Parameter	Description	Possible Values	Default Value	Example
actorid	The actor's I.D. number	Any valid actor I.D. number	none	actorid="123"
assign	Place the URL to the actor's photo in this variable	Any valid Smarty variable name without the leading dollar sign	photo	assign="myvar"
assign_prefix	Prefix this value to the variable's name	Any valid Smarty variable name without the leading dollar sign	none (Value of photo is used by itself)	assign_prefix="myprefix_"
display_on_assign	Output the image URL even if the assign parameter is used	1	None. (Does not output image URL)	display_on_assign=1

Output

• Without assign: the URL to the image; URL placed in $photo Smarty variable
• With assign: no output, URL placed in variable set by assign
• With assign and display_on_assign: the URL to the image; URL placed in variable set by assign

Short Example

Note: you need to create a symbolic link from the CARMA cms_actors/ directory to a web-accessible actors/ directory to use this template function.
Template Code

<img src="{carma_actor_photo_name actorid=123}"/>

HTML Code After Smarty Runs

<img src="/actors/actor123.jpg"/>

Long Example

The following example will produce the actor photo or "[no photo]" -- and doesn't require creating the symbolic link described above:

{carma_actor_photo_name actorid=123 assign="has_photo"} 
{if $has_photo}
   <img src="view_image.php?actorid={$actor.actorid}&width=600&height=800">
{else}
   [no photo]
{/if}

Notes

If you use the example values for $assign and $assign_prefix above, the final variable name will be, "$myprefix_myvar".
