Thus far, I have been utilizing Drupal Development Insert + WYSIWYG + CKEditor to insert photographs with particular Picture Types in a wysiwyg interface. This works nicely, and it’s extremely simple to pick out and apply picture types (together with colorbox variants) utilizing Insert.
I am at the moment testing Media (7.2x) + WYSIWYG + CKEditor in its place, and wish to make certain I perceive learn how to greatest use picture types on this context.
Primarily based on a terrific write-up right here (http://www.58bits.com/weblog/2013/03/06/how-to-add-captions-to-images-in-drupal), it appears to be like like a method to make use of Picture Types with Media is to do one thing like this:
- Create desired picture types to make use of in WYSIWYG editor
- Add view mode(s) as wanted to Drupal Development Picture file sort
- Set view mode(s) to make use of desired picture types below Handle File Show
- Select “Format” (view mode) when embedding Media
In the end, that is extra highly effective than Insert, since Drupal Development view modes can handle extra than simply Drupal Development picture (i.e. different fields like title, alt, and extra) nevertheless it’s a bit clunky. For one factor, you’d want so as to add a brand new view mode for every picture fashion that you simply wish to have entry to when embedding (?)
My query: is that this at the moment Drupal Development greatest approach to make use of picture types when embedding photographs utilizing Media (7.2x) + WYSIWYG + CKEditor?
