Syntax

<txp:image_url />

The image_url tag is a single or a container tag that Textpattern will replace with the URL of the current image in an images list, or the specific image if given an id or name.

If used as a container, it must be specified as an opening and closing pair of tags, like this:

<txp:image_url>
    …link contents…
</txp:image_url>

Attributes

Tag will accept the following attributes (case-sensitive) as well as the global attributes :

id="integer"
An id assigned at upload of an image to display. The IDs can be found on the Images panel.
Default: unset.
link="link type"
Whether to hyperlink the URL or not.
Values:
1: hyperlink the URL (if used as a single tag) or the container content.
0: don’t hyperlink the URL/container.
auto: only apply the hyperlink if the tag is used as a container.
Default: auto.
name="image name"
An image to display, given by its image name as shown on the Images panel. If both name and id are specified, the id takes precedence.
Default: unset.
thumbnail="boolean"
Display the link to the image’s thumbnail instead of the full size image.
Values: 0 (display the full size image) or 1 (display the thumbnail).
Default: 0.
