Hi guys,

I have a formit form and a post hook which sends out a few emails, sets a TV value and performs a redirect....

I am having an issue with the TV setting and redirect whereby - I cant get both to work, I can get it so that either one of theses processses works, but not working together...

Code is:

// Get parent page title
$parentObj1 = $modx->resource->getOne('Parent');
$parentpageid1 = $parentObj1->get('id');

$doc = $modx->getObject('modDocument',$parentpageid1);
$newValue = "YES";
$doc->setTVValue(30, $newValue);


// redirect
$url = $modx->makeUrl(12);
$modx->sendRedirect($url);
return true;

In the code example above, the redirect works, but the TV value is not set.. If I move the "return true;" to sit below the TV setting code, then that works, but the redirect doesn't... Any ideas on how to make it so that both work??

Easiest way to resolve this was to call both bits in 2 different hooks... works then! Odd!

I'd suggest this change. It will make the redirect more reliable:

$url = $modx->makeUrl(12, "", "", "full");
