  During image upload, thumbnail images are automatically generatedEvents administrators may associate images with events by either including a public image URL or by uploading an image. Two fields are available per event:  Image URL and Thumbnail URL.  Thumbnails are used in the "Upcoming" events listing.  The full image is used in the detailed event view.

The public image URL (and thumbnail URL) fields are part of the standard event form and can accept a URL to any image publicly available on the web. Image uploads, however, must be enabled explicitly for a calendar suite (see below) for the field to appear in the event form.  During image upload, thumbnail images are automatically generated.
