site_settings in twig when media outputs entity ID only

Open on Drupal.org →
Created on 26 July 2023, over 1 year ago

Problem/Motivation

When using site_settings in twig and the field is a media image, you only can access the entity ID. There is no render array available.

Steps to reproduce

Render an image in a twig file from site_settings with a media image field 'field_image'. 

{% for site_setting in site_settings.your_settings_group.your_setting_name %}
  {{ site_setting.field_image}}
{% endfor %}

Proposed resolution

Provide the render array for the media entity referenced.

    With the current Renderer, the easiest way to handle this is to use something like Twig Tweak to render the entity from the ID https://www.drupal.org/docs/contributed-modules/twig-tweak-2x/cheat-shee... →

    I suppose the bigger goal here is to actually use the Manage Display as a Renderer option rather than the minimal rendering currently done. That would also mean not auto-loading it into every template as we would add too much overhead. If we do that I would imagine it being a separate bigger issue, so I'll mark this as closed.

    Hope that helps!

    Indeed, it needs to be in the end using the manage Display (of the field) as a Renderer option.

    For now, I will resort to using twig tweak
    {{ drupal_entity('site_setting_entity', enitity_id) }}
