Adding Images to the folders

Question

Hello All,
Kindly let me know how I can attach an image to the Content Management folder and show the image along with the folder name on the portal? Do I have to use different UI?
Any Ideas or suggestion. I wanted the way just like http://service.sap.com homepage with images.
Regards,
Praveen

Hi Preveen,
the "Entrypoint Exlorer" layoutset came in SP2 with Patch5. I think you can create yourself such a layout set in KM configuration.
For this do the following:
1. Create a Collection Renderer: Configuration -> Content Management -> User Interface -> Settings -> Collection Renderer Settings -> New
Use the following settings (some parameters might not exist in your SP version):
Name                    EntrypointsCollectionGridRenderer
Description               The entrypoint categories renderer
Collection Renderer          CollectionGridRenderer
Breadcrumb Visibility Style     invisible
Width Adjustment Mode            standard
Height Adjustment Mode          compact
Number of Rows               5
Row Spacing               15
Number of Columns          3
Column Spacing               15
Column Spacing Mode          minimum
Property for Sorting          no_sorting
Vertical Alignment          standard
2. Create a Resource Renderer: Configuration -> Content Management -> User Interface -> Settings -> Resource Renderer Settings -> New
Use the following settings (some parameters might not exist in your SP version):
Name                    EntrypointsResourceRenderer
Description               Resource renderer for entrypoint categories
Resource Renderer          ResourceRenderer
Image Width               48
Image Height               48
Image Setting               replace
Primary Text Style          HEADER2
Secondary Text Style          LEGEND
Child Folders' Style          off
Visible Properties          rnd:image(alignLeft/[1-2;1]/contentLink/space-right=10),rnd:displayname([1;2]/alignLeft/alignTop/contentLink),description(useLinkData/alignLeft/alignTop)
Command Display               off
Resource Command Group          Not set
Folder Command Group          Not set
Link Command Group          Not set
3. Create a Resource Renderer: Configuration -> Content Management -> User Interface -> Settings -> Layout Set -> New
Use the following settings (some parameters might not exist in your SP version):
Name                    EntrypointsExplorer
Description               The entrypoint categories layout set
Enabled for presentation settings     YES
Layout Controller          SimpleLayoutController
Collection Renderer           EntrypointsCollectionGridRenderer
Resource Renderer           EntrypointsResourceRenderer
Commands for the details menu     Not set
Now, you should have an 'Entrypoints Explorer' LayoutSet to choose from, so you can follow my first post.
Best regards,
Robert
