img src and href not showing up for thumbnails

I’m using the code to call the thumbnail version of one of the images and link through Pretty Photo to the full image. This is the code I have:

<?php

	$attachment_id = get_field('floorplan_image');
	$size = "thumbnail";
	$full_img = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $attachment_id, 'full' );
	$full_img = $full_img[0];

	echo '<figure><a href="'.$full_img.'" rel="prettyPhoto[pp_gal]">'.wp_get_attachment_image( $attachment_id, $size ).'</a></figure>';

	?>

And it’s returning this (an empty href and src):`<a rel=”prettyPhoto[pp_gal]” href=””>
<img src=””>
</a>`

I’ve tried uploading the image again, and I’ve tried switching it between Image Object, Image URL, and Image ID… nothing has worked.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi @abitofbrit

First thing is to test that your data is correct:

<?php 

$attachment_id = get_field('floorplan_image');

echo '<pre>';
	var_dump( $attachment_id );
echo '</pre>';
die;

?>

What do you get for that debugging?

When I test the data, I get:

<pre>string(93) "http://website.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2013/09/1b8821.jpg" </pre>

So it’s definitely recognizing the attachment id (I replaced the website URL with “website.com,” but the string it originally spit out is working.)

Hi @abitofbrit

It is clear that you have selected ‘Image URL’ as the return type. That is why you are getting a string back from the get_field function.

Your code uses a function called wp_get_attachment_image_src. This function expects to see an ID, not a URL. That is the issue.

You need to change the return type on the image field to fix the issue.
