MODX :: YAMS with AjaxSearch

Hi Folks,

I started to use YAMS for my MODx projects and like it very much! I managed all the "big issues" (Ditto, eForm) thanks to the documentation. However, what is missing is a description on how to setup AjaxSerach to operate correctly with YAMS.

I would use this thread to create a document for the RTFM section. Since I'm pretty new to YAMS I need some help. In addition I can do the translation into German if this is of interest.

Here is what I've accomplished so far:

According to the short description in "assets/modules/yams/snippets/ajaxsearch/yams.ajaxsearch.config.inc.php" I've changed the placeholders from

[+as.extract+]

[[YAMS? &get=`data` &from=`pagetitle` &docid=`[+as.id+]`]]

and added

require_once( $modx->config['base_path'] . 'assets/modules/yams/snippets/ajaxsearch/yams.ajaxsearch.config.inc.php' );

to the ajaxsearch config file.

My snippet call looks like this:

[!AjaxSearch? &ajaxSearch=`0` &landingPage=`39` &showResults=`0` &stripOutput=`asParseYAMS`!]

The snippet call on the landing page:

[!AjaxSearch? &stripOutput=`asParseYAMS` &ajaxSearch=`0` &showInputForm=`1` &showResults=`1` &tplResult=`AS_Result_tpl`!]

AS_Result_tpl:

<div class="[+as.resultClass+]">
  <a class="[+as.resultLinkClass+]" href="[+as.resultLink+]" title="[+as.longtitle+]">[[YAMS? &get=`data` &from=`pagetitle` &docid=`[+as.id+]`]]</a>
[+as.descriptionShow:is=`1`:then=`
  <span class="[+as.descriptionClass+]">[[YAMS? &get=`data` &from=`introtext` &docid=`[+as.id+]`]]</span>
`+]
[+as.extractShow:is=`1`:then=`
  <div class="[+as.extractClass+]"><p>[+as.extract+]</p></div>
`+]
[+as.breadcrumbsShow:is=`1`:then=`
  <span class="[+as.breadcrumbsClass+]">[+as.breadcrumbs+]</span>
`+]
</div>

Now the problem is when I'm searching for a language specific term e.g. "produkte" (german word for products" on the english page I get the results from the german text. I assume that has something to do with [+as.extract+] in the AS_Result_tpl.

Any ideas how to get this working? Or is there a howto that can help me to solve this on my own?

Cheers,
Boris
