Pascal France	Monday 06 October 2008 8:11:28 am Hi, I use eZ Publish 3.9.3 When I use the default image class to import some images, I get 2 aliases of it: large and reference. 1°/ Why do I get only these 2 alias while I don't use any override of image.ini and while the size of the original image is 3885x2565 ? I should also get small, medium and rss aliases. 2°/ Why don't I get alias if I create my own image class ? I haven't found any place in image.ini where to specify the name of a class which should be affected by the creation of aliases.Is it hard-coded somewhere ?

As all aliases are created at the time we upload an image with the online editor, I was amazed not seeing all aliases in the storage directory after uploading an image from an image dataype.

Hi,

I use eZ Publish 3.9.3

When I use the default image class to import some images, I get 2 aliases of it: large and reference.
1°/ Why do I get only these 2 alias while I don't use any override of image.ini and while the size of the original image is 3885x2565 ? I should also get small, medium and rss aliases.

2°/ Why don't I get alias if I create my own image class ? I haven't found any place in image.ini where to specify the name of a class which should be affected by the creation of aliases.Is it hard-coded somewhere ?

Hi Gaetano,

Thank you for your reply.

As all aliases are created at the time we upload an image with the online editor, I was amazed not seeing all aliases in the storage directory after uploading an image from an image dataype.

I just tested the on-the-fly image creation and, of course, it works perfectly.
