# Helper methods

Voyager has several helper functions that are ready to use. Here you can find the list of available function that may speed up your development.

## Thumbnails URL

Voyager will generate thumbnails for Image field type when you specify the [additional field options](/1.0/core-concepts/bread-builder.md#additional-field-options).

After you have your thumbnails generated, you may want to display the thumbnails in your view or get the thumbnail URL. In order to do that you need to add `Resizable` traits to your model.

```php
use TCG\Voyager\Traits\Resizable;

class Post extends Model
{
    use Resizable;
}
```

Then you can call the thumbnail function in your view or anywhere you like.

```php
@foreach($posts as $post)
    <img src="{{Voyager::image($post->thumbnail('small'))}}" />
@endforeach
```

Or you can specify the optional image field name (attribute), default to `image`

```php
@foreach($posts as $post)
    <img src="{{Voyager::image($post->thumbnail('small', 'photo'))}}" />
@endforeach
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://voyager-docs.devdojo.com/1.0/core-concepts/helper-methods.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
