Hi, I am trying to get the JA News Pro module to load images outside of Joomla articles. I am actually using jReviews which stores images in jos_content.images.

I know JA News Pro allows you to choose between Joomla core / K2 / Flexicontent for where the text and images comes from. From the helper files I can see there is a set of “adapter” files for each of the above and I have scoured the helper.php and jaimage.php and it seems the $image variable is the one carrying the path to the image. I can’t find where this variable is originally defined however so am having trouble building a work around.

It would be really helpful if someone can let me know where the $image variable is defined. As I am bit of a weekend warrior on all this, it would be great if someone could also suggest the code change needed to alter this image path.

Thanks.

Dear chinatrumpet,

Open the file modulesmod_janewsprohelpershelper.php ,Look for this snap of codes
[PHP] $regex = ‘#<s*img [^>]*srcs*=s*([“‘])(.*?)1#im’;

preg_match ( $regex, $row->introtext, $matches );
if (! count ( $matches ))
preg_match ( $regex, $row->fulltext, $matches );
$images = (count ( $matches )) ? $matches : array ();
$image = ”;
if (count ( $images ))
$image = trim ( $images [2] );[/PHP]

This snap code would search for img tag inside the article content,you can see the $image varible defined here
[PHP] $image = trim ( $images [2] );[/PHP]

2 users say Thank You to Sherlock for this useful post
