This Contao extension add a new field to assign image files for each page. Using these images, the Page Image front end module can:
- output the image as page content (e.g. as a header banner)
- generate CSS to apply the image as a background to
<body>or an element.
Note: In version 4, the two separate front end modules have been merged and the change from image to CSS happens through custom front end templates!
-
Multiple images per page
If more than one image is assigned to a page, the front end module can decide which n-th image should be shown. This means you can (for example) have a header and footer image per page. Make sure to correctly order them in the page configuration. -
Inherit images from parent page
If the current page has no image assigned, images from the parent page can optionally be inherited to all child pages. -
Support for responsive images
In both themod_pageimageormod_pageimage_backgroundtemplates, Page Image fully supports Contao's responsive image settings (using<picture>or@mediaquery respectively). -
NEW: metadata support
Version 4 adds support for file metadata. Same as with content elements, metadata can be defined in the file manager and can be selectively overridden in the page configuration.
