• improved image element. Now it allows :first as the image source, meaning the first (by name) image attached to current page (or a page currently listed when using ListPages module).

Very cool. But it doesn't seem to work when used with ListPages for me — is there a trick? (I just get no image.) That would be hugely useful for using wikidot as a blogging platform.

It works perfectly for us. Could you post a link to page that does not work with ListPages?

The [[image :first]] shows nothing if there is no image attached to a page.

There's a problem with the wiki syntax that documents :first for the image element:

Current source:

|| {{:first}} || {{:first]} || {{:first}} || displays first image attached to the current page (or nothing at all) ||

Has a broken closing double brace on the second ":first" and renders this:

:first

:first]}

{{:first

displays first image attached to the current page (or nothing at all)

Ahh, thanks Ed! The syntax really confused me — I didn't think to check the source code for errors. Good find!

example of it not working

Take a look at:

http://aperiodic.mattdm.org/recent

The code looks like this:

[[module ListPages order="dateCreatedDesc" limit="7" category="blog"  tags="-_draft, -_hideme"  separate="false" appendLine="----" rss="aperiodic" tagTarget="system:page-tags" ]]
[[include inc:displaypost]]
[[image :first]]
[[/module]]

You can see I added after the include statement¹ to display the contents of the page. This should cause each post's image to be duplicated, right? But it doesn't.

Footnotes

1. it also doesn't work if I inline the code from the include
