Does the `thumb` filter support adding watermarks to the generated thumbnails?

In daily website content operations, images, with their intuitiveness and appeal, have become an indispensable element in attracting users and enhancing the quality of content.Especially the thumbnail, as the 'facade' of the content, its display effect directly affects the user's willingness to click.At the same time, in order to protect the copyright of original content, adding watermarks to images has also become a routine operation for many operators.thumbCan the filter directly add watermarks to the generated thumbnails?

To understand this, we first need to clarifythumbThe positioning and function of the filter in AnQiCMS

thumbFilter: The 'viewfinder' of thumbnails

In AnQiCMS template design,thumbThe filter is a very practical tool that allows us to conveniently obtain the thumbnail address of the image.The core function is to generate or obtain a thumbnail URL with optimized size and suitable for display based on the thumbnail processing rules preset in the system background (such as size, cropping method, filling mode, etc.).

<img src="{{ item.Logo|thumb }}" alt="{{item.Title}}" />

Here, thumbThe filter acts like a 'viewfinder', it does not directly perform complex image processing (such as adding watermarks), but is responsible for providing a processed or pending thumbnail URL based on the existing configuration.It focuses on size and format adaptation to ensure that images can be loaded and displayed efficiently and beautifully on the front-end.

AnQiCMS watermark feature: The guardian of content protection

AnQiCMS is an enterprise-level content management system that fully considers the security and copyright protection of website content.In the highlights of the system functions, it explicitly mentions the item "anti-crawling and watermark management".This indicates that AnQiCMS is built-in with image watermarking functionality, which aims to help operators effectively prevent image piracy and plagiarism, protect the original content and image copyright of the website, thereby ensuring the exclusivity of digital assets.

This watermark feature is usually triggered automatically when uploading images or when the system is processing images.It is a system-level setting that, once configured and enabled in the background, all images that meet the rules (including generated thumbnails) will be automatically watermarked during generation.

thumbThe actual working method of filters and watermarks

So, let's combine these two and look at itthumbWhat role does the filter play in watermark processing?

Actually,thumbThe filter itself does not directly perform the operation of adding watermarks. Its workflow is as follows:

  1. After you upload an image to the AnQiCMS backend, if the watermark function is enabled and the image meets the watermark rules, the system will apply the watermark or generate thumbnails when storing the image or creating thumbnails.Automatically embed watermarks into images.
  2. Then, when you pass through the template{{ item.Logo|thumb }}When calling thumbnails,thumbThe filter will find or generate this image based on the size and processing method configured in the backgroundThumbnail with watermarkURL.
  3. Finally, the thumbnail displayed on your webpage is the one that has been properly handled by the AnQiCMS system and watermarked.

In short,thumbThe filter is an efficient display tool that shows the final image processed by other system functions (including watermark management).It ensures that the thumbnail you see on the front end is both the size set and carries the watermark you have configured, without needing to worry about adding the watermark process when calling the template.This greatly simplifies the template code, allowing content operators to focus more on the content itself rather than the tedious technical details.

In daily operation, you just need to set up the watermark rules in the AnQiCMS backend and then use it as usualthumbFilter it. The system will intelligently complete all the steps of image processing, ensuring that your thumbnail is both beautiful and safe.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Where is the watermark function of AnQiCMS specifically configured?

The watermark function of AnQi CMS is usually configured in the system settings or content settings module in the background.Although the document emphasizes the core advantage of "anti-crawling and watermark management", it does not provide a detailed navigation path.You can log in to the backend, try to find the options related to watermark under "Backend Settings" in "Content Settings" or "Function Management".Once the watermark rules are found and set, such as the watermark position, transparency, text or image watermark content, etc., the system will automatically add watermarks to the images that meet the conditions according to your settings.

2. Does the watermark added by AnQiCMS only apply to thumbnails or will it affect all uploaded images?

According to the description of AnQiCMS “Built-in anti-crawling interference code and image watermark function, protecting the copyright of original content and images”, the watermark function is usually system-level, and it will take effect on all images that meet the rules (including large images on article detail pages, product images, and all automatically generated thumbnails).The specific scope and rules can be fine-tuned on the watermark settings page, for example, whether to add watermarks only to images of specific sizes or under specific content models.

3. Can I set different watermark styles for different content models (such as articles, products) or different categories of images?

The document of AnQi CMS does not currently detail whether it supports setting different watermark styles for images of different content models or categories.In most cases, the built-in watermark function may provide a set of unified global watermark rules.If your website has such a refined need, it is recommended to pay attention to the follow-up version updates of AnQiCMS or consider whether it can be realized through secondary development.In the current version, in order to unify the brand image, a set of general watermark styles is usually adopted.
