Hi. I'm running CMS Made Simple 1.12. I'm using PHP 5.8.8, and MySQL 5.5.42. This is all working with Apache 2.2.29 running on CentOS release 6.6 (on a HostGator shared server).
As a bit of background I'm trying to get images working in my menu so I need a way to set the image I'll read out with $node->image. Since my goal is to get a menu structure that can be extended/changed by the client without my help, this needs to be through the content creation web-interface.
The issue is I can't find the place to set the image associated with the page, even though I remember having seen it. When I went back to look at an install I setup in a VM test server to try out CMS Made Simple, I found an identical page, except with "Thumbnail:" and "Image:" on the "Options" tab of the "Edit Content" page. I've included a screen shot showing the desired page(left) compared with the actual(right).
My question: How do I get the "Image:" dropdown to show up in the options page?
For a bit of additional information, this is what I know of differences between the two installs:
- They are running the same version of CMSMS (1.12), but the test server is running PHP 5.5.9, MySQL 5.5.44, and Apache 2.4.7 in Linux Mint 17 Qiana Xfce.
- When I did the initial install on the test server I accepted the demo site, could this have setup something I'm unaware of?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Adam

Re: "Thumbnail:" and "Image:" don't appear in "Edit Content"
Try going to the following settings:
Site Admin (menu section)
- Global Settings (page)
-- Content Editing Settings (tab)
There should be some fields to set the server path for where you want pages to find images and thumbs.

Re: "Thumbnail:" and "Image:" don't appear in "Edit Content"
I think I may have have found the issue. While I was trying Johnny's suggestion (thanks), I noticed another difference. The example pages install seems to have put an image (the CMS logo) into the "Image Manager", but in my second install (without the example pages) the "Image Manager" was empty. Once I put something in there the options appeared.
Partial Solution: There is no way to change the directory (from what I can tell those values have no effect), but if files are put in uploads/images then things work.
Remaining Question: Is there actually a way to change the directory where the image manager works?

I stopped using image manager years ago, I use file manager in CMSMS...
You may have a problem with your image/uploads path, look in your config.php to see if there is any set there...
Are these both a fresh install of the same version of CMSMS or..?
