I was hoping that someone might catch something that I missed.
I created a new content type for OP called people_places based off of the article content type. I basically employed some of the same cck fields used the article type (author, main image, thumbnail, etc...), using the "existing" cck fields.
I then duplicated the node-article.tpl.php template file and renamed it, node-people_places.tpl.php. I flushed my cache. I even attempted to clear the theme registry (by going to the themes page and saving).
I want this new content type to mimic the article type, including how it displays images, etc...
When I view the actual people_places node content page, everything seems to appear like I expect it to, except the main image. I figured since I'm using the same cck field "field_main_image", it should display.
Does someone know why the main images is not showing up?
Thank you,
Joe
