Images can be pulled from your database (Dynamic Images) or uploaded (Static Images). Below are instructions for inserting images.
Inserting Dynamic Images
Dynamic Images are images that are contained in your data. For example, if you had a listing of real estate, each entry in your database might contain a thumbnail of the property and a larger picture. These images can be displayed in your profile by using the wildcard menu to insert the image.
- Open the layout Editor
- Select the Wildcard icon to open the wildcard window
- Select the field that you
contains the filename of an uploaded image
- When you select a field that has image data, there is a checkbox (shown below) that
asks you if you want to insert the wildcard as an image. Select this option and click OK to insert the image.
Figure 1. Inserting a Dynamic Image
After inserting a dynamic image, you will not see a preview of the image. In order to preview it, you need to save the page and then preview the published page. Dynamic Images will always show up as a broken image icon as shown below:

(no preview available)
You can insert dynamic images within the HTML by coding them like the following example:
 [picturefield]">
This will result in the image, for that record, showing on the published page.
Inserting Static Images
Static images are images you upload from your computer or reference from your website to show on your
published pages. Follow these steps to insert a static image.
- Select the Image Icon in the toolbar to open the Image Window
- If you want to show an image from your website, enter the URL and click OK
- To upload a new image or use an image previously uploaded, click Browse Server. Note: If you have a pop-up
blocker, you may need to hold down the CTRL key while clicking Browse Server
