Change thumbnail based on column value

Howdy We release a weekly newsletter where we need to indicate if a program is "on track", "at risk" or "critical". I'm trying to ease the level of effort for authors when creating a page as much...

By "thumbnail", do you mean "Banner Image URL" (see below) or an image on the page?

Interesting scenario.

Hey Norman Young

Sorry, I didnt get a notification here. The banner image URL..or to be more specific, whichever image is used as the thumbnail when a digest is created or news is aggregated in the "news" web part.

Hi guymeyer,

As far as I know there is no way to change the banner image URL based on a property status. I looked at Flow as an option but couldn't find the right actions to piece it together.

Have you considered using Page templates in SharePoint Online? You could have a page template per status.

I hope this helps.

  Yeah thats my plan B -- obviously its not ideal to maintain individual templates when we have 8 programs with three levels of status 🙂

    That does sound cumbersome.
    
    If status was the only attribute required in the banner image URL and program was a page property displayed using the "Page properties" web part it may not be too cumbersome.
    
    I hope this helps.
