    Double checked my image TV and Input is set to 'image' and Output is set to 'image'
    I have a class applied to the image.
    And have another TV inserted as the Alt Tag.

      Stupid question: what or where is site_url?

      I looked in my system settings and there is site_start, site_name, etc. etc. but no site_url.

      Is that a given from when I installed MODx, or do I need to physically create a new system setting for site_url?

        Oh scratch that question. Just read in Bob's book that the site_url is not in system settings, but rather based on the url the user entered the site through.

          This commit from yesterday may address the issues: https://github.com/modxcms/revolution/commit/2d3b9b1447ce627ff3524974001236bbca6f9ec7

          I have not confirmed if the v2.2.12 dev builds announced yesterday (2/14/2014) include this, but I would assume so:

          Traditional: http://modx.s3.amazonaws.com/releases/2.2.12/modx-2.2.12-dev-20140214.zip
          Advanced: http://modx.s3.amazonaws.com/releases/2.2.12/modx-2.2.12-dev-20140214-advanced.zip

            Thanks Chrisandy. Either way it looks as though I must do an upgrade. Being midstream in development it makes me a bit anxious.

            Requirements for phpThumbsUP say PHP 5.3
            My server has PHP 5.2.8.

            Is that a make or break issue?

              I do have to circle back around to this. Is MODx being updated to work with phpThumbsUp or vice versa.

                What is the code surrounding your image?

                If the output of the TV is "image", then you would not want to wrap the phpthumgsup call with image tags, the alt tv or otherwise. If you change the output to "default", then make sure to wrap with image tags and you can use your class and the alt tv.

                I'd change the image TV output to default if you want to control it much.

                2.2.12 is released, go ahead and update. Make sure to flush sessions and log out all users (tools menu item), clear core/cache files, and then run the update.

                  Hi Frogabog: Thanks for responding. Long day today.

                  my output for the +image TV is default.

                  I may have to update, but that is such a tedious process for me on this server. I was hoping to at a minimum complete my site and then do an update, so at least I have a backup of a finished site in case anything goes south with the MODx update.

                  Supposedly this add-on worked on 2.2.10, the version I am on.

                  Could the fact that my server has PHP 5.2.8? Requirements say 5.3, but not sure whether there's any flexibility in that.

                  What about permissions for the cache folder? It's currently 755. Instructions said it needed to be writeable. Writeable by who. There are 3 listings. Owner. Group. Others. Owner has read write execute. Group and Others has read and execute.
                  Anxious about modifying permission beyond what should have been handled with the installation of the add-on out of fear of making the site a security risk.

                    I'd say that there's some reason it's not working on 2.2.10 and to go with the update. Updates don't usually go awry, but do take a back up just in case.

                    No ftp access, no control panel file manager... less than ideal for many, just perfect for some. haha

                    Maybe this will help with the ssh update process? sottwell.com/links/upgrade-modx.pdf‎

                    edit: I can't comment on the php version being an issue for phpthumbsup but I'd say in general, it should be ok. Can you get it updated at all?

                      Thanks for the link to Susan's SSH. I did make notes from my recent MODx update a few weeks back.

                      Not sure about update to 5.3, but I would have to have the tech team do it for me. Not my bag. As well, sometimes they are picky about what they will allow.

                      Anyhow...will see if the update helps and keep you posted. I might at least create a new bare template with a single, simple image TV and see if I can get it to work. At least that will tell me that it has something to do with my MIGx Orbit configuration.
