I am just working on the editable regions of the slideshow in the portfolio-tutorial, where each image variable has to be declared manually like so:

Code: Select all

<cms:editable name='group_img1' label='First Image' desc='First Image' type='group' />
   
   <cms:editable
      name='image_1'
      label='Image 1'
      desc='Upload first image here'
      crop='1'
      width='600'
      height='300'
      group='group_img1'
      type='image'
   />
   
   <cms:editable
      name='thumb'
      label='Image Thumbnail'
      desc='Thumbnail of first image'
      width='223'
      height='112'
      show_preview='1'
      assoc_field='image_1'
      group='group_img1'
      type='thumbnail'
   />

   <cms:editable
      name='image_1_title'
      label='Image Title'
      desc='Enter image title here'
      group='group_img1'
      type='text'
   />

So for additonal images, I will have to repeat the above code, which works fine.

But what if the number of images in the slideshow is unknown?

Is there a way to write this a bit more DRY (not repeating the same code again for additional images) without limiting the final number of images?

For such cases, we can use 'Repeatable regions' - http://www.couchcms.com/docs/concepts/r ... gions.html

Hope it helps.

Perfect. Thanks.
