I'm having the same issue. I'm working with version 3.5.1 and my doctype has an ImageCropper. When I import the files, the image cropper field shows the crops, but without the file. The files don't get placed in the Media folder. Even if I place the files directly in the Media folder they don't get displayed or imported.
The XML of the field looks like this after the import:
Import Images for Image Cropper DataType
Hi Guys,
Can anyone tell me whether the CMS import would import images and map to an Image cropper field?
Because I have to import from a database where I have the image link.
Thank you.
Kind Regards.
Hi Simon,
Just import. The image cropper datatype will work. You don't need to set any additional options.
Best,
Richard
Hi Richard,
How should I map, because I am trying like this :
/Boats/image.jpg
but it is not working...
I tried even without / but not working.
I have the Boats folder in root and have that image.jpg in it.
Any help please?
Dear Richard,
I'm having the same issue. I'm working with version 3.5.1 and my doctype has an ImageCropper. When I import the files, the image cropper field shows the crops, but without the file.

The XML of the field looks like this after the import:
And if I create an item manually it looks like this:
So the field is missing "/media/" in the source and it would be nice if the files would be "moved" to the media folder during the import.
Thanks in advance for the reply.

p.s. A nice feature would be to specify a (sub)folder of "media" in which the images are being stored.
Hi Dave,
This issue is solved in release below. Since Image cropper is a normal upload field it never ends up in media library.

Hope this helps,

Thanks / Dank je wel!
It works now.
And about the subfolder request; I meant with a standard media selector.
