A generic wrapper snippet for MODX Revolution 2.1+. getPage will returning paged results and navigation from snippets that return limitable collections, and optionally cache the results of unique page requests.The release fixes a bug with caching when getPage is used multiple times on a single page and caches the total value into the proper totalVar variable name.<ul>

The second bugfix release of renderResources 1.0 addresses PHP 8 compatibility.

renderResources&nbsp;is a general purpose snippet for rendering the complete output of a collection of Resources.

renderResources

Now supports MODX 2 and 3. Use FirstChildRedirect for section pages that you want to redirect to the first child.

This snippet redirects a page to its first child element based on menuindex, but is configurable.  &#91;Find the documentation here.&#93;(https://docs.modx.com/current/en/extras/firstchildredirect)
for more specific information on how to customize this snippet.

&#91;Please report bugs and feature requests on Github.&#93;(https://github.com/Mark-H/FirstChildRedirect)

Use FirstChildRedirect to redirect users to the first document in a folder (based on menuindex sort order, however configurable) when they access a folder document within MODX.If no children are found for the specified document, FirstChildRedirect will redirect users to the site start page, though this behavior can easily be modified by passing &amp;default to the snippet with either a page ID, or one of the following: site_start,site_unavailable_page,error_page,unauthorized_page.You can also use the &amp;sortBy (any resource field) or &amp;sortDir (asc or desc) parameters to specify what to sort on. Please note that it always takes the first resource. Documented at http://rtfm.modx.com/display/ADDON/FirstChildRedirect, and source kept on Github at https://github.com/Mark-H/FirstChildRedirect

This release of getResources improves PHP 8 support.

This release of getResources provides PHP 8 support and adds a sortby feature for resources to be sorted as listed.

This patch release fixes several bugs, including the dumping of properties to array if the output of a tpl Chunk is empty.

This release adds support for a tplWrapper, allowing you to more easily handle nested lists and other complex configurations where wrapping the output is required.

This release fixes some issues with Template Variables that use Media Sources, tpl precedence, and introduces some user contributed features:<ul><li>Customize the AND and OR delimiters for use in tvFilters</li><li>Custom conditional tpls</li></ul>

This release fixes some issues with tpl processing introduced in 1.4.1-pl for the factor-based tpls feature.In addition, it introduces two long-requested features:<ul><li>tvFilters now consider the TemplateVar default_text</li><li>tvFilters now support all standard SQL comparison operators</li></ul>

This release introduces factor-based tpl support. This will allow users to define tpl's for every nth item, with each item using the tpl defined for the greatest factor, enabling complex markup to be generated by getResources for things like column-based layouts.Also in this release is an important fix to the processTVList feature.

This release introduces a couple of new features:<ul><li>Adds new includeTVList and processTVList properties for including/processing a specific set of Template Variables by name. This greatly improves performance when selecting Resources with a large number of Template Variables assigned.</li><li>Adds new dbCacheFlag property (default to 0, i.e. do not cache) for controlling the caching of database result sets when cache_db is enabled in MODX. If you want to enable caching of getResources queries, you will need to set this to a positive integer value (1 = cache according to cache settings, &gt;1 = number of seconds to cache results).</li></ul>It also features significant improvements to multiple context handling:<ul><li>If no context property is specified, the contexts of ALL parents specified (ALL contexts if 0 is specified as a parent) will be searched to the specified depth</li><li>If no context property is specified, Resources will not be excluded based on the context they are in</li><li>If a context property is specified, all Resources will be limited to the specified contexts, regardless of the parents specified</li></ul>

This release fixes a few small bugs in the way the criteria is built for resources and tvFilters properties, as well as allows a 0-based idx property.

This release of getResources fixes a significant performance issue when the includeContent property is not set to true and solves several issues encountered when working with property sets. I've also introduced a new user contributed feature to set the output of each Resource to a separate placeholder, allow a JSON array as the sortby value for multiple column sorting capabilities, and provided native support for sorting TV values as an integer, decimal, or datetime value by using the SQL CAST() function.getResources 1.3.0 also supports the sqlsrv driver that is now supported by MODX Revolution 2.1+.

This is an initial release of getResources, a light-weight Ditto-alternative for MODx Revolution.
 
 
- Added in snippet properties.
- This version will only work in Revolution-2.0.0-beta5 or later.

getResources is a general-purpose listing and summarization snippet for MODx Revolution. It is NOT a replacement for Ditto, but rather an alternative component that can accomplish some of the things that the more specialized components do, i.e. Ditto, Wayfinder, Breadcrumbs; basically anything that output the properties for a list of Resources (formerly Documents in MODx Evolution).
