Can't display MIGX images from within another MIGX TV

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a MIGX TV that has another MIGX TV as one of its fields.

Currently, there's Event-Artists which has four fields; three are text, while the fourth has an "inputTV" property of MIGX-Images.

Event-Artists is configured as follows:

Form Tabs

[
  {
    "caption":"Artist Info",
    "fields":[
      {
        "field":"name",
        "caption":"Name"
      },
      {
        "field":"url",
        "caption":"URL",
        "inputTVtype":"url"
      },
      {
        "field":"description",
        "caption":"Description",
        "inputTVtype":"richtext"
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    "caption":"Artist Media",
    "fields":[
      {
        "field":"media",
        "caption":"Add Media",
        "inputTV":"MIGX-Images"
      }
    ]
  }
]

Grid Columns

[
  {
    "header":"Gnrl Media",
    "width":"160",
    "sortable":"true",
    "dataIndex":"gnrl_media",
    "renderer":"this.renderImage"
  }
]

I call the TV using the following:

[[!getImageList?
  &tvname=`Event-Artists`
  &tpl=`Event-Artists-Tpl`]]

Then, in Event-Artists-Tpl, I have the following:

<li>
    <h4>[[+name]]</h4>
        [[+url:notempty=`<a href="[[+url]]" target="_blank">[[+url]]</a>`]]
        [[getImageList?
          &value=`media`
          &tpl=`Event-Artist-Image-Tpl`
        ]]
        [[+description]]
</li>

The issue I have is that nothing is outputting for the getImageList call above. I tried substituting the entire call for "[[+media]]", which outputs what looks like a JSON string. I'm at a complete loss, could anyone throw me a line?

Thanks for the reply - I tried that, but with no noticeable difference.

I case it helps with diagnosis, the settings for MIGX-Images are:

Form Tabs

[
  {
    "caption":"Gnrl Media",
    "fields":[
      {
        "field":"gnrl_media",
        "caption":"General Media",
        "inputTVtype":"image"
      }
    ]
  }
]

Grid Columns

[
  {
    "header":"Gnrl Media",
    "width":"160",
    "sortable":"true",
    "dataIndex":"gnrl_media",
    "renderer":"this.renderImage"
  }
]

And Event-Artist-Image-Tpl just contains

[[+gnrl_media]]

definitly this should work:

        [[getImageList?
          &value=`[[+media]]`
          &tpl=`Event-Artist-Image-Tpl`
        ]]

what do you get just with

[[+media]]

please post the json-strings, which you get

[[+media]] alone generates the following:

<img src="[{" migx_id":"1","gnrl_media":"images="" outlet="" event1="" artist="" one="" 6.2.jpg"}]"="" alt="">

Thought it was odd that it was formatting as an img tag - then realised that the TV output was set to image.
Changing it to default seems to have sorted the issue. [ed. note: chr.s last edited this post 12 years, 5 months ago.]

yeah, output-type 'image' with a json-string as the src isn't that good for a getImageList - value
