To do this, you will need to click on admin >> configure >> submit. From there find "HTML tags to allow" which allows you to include html tags that can be used in the summary.
Also, because these <img> tags can include a lot of text, you need to increase the number of characters allowed in the summary as well, or else the <img> tag will get cut off likely due to truncating. To do that, you must go to admin >> configure >> summary and find "Content truncate" to change for the allowed number of characters to show. Change it to something like 400 characters if you want to include some text as well other than the image, because sometimes these image tags can carry a lot of characters.
You must understand that by allowing these html tags, you will also allow ALL USERS the ability to use these tags as well when submitting stories. If it doesn't work, then perhaps try increasing the number of characters again to maybe 1000. If that doesn't work, then perhaps it's another tag to be imported for "link_content" instead? Play with it until you figure it out which tag needs to be imported as the "link_content". |
