SilverStripe Featured Image
===========================

[](#silverstripe-featured-image)

Adds generic featured image to defined DataObjects and adds some extra helper methods

Instalation
-----------

[](#instalation)

Install via composer:

```
composer require "dft/silverstripe-featuredimage"

```

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

First off you need to map the extension to the object you want to add featured images to. You can do this via YML config:

```
Path\To\My\Object:
    extensions:
        - DFT\SilverStripe\FeaturedImage\ObjectExtension

```

**NOTE** By default, this module adds a featured image to `SiteTree ` (if the CMS is installed).

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

By default this module adds a field `FeaturedImage` to the CMS for your extended objects. This module also adds some simple helper methods:

`Object::getFeaturedImagesFromHierachy()`: Get a list of images, first from the current object and any parents, grandparents, etc. If the object doesn't support hierachy, then only a list with one item is returned.

`Object::getFeaturedImagesFromDescendants()`: Get a list of images, first from the current object and any parents, grandparents, etc. If the object doesn't support hierachy, then only a list with one item is returned.

Blog Module
-----------

[](#blog-module)

If the blog module is installed, this module will copy featured image ID's into the new FeaturedImageID on `SiteTree`
