Hi all,

This is probably a simple one. I am working locally on a previously generated component. On the front-end part I know want to use an image in a view. This image is added via Javascript (as it is not always required and dependent on the data loaded).

I created a div with the source using the task 'file' of the component. However, this only seems to work when I am logged in to the back-end as well. When not logged in, it does not display the image and I assume this is because this controller (with the file task) is located at the back-end.
For sure I am missing something/forgot something to do.

Anybody any ideas?

Kind regards,
Misha

Misha, does it work if the backend logged-in profile is different from the frontend logged-in one? v...

I have not tried that. In my situation I was logged in to the back-end as an admin (in a different tab). In the front-end I was not logged in at all (so a guest). When I logged out from the back-end (or lost the session), the pictures no longer appear on the front-end. For sure a security thing as the file accessed (to generate the image) is in the administrator folder, so it redirects to the login screen.

Anybody any idea? For sure it must be something straightforward, but can't seem to find it...

In the indirect path you are using, remove the 'administrator' word.

That's it.
Indirect images paths can be called both from 'front' and from 'back'

How would I do that? I just have a JDom call? e.g. as below:
<?php
                echo JDom::_('html.fly.file', array(
                    'attrs' => array('center', 'fit', 'crop'),
                    'dataValue' => $this->item->scc_image,
                    'height' => 25,
                    'indirect' => true,
                    'root' => '[DIR_HSMCATEGORY_IMAGE]',
                    'width' => 25
                ));
            ?>

Is that called from front index.php or back ?

That's the question.
What is the returned url ?

This is called from the front-end from one of the views.

De code it generates is:
<div class="img-zone" style="width:30px;height:30px; overflow:hidden;display:inline-block;"><img width="25px" height="25px" src="/administrator/index.php?option=com_hsm&amp;task=file&amp;size=25x25&amp;attrs=center,fit,crop&amp;path=[DIR_HSMCATEGORY_IMAGE]icon_hs.png" style=""></div>

Is it called from a front view ?

See in JDom :

html.fly.file :
getIndirectUrl()

It is there the link is created.
'administrator' must diseapear from your path.

Ah that was it. You pointed me in the right direction. For some reason I forgot the 'indirect' => true in my JDom call!

Thanks!
