While developing a Joomla Template, i got stuck on this qeustion.
Every Joomla Module has a manifest. In that manifest you can set your Paramaters for your template with Field and Fieldset types. Is it possible to add a custom image in these sections? I tried CDATA for this but it doesn't work.
I've never tried this with a template, only a plugin and module, but I believe it's still the same concept.
Create a new folder in your template folder and name it "elements".
Then, in your template.xml file, find the <fieldset> that the parameter belongs to and add the following inside the tag:
addfieldpath="/modules/mod_social_slider/fields"
You now need to add a new parameter field like so:
<field name="image" type="custom" default="" label="" description="" />
Now, create a new PHP and place it inside your newly created "elements" folder and call it "custom.php". Then add the following code:
<?php
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
class JFormFieldCustom extends JFormField {
protected $type = 'Custom';
protected function getInput() {
return '<img src="' . JUri::root() . 'templates/your_template/images/image.jpg" alt="" />';
}
}
?>
Note that I haven't tested this so let me know if it works or not
