I've generated a map for field observations. We have attached photos for every registrations. I wanted the photos to show as thumbnails in the pop-up window, so I generated a column and copied the photo links there by hand. (Not very efficient, but I didn't find how to do it automatically.) The map with the thumbnails funcitioned well for some time and then the thumbnails suddenly disappeared. I made the whole copying process again and the same happened after a while. It seems that the photo links changed.

It is really annoying, specially in case of many photos. Is there a way to avoid this changing?

The best would be to get the links automatically in the atribute table and not changing over time.

Hi Renata,

We are working on improving the ability to show image attachments in pop ups, but it will take some time to implement this capability. For now, I'd suggest using this tool which automates the workflow that you were doing manually.
