Hi folks,
I love using wrappers for image placement. I usually hard code an image URL into the wrapper, but I want to use a field that hosts the URL in SF… doesn’t seem to like it.
Any suggestions?
Try referencing the field with triple brackets:
{{{my_image_field__c}}}
I thought that was going to do it! but sadly… it did not. thank you for the idea though!
A few things could go wrong.
-
If the wrapper height is set to “fit to content” the image background will actually not provide any height, and the wrapper will be 0 pixels high. Set it to “fixed height”
-
Are you using the image background type? Can you post your configuration?
-
Are you sure the field is in a model availalbe on the page? Is there data available?
It could be so many things…
Rob,
Great points!
-
Yes wrapper is set to a custom height that absolutely is large enough for the content, no scroll on, etc.
-
Yes, image background type.
- Yes. Using the exact same field to populate an image component and its working fine.
More settings here:
What’s blowing my mind here, is that i can use the exact same field from the model to populate an image just fine. But inside this wrapper… it doesn’t work @Rob_Hatch
Yup. Its blowing my mind too.
If you use the developer tools to inspect the element where the image should be - is anything in the URL space? If there is an URL there - it may be that there is not really an image at that destination.
If no URL is there - it may be that your model is not actually returning the data. I have often fat-fingered the merge syntax (though I see nothing obviously wrong in your screenshots)
What happens if you add a text component into the wrapper connected tothe “Global_Brands” model with the following contents:
Image URL = {{Logo_URL__c}}
defying maybe all logic here @Rob_Hatch the text shows, and the URL shows and is clickable to the right location.
Ever get this working?
