Hi community, i'am not a pro in module creation and i need someone, who build it better. What my stuff at this time does: there is a page "Standard". This Page can upload into OR select Images from "Image Library". The pages inside "Image Library" are simple pages with a imageField (single) inside. The page "Standard" looks like this: "Select existing Images" ist a pageField. The Inputfield is a AutocompleteField with preview oh the selected pages (from "Image Library"). "Image (add if not exists)" is a imageField (multiple) this two fields togehter and some hooks are the core of my project. select a image form the list, or upload a new one. The Module has to parts: The new Autocomplete Inputfield for FieldtypePage and a processing for the imagefield via hooks. Lets start with the ImageField: Upload a Image(s) like everytime in Processwire. After hit "Save": a "Page:saved" hook is checking if the image is already in the Library is checking the basename. if basename already exists, the code compares the two images by pixelanalysis(!) if in Library already: then add the existing Page with this image to the PageField field if not: create a new page with template "Image", add the image there, and add the new page to PageField after all: remove the image from this page (because we linked the image via a page) The pageField is a clone of the existing InputfieldPageAutocomplete, but i extended that with little new function: display images in ___rendeListItem() and the javascript-version after AJAX loading. In my module, you can use as a new label specific string img:{a_image_field.url}:img. This pageField automatically controls the imageField. The selected Parent and Template is the path for new Pages and there Templates. I'am testing a lot with this new components. Works fine. I Like this solution for pages where many images are allways the same (like a product-catalog). Download the zip and have a look. Installation Follow this steps: Install module "InputfieldPageAutocomplete2" install module "ImageUploadOrSelect" create a Template "Image" now we need a unique name for three fields. For example: "loremipsum". create a field of type image, call it "imageuploadorselect_imagetarget_loremipsum". this field is single image field. no array output! add the field "imageuploadorselect_imagetarget_loremipsum" to template "Image". create a field of type image, call it "imageuploadorselect_imagestemporary_loremipsum". this field is multiple. array output! add this field to a template you decide. For example "basic-page". create a new field of type Page, call it "imageuploadorselect_pages_loremipsum". set up this field like in the image above. Parent: a page you decide (where pages with template "Image" will be created) Template: Image Labelfield: custom Custom page label format: {title} img:{imageuploadorselect_imagetarget_loremipsum.url}:img Inputfieldtype: "PageAutocomplete2". add this field to template from step 8, where the imageField also is. I would be very happy if someone could help. How i sad before, i'am not the pro. I looking for somebody who could help me to merge this stuff in one module to share it in the community. I commented all the things in the files. There are a lot of detailed information. Have nice weekend! modules.zip
