If you wish to display an image from an article in the rotator, you need to specify in the module which image it is, and you will do that by marking it as the main article image. EasyDNNnews module has an in-built image management so it is very easy to upload images into articles, and the module will automatically adjust them and display them in articles. Whichever image you have uploaded into the article, you can mark it as the main article image. Main article image is not used only to display articles in the rotator it is also used as the introductory or first image in the article. Furthermore, main article image is used to create thumbnails displayed on the list of articles.

Available choices are None, Portal and Module. If None is selected, the rotator module will use no permissions at all. If Portal is selected, the rotator module will use permissions set up to be valid across the whole DNN portal for EasyDNNnews module. If Module is selected, you can choose between some of the EasyDNNnews module's instances on the portal whose permissions will be used. Enable clean-up for this instance If this option is selected, the scheduler will automatically clean up the images and thumbnails not used in the rotator anymore.
