Hi, i've tried use Collections for blog instead of Articles...

1) In "Collection views > Update view" I've "Add column" blog_image with renderer "Collections.renderer.image"
2) In System Settings I've updated key "collections.renderer_image_path" to "{assets_url}/blog/"
3) I created template variable "blogTV" for template "blog_template" which is editable in Collection

After add image to blogTV in new document (collection child) and save I don't know why image is not shown in new blog_image collection Column in manager. And on website is blog also without images.

Some reason, please?

Some additional info - for web solved thru blogTVurl which works in web context:

blog_list_chunk

<h1>[[+pagetitle]]</h1>
<p>
	[[+publishedon:strtotime:date=`%d.%m. %Y`]] | [[+introtext:notempty=`[[+introtext]]`]]
	<br>
	<img src="[[!getBlogTVurl? &idcko=`[[+id]]`]]" alt="">
	[[getValuez? &class=`modResource` &field=`content` &where=`{"id":[[+id]]}`]]
<p>

getBlogTVurl snippet

<?php
$page = $modx->getObject('modResource', $scriptProperties['idcko']);
return $page->getTVValue('blogTVurl');

but in manager are not thumbs in blog_image column in collections sad
