Summary
According to the docs, custom TVS can be fully triggered by a namespace an a prefedined directory structure:
https://docs.modx.com/revolution/2.x/making-sites-with-modx/customizing-content/template-variables/adding-a-custom-tv-type-modx-2.2
The new TV in fact does show up in the List of available TVs, but it is not displayed. Instead a fallback text tv will be shown.
Step to reproduce
Follow the steps shown in the docs.
Observed behavior
As described above. On top of that no error is logged for the missing files.
Expected behavior
The pathing plugin is not required.
Environment
Any current or older version of MODX.
