We’ve introduced a new enhancement to Linked Records that allows you to designate a “Cover Image” from any Files and Images or Lookup to Files and Images field—and display it across multiple formats. This update also lets you click on a record’s thumbnail to view all associated images in a convenient gallery.
Key Highlights
- Cover Image in Every Display
Choose a cover image for Linked Records in all supported display formats. - Clickable Thumbnails
When clicked, the cover image now opens a gallery so you can browse all files and images in the record. - Lookup Field Support
Images from Lookup fields can also be used and viewed in the same gallery experience.
How It Works
- Select a Cover Field
- Go to your Linked Record settings and open the Fields control.
- Choose a Files and Images field or a Lookup to Files and Images field to serve as the cover image in the Selected Fields configuration.
- Note that the Cover Image option is only displayed if a Files and Images field is available for selection.
- Switch Display Formats
- Change the Display Format (e.g., Card, Grid, List) and confirm the cover image appears correctly in each.
- Open the Gallery
- In any view where the Linked Record is displayed, click the cover image to open a gallery.
- Scroll through all images attached to that record, including those in Lookup fields.
We hope this update makes your Linked Records more visually engaging and improves your workflow efficiency. Enjoy the new cover image and gallery features!
