OK, so I have solved the undefined index problem - the view file was wrong, it should have been "Tip.image" instead of just image. However, I changed it to "Img.pic" so as not to clash with image.
I'm now getting the following error when trying to "add": Notice (8): Array to string conversion [APP\controllers\components \image.php, line 50] Warning (2): strrpos() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given [APP\controllers\components\image.php, line 145] I've done some searching, and I understand that the error means an array is being given as opposed to a string, but I didn't really come across a fix? Has anybody got any ideas? Thanks in advance!
