contact photo in view error
August 19, 2014, 12:05:11 am
Hi,

I want to create a view with the contact photo and contact name. The image-url is pointing to a strange path "index.php?q=civicrm/contact/imagefile&photo=NOUR_2996a37189195566a40f3127e2b8e546.jpg"
When I want to access this path, it is broken...

the photo's are displaying correct in the contact page, the true path to the picture is "sites/default/files/civicrm/custom".

What can I do to fix this (I am not a coder)

regards

it works for us to use the rewrite option and insert <img src="[image_URL]">

but we did have an issue on sites when changes were made to where image files were stored in civi

which version of civi is yours?

does it affect all images or only 'old' ones - ie if you load up a new image does that work, or do old ones work, or neither?

The problem is, that there is the '&amp;' in stead of just '&', and I don't know how that get there...

We've just encountered this problem on a recent upgrade from 4.5.1 to 4.6.2. On 4.5.1, we had been using the workaround of inserting the [image_URL] token into the Rewrite field.

But now, [image_URL] no longer returns a URL, but a full img tag. The token "CiviCRM Contacts: Contact Image" as a token on Drupal 7/ Views 3, image style setting of "None (original image)," produces

Code: [Select]
<img title="" alt="" src="https://example.com/sites/example.com/files/example.com/civicrm/
contact/imagefile%3Fphoto%3DLogo360_70f5faefbd19be848df2687d1c501df2.jpg" typeof="foaf:Image">
which doesn't resolve to anything. The physical location of the file, from webroot, is

Code: [Select]
/sites/example.com/files/civicrm/custom/Logo360_70f5faefbd19be848df2687d1c501df2.jpg
Oddly, these images had been broken on the contact view page, but now display correctly, so it seems somewhere between 4.4 and 4.6, the image handling was fixed in one place but broken in another.
