Image Collection
An overview of the image collection insight feature that collects and displays images from sub-page views, enhancing visual representation on records.
The image collection record insight pulls a collection of images based on a sub-page view and puts it front and center on the record. It's perfect for showing off group leaders (on the Group record) and family members (on the Contact record). But the sky's the limit, so get creative and share your ideas in the MinistryPlatform Community!
- The Platform comes pre-loaded with image collection insights so you can see all those smiling faces on day one!
- Contacts Page: Primary Household members
- Households Page: Current Household members
- Groups Page: Current Group Leaders
- The image collection is based on a sub-page view, so think strategically about where the images you want to to display are located (for example, the Participants tab) and build your view before configuring your insight.
- The image collection expands to display the number of images available based on the sub-page view. Note: The maximum size is 4x4, with a maximum of 16 images.
- Hover over the image to display the selected record expression.
- Click an image to open a View Record dialog box and provide an overview. The View Record button takes you to the relevant record.
