Add Taxonomy Image to Panels3! Term context like term description

Martijn, I do not have Panels, so I have no way implementing this. Nor do I have the time to learn Panels.

Views support is already there.

I may work on Panels support in 6.x, but, I am sorry, I'm not going to invest that effort for 5.x. If someone wishes to submit a patch, I will consider it.

Well, I've been asked to work on a new site where Panels may help, so I may have to learn it.

The site I am working on is Panels 2 - I do not have any test sites with Panels 3. Why is it not working? Are there error messages?

Frankly, I think that's hogwash, but I will look into it.

As for going to Panels 3 on that site: Given that it is a 5.x site and very heavily used, it is unlikely that such an update will be considered soon.

The instructions are fine - as an overview. But I haven't the foggiest idea how to actually do something with them given that I do not use Panels as a developer. And I fail to see why Panels has a need to make a core feature so difficult. If a term is displayed, it should get overridden by TI period. Why on earth should a taxonomy term all of a sudden become a "content type?"

He's not talking about CCK content types. In the panels interface, "content" is the tab where you add content areas to your panel. Modules need to provide content to panels to show up in the list of types of panels content.

This is very easy to do with things as they are, though, by creating a simple view with a panels pane display, that takes its argument from the panel.

I still do not use Panels, and don't see that changing any time soon.

OK - thanks!

Let's leave this open in case someone has a patch. Just because I don't use it doesn't there aren't others who do.

Here is the php code of the taxonomy image Panels 3 plugin, my module name which registers this plugin was 'site_helper',
so in 'site_helper.module' I have:

function site_helper_ctools_plugin_directory($module, $plugin) {
  if ($module == 'ctools' && !empty($plugin)) {
    return "plugins/$plugin";
  }
}

and in /plugins/content_types folder (inside 'site_helper' module folder) put 'taxonomy_image.inc' - attached (don't forget to rename .txt to .inc).

taxonomy image module maintainer should replace all 'site_helper' entries to 'taxonomy_image', obviously.

Thanks restyler, it works great!

Went ahead and made the necessary changes and rolled this into a patch for the 6.x-1.x-dev version of Taxonomy Image module.

Thanks to both of you. I'm still not a big fan of Panels, but, thanks to my last gig, at least I know how to use it now.

So, what I made was:

Took taxonomy_image.txt and renamed it to taxonomy_image.inc. This file I put into ctools/plugins/content_types/taxonomy_image. I opened the file and changed all site_helper into taxonomy_image. I added the patch to Taxonomy Image 6.x-1.x-dev...

Now the taxonomy image is shown in the panels backend... but doesn't load in the taxonomy-term-page where it is enabled?

Any clues? Did I something wrong?

EDIT: What I am trying to do is to insert the taxonomy image pane into a taxonomy/term/%term panel override... so that dynamically the taxonomy image for the actual term listing is shown...
