Ah, that post was written in a previous version of the forums, so it's formatting got garbled. Here's a fixed version:
I just saw this. It is possible to insert images into Custom Slides, but it's a bit of a workaround. Remember that custom slides get rendered as HTML pages, so technically they can do everything HTML can if you're willing to put in the work.
We added a Custom Formatting Tag (Settings -> Configure Formatting Tags). You can give it whatever name & description you like (we named ours img
). The Start HTML part is <img src="file:///C:/Users/NCF-AV/Documents/OpenLP/Images/
and the End HTML is "/>
To insert the image, we use something like {img}picture-name.jpg{/img}
in the Custom Slide.
Note: This is just a basic HTML command to insert an image with quotes put around the path name. We put all our OpenLP images in one folder, so the above works for us. Your path is guaranteed to be different, so make sure to change it. You don't have to put the full path in the custom tag, but if you don't you'll have to specify the path in the Custom Slide itself.
Cheers!
