Title: weblink screenshots [SOLVED]
Post by: BeckTek on March 16, 2008, 11:06:20
I can have the screenshot thumbnails for the weblinks show up...if I make a component menu item...but if I create a weblink - category table I cannot get the thumbnails to showup.  It only shows the default globe image.

Is there a way to make it work with the weblink category table ?

unpublish the thumbnail option from the main menu link and then publish it again.
Also check the folder permission.

I dont have the option to turn thumbnails on or off because I am not using the Weblink Component feature, my menu items only links to individual categories so it creates Weblink-Category Tables instead.

Not sure if I am allowed to post my website but here it is anyway.  www becktekonline .com

if you navigate to the Web Services / Portfolio section or go to Our Partners, you can see how I have it setup.  If there is another way of doing this please let me know.  This was the only way I could think of to use the weblinks but have multiple sections that are not linked together.

OK, there is a solution: Create menu link of type URL. If you are not sure how, first create link of type component – weblinks and publish it *(screenshots visible). Then go to frontend and navigate to desired category. Copy that URL and create new menu link of type URL. Paste there URL you copied just a moment ago. This will be your menu item, and you can unpublish your component – weblinks menu item.
