[MODX Revo] second longtitle#

hey there,

i use the longtitle for my headlines.
but my headline have two different colors. the html-code looks so:


so i need a new field in my document-overview (where the longtitle, description,... is.)

i don't wanna do this with a new tv in the template variable section. cause that is'n easy for a cutsomer to understand.

hope for some answers.

You mean you want another field for the coloured section of your headline?

Is there any rule for which word will be coloured? For example if it is always the last word (or 2 or 3...), you could write an output filter that wraps the last word in <span> tags automatically...

With custom forms you can set up any kind of fields you want in the resource editing page.

That is exactly, what I need.
I cant use the output-filter, 'cause there is no rule for which word or words will be coloured.

@sottwell
Is there no other way to do that? A little bit simple perhaps?!
I can't programming a own plugin for that... :s

I think a nice way to do it would be to just use the longtitle field, but have the user wrap the coloured part in asterisks (*). Then an output modifier would replace them with <span> tags when inserting into your page.

Create a snippet called spanwrap or something that makes more sense with the following (not tested):

Then in your template add the modifier to the longtitle tag:

And get your users to enter the longtitle text like this:
