I have a TV with output type of image - used widely across the site.

I'm trying to extract just the image path to use for open graph in the head section of my templates - anyone got an ideas as to how I would achieve this?

AFAIK this can't be archieved with default tools. You can write a simple utility snippet, say "rawValue":

$tv = $modx->getObject('modTemplateVar',array('name'=> 'youTVname'));
return $tv->getValue($modx->resource->get('id'));

and then invoke in your template:

[[rawValue]]

That is perfect thank you - fooled me at first due to caching issues but works perfectly now.
