    Try replacing with {event_image}{path}{/event_image}

    The famous M10o93H7pQ09L8X1t49cHY01Z5j4TT91fGfr string occurs when tags get cached by the template parser:

    Not quite sure why it’s happening here though; if you post the rest of your template it might reveal the problem.

    So I just figured this out.

    It turns out my syntax was wrong in using trying to display channel entries for a single category. I was using “category_id=” instead of “category=”

    So the problem appears to be that if there is no data to return then the template parser outputs the bogus string of “random” characters.

    Not sure if it’s a new bug or related to this one: https://support.ellislab.com/bugs/detail/17450, but that’s what helped me figure this out.

    Just seen your last post; you must be using event_image elsewhere hence the M10.. marker rather than M0. Try using tag pairs {event_image}{url}{/event_image} in both the locations you are using it. Also, as a matter of interest, do you have a cf called just {event} ?

    EDIT: glad you worked it out.

    Hello Jason Turcotte,

    It sounds like you have figured this out and are back in business!

    Let me know if there is anything else I can help with.

    Cheers,
