MIGX - Uploading to wrong directory?

    Hi guys,

    I've been following this tutorial to a T:
    http://rtfm.modx.com/extras/revo/migx/migx.tutorials/migx.use-resource-specific-mediasource-and-multifile-uploader

    I've done it several times now with no luck. Everything is working fine when I go to upload an image using the TV it drops it in the root directory and not the 'assets/resourceimages' folder

    "[[migxResourceMediaPath? &pathTpl=`assets/resourceimages/{id}/` &createFolder=`1`]]"

    I've also tried creating the folder myself ensuring that the permissions are 777.

    Any ideas?

    Many thanks in advance!

            Info update:

            I've been plugging away at it with no luck. I've tried several different things such as specifically setting the path to just 'assets/resourcegroup' and can confirm via the file tree that it is looking in there and not the base path. However when uploading files they still get dropped into the root directory.

            The only thing I'm a little unclear of in the tutorial is this section when setting up the TV:

            Tab: Media Sources
            select the ResourceMediaPath - media source for your context (web by default)

            Do I need to create a Context (and if so what key?). All I have is:


            As you can I also tried to create my own context and set that too just to make sure - but nada.
