Even if the file is a pdf? I only see the File preview option and the description says that it will show image thumbnail if selected file is an image. I'm using pdf files.

Hello

Because the fix had broken menu item editing,
please re-download and install :
github.com/FLEXIcontent/flexicontent-cck/tree/3.0.x-stable

Now about preview image for PDF,
- do you mean to allow selecting an image to be used instead of the "Preview" button ?
should it be same image for all files, or should it be different per file ?

I would like the pdf to generate a thumbnail/preview by itself without adding a picture everytime. That it would show for exemple the first page of the pdf, which has the cover with a picture.
