You can now associate an image with each file or web page in your index. These images will be displayed alongside the links in your search results as shown below:

Zoom provides you with a number of ways to associate images with your search results. You can also customize the appearance of these images (in width/height or position on the search results page) to a great extent using the CSS classes available.

Enable images

To allow images to appear in your search results, you will first need to enable "Image" on the "Results Layout" tab of the Configuration window.

Once this is enabled, Zoom will be able to show images alongside your search results. However, you will still need to setup the association of images with your files before any images will appear. There are 3 different ways to associate an image with a page:

Associating an image with a particular page
Associating icon images with a file type
Associating thumbnail images with files
