5.7.4.2 Get thumbnail from page?

Permalink
The code changed for most blocks in 4-2 and I need a way to fetch the image block from one of my pages again.

Because it's an old site I would rather not reinvent the wheel as my client knows how to do things a certain way.

<div id="thumbnail">
      <?php
      if ($c->isEditMode()) {
        print '<br><br>';
        $a = new Area('Thumbnail Image');
        $a->display($c);
      }
      ?>
    </div>

This is the area on the site which I need to grab the thumbnail from and to achieve this my custom block used an image helper:

<div class="image-link">
                <a <?php if ($target != '') { ?> target="<?php echo $target ?>" <?php } ?> href="<?php echo $url ?>">
                    <?php
                    $ts = $page->getBlocks('Thumbnail Image');
                    if (is_object($ts[0])) {
                        $tsb = $ts[0]->getInstance();
                        $thumb = $tsb->getFileObject();
                        if ($thumb) {
                            $ih->outputThumbnail($thumb, 170, 80, $title);
                        }
                    }
                    ?>
                </a>
            </div>


Now apparently this has all changed and the thumbnail is an attribute. How would I get the thumbnail now?

I ended up fixing it like this:

<div class="image-link">
                <a <?php if ($target != '') { ?> target="<?php echo $target ?>" <?php } ?> href="<?php echo $url ?>">
                    <?php
                    foreach ($blocks as $block) {
                        if ($block->getBlockTypeHandle() == "image" && $block->getAreaHandle() == "Thumbnail Image") {
                            if (is_object($block)) {
                                $tsb = $block->getInstance();
                                $thumb = $tsb->getFileObject();
                                if ($thumb) {
                                    $ih->outputThumbnail($thumb, 170, 80);
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                    ?>
