    Hi All,

    OK so i am working locally on my MAC and using Revolution 2.4.3

    I have a blog home page that is listing all the blog post and subsequent information correctly. All good so far.

    I then wanted to have an image (similar to a featured image in wordpress) to the left of the blog post within the list. I have managed to get the paceholder there and set the sizes etc but the actual image is not showing. This is what I have done.

    1. Created a TV named BlogFeatureImage. Assigned it to the right templates that i am using.
    2. Modifed my CSS file to set the size of the thumbnail to my specific requirements. This all works well too.
    3. In the relevant blog post I have set the image by selecting the variable and selecting the image from the file structure.
    4. When I view the page I see only src in the developer tools. no result, not image name, nothing.

    I will try and upload some screenshots but this is my first post and I am an old guy in a new techy world so bare with me lol.

    My BlogArticleRowTpl is as follows. you can see I have the TV [[*BlogFeatureImage]] and this is where the issue is. I have tried * + .tv. etc etc but no change.

    <div class="container">
    <div class="row">


    <div class="media col-md-9">
    <figure class="pull-left">
    <a href="[[~[[+id]]]]">
    <img src="[[*BlogFeatureImage]]" class="blogThumb">
    </a>
    </figure>
    <div class="post">
