Notes

Default entity type icons

To replace a default entity icon/cover, simply place an image in views/default/<icon_type>/<entity_type>/<entity_subtype>.<ext>, where:

• ext is either svg, png, gif or jpg.
• icon_type is either cover or icon

Add a cropper as a form input

// in your form
echo elgg_view('input/cropper', array(
	'src' => 'http://example.com/uri/image.jpg',
	'ratio' => 16/9,
	'name' => 'crop_coords',
));

// in your action
$coords = get_input('crop_coords');

Add cropper to a file input

This will allow users to crop an image before uploading it to the server.

// in your form
echo elgg_view('input/file', array(
    'name' => 'avatar',
    'use_cropper' => true,
));

// in your action
$coords = get_input('crop_coords');

You can as well pass preset coordinates and images source.

// in your form
echo elgg_view('input/file', array(
	'name' => 'cover',
	'use_cropper' => array(
		'name' => 'cover_crop_coords',
		'ratio' => 16/9,
		'src' => '/uri/image.jpg', // previously uploaded file
		'x1' => 100,
		'y1' => 100,
		'x2' => 260,
		'y2' => 190,
	),
));

// in your action
$coords = get_input('cover_crop_coords');

In your action, be sure to use the same image source for cropping. If you passed master image source to the file input, you will need to implement the logic for both new file upload and master image, as cropping coordinates may change even without new file upload.

Displaying a cover image

echo elgg_view('output/cover', [
   'entity' => $entity,
]);

Adding cover image in layout header

echo elgg_view_layout('one_sidebar', [
   'entity' => $entity,
   'show_cover' => true,
   'title' => 'Page with cover',
   'content' => 'Page content',
]);
