Hi!
When we have an article with articles images using the econa article images plugin and duplicate this article the image URL in the duplicated article is pointing to the article id folder of the original (duplicated) image. When the original article is deleted the images stored in the econa articles folder are also deleted. As it should. But now the image URL from the second (duplicated) is pointing to a not existing image, because it was deleted.
Is this the intended behavior?
Maybe it would be better to duplicate the images to the ID folder of the duplicated article so the URL's are always link to the corresponding article ID folder?
A somewhat related question about this plugin: Do you know if there is a way to only activate the images tab (Joomla) for specific categories?
And also: It might be useful to use this plugin with different setting (for example the image sizes) for different article categories? Maybe someone would need different settings for for example news an blog? But that might be not that easy...
And finally: Maybe it would be helpful for site content managers to be able to upload just one image for both the intro image and the full image and the let Econa just resize that image to the needed sizes for intro en full and save the URL in t he database. Now a user needs to upload / select and scale two images. This might not be that bad, for it gives the user more control, but sometimes just uploading one image and use it for both intro and full is just what is needed and will make the process of adding images a bit faster. Just a thought.
I do have to say I still really like your Econa extensions 'functionality. We use it on almmost every site we create. Thanks!
