Media/Images

    I’m setting up a Game Schedule for a local cricket team and I’ve looked through the documentation and cannot find out what the Media Label and URL boxes are for. They would like images associated with the games displayed and thought perhaps that this area was for images, but I’m not so sure.

    Please could you enlighten me – I’ve not been able to find anything in the documentation or forum. Apologies, if I’ve simply missed it.

    Thank you

    Hi NFWRo,
    The media column currently allows you to display links to up to three news articles. There are examples on my development site. [Scroll down to the Cal schedule.]

    So for example you might enter:
    Media 1 Label: London Times Sports
    Media 1 URL: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/sport

    Hi Mark – thanks so much for getting back to me.
    I see, so ‘media’ here does not refer to media at all.

    Is there any way, or might there be in future, to attach an image to the game entry?

    Thanks and regards

    Well, media does refer to media, as in electronic and print media – newspapers, websites, magazines, videos, etc. You can certainly add a link to an image as well. You just can’t display the image on the table right now. I will add your idea of an displayable image to the next build list and mark this topic as resolved.

    Hi Mark
    My apologies, I worded my second sentence very badly there and did not mean to imply anything negative. I only meant that it didn’t mean media in the sense that WordPress uses the word which is what my client had understood. Of course you’re using it entirely correctly.

    I very much appreciate your help on this and thank you for adding the idea to your build list, I know that the person who is looking after the site concerned feels it would add real value.

    Thanks again

    No worries. If your client would like to play to get this done sooner, it probably could happen quickly. Depending on what their exact requirement is of course.
