Media module and wysiwyg inserts image link rather than rendered image

Question

I'm using wyswig and ckeditor with media module to insert images into the body field of a node.

Instead of displaying the image it displays a link to the image. Viewing source this is what is inserted:

<p><span class="file media-element file-default" data-file_info="%7B%22fid%22:%2213%22,%22view_mode%22:%22default%22,%22type%22:%22media%22%7D"><img alt="" class="file-icon" src="/modules/file/icons/image-x-generic.png" title="image/jpeg" /> <a href="http://dev.charm.ucsf.edu/sites/dev.charm.ucsf.edu/files/feature_MB2.jpg" type="image/jpeg; length=22001">feature_MB2.jpg</a></span></p>

I have "Convert Media tags to markup checked" and I am NOT limiting HTML tags. Any ideas why it's stripping out the "[" and "]"?

Thanks, Jon

Answer 1

You can fix this in the web admin GUI:

Configuration > Media > File Types > Image > Manage File Display > Check the "Image" box.

Answer 2

Not sure if you've found a solution by now, but I had the same issue and it turned out to be panels that was causing the problem. To solve this, I went to Page Manager > My Variant > Content. I then chose the piece of content that had the image in it and in the settings changed the formatter to 'Rendered File' and chose the view mode 'Large' (it had been 'Rendered File': 'Default', which displayed the link to the image rather than the image itself). I hope this helps!
