A year ago I defined an administrator and an editor, but as administrator I have no ability to add a user. When I click "Users" I'm taken out of Perch admin to the homepage of the website. This was true both before and after my update to v2.8.14, so may have been true for the past year.
Which version did you update from?
v2.6.6. I am trying to resolve a problem re images and thought it might be caused by a user-permissions problem: I can upload an image to the admin editor or to the gallery, but I can't find a way to add it to a post, except by entering its url -- in that case, it shows in the editor preview but doesn't display on the website. Only text displays.
Do you have any redirects in place on the site that might also be affecting the
/perchfolder?Removed /user redirect and solved the add/configure user issue. Thank you. Privileges were all checked for administrator, so that is not the cause of images from assets not showing in the editor, or uploaded images not showing on the website.
I have 12 images in resources, but only 2 show in assets, none are available from the image icon of the editor. I reindexed assets but no change.
If you upload a new image, does that show up in Assets?
Yes, it is added, but not seen from the image icon in the editor; there's nothing there but image info, link and upload. The image is displayed if I enter its url from resouces (/perch/resources/image.jpg), but when I save the post, only the heading and a placeholder shows in the Perch region on the website.
When you say "the image icon in the editor" do you mean on a textarea? Assets is supported for image and file fields only at the moment.
Ok, that's fine; I can select an asset for an image field, and it is displayed on the website.
Any suggestions for how to include an image in an article?
Have you looked into Blocks at all?
More on the issue: If I use a structured image statement -- not a textarea -- an image drawn from Assets shows in admin but doesn't display on the site. My template code: <img src="<perch:content id="image" type="image" label="My image" /> alt="<perch:content id="alt" type=text" label="Alt text" />" />
All I see is an image placeholder. When I look at the url of the placeholder, it's "perch/resources/my-image.jpg alt=". The filenames look ok in resources. But each one has "alt=" at the end of the url when it comes out of the template. The template seems not to work in FF or Chrome. Any suggestions?
So the starting forward slash is missing from the path?
No, it's not...: https://www.princeglobal.com/perch/resources/gold-mapleleaf2.jpg%20alt=
Ok, just badly formed HTML.
Replace this:

Yes, agreed. Thanks much.
