I have a problem, TV's of a site are not shown when using getResources or pdoResources with symlinks.

I have 3 contexts
- Site A
- Site B
- Data
In Data the client will add all resources with TV's to be shown across two sites.
This way he has to edit in one place, but can show the same details across more sites.

In context Site A and Site B he simply adds a symlink pointed to a resource in the Data context. This works great.
(The template used for this symlink resource does not have the same TV's as the data resource so this is not a issue)

The detail page works:
https://c0021.paas1.lon.modxcloud.com/stay-and-eat/stay/hotels/the-d-hotel.html

But the list view only shows the link and title no TV's...
https://c0021.paas1.lon.modxcloud.com/stay-and-eat/stay/hotels.html

Code:
```
[[!getResources?
&parents=`[[*id]]`
&where=`{"template":"8"}`
&depth=`10`
&tvPrefix=``
&tpl=`ListingTpl`
&includeTVs=`1`
&processTVs=`1`
&prepareTVs=`1`
]]
```
ListingTpl
```
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 col-md-4">
	<div class="thumbnail">
		[[ImagePlus?
			&docid=`[[+id]]`
			&tvname=`ListingImage` 
			&options=`w=520`
			&tpl=`ListingImgTpl`  
			&type=`tpl` 
		]]
		<div class="caption">
			<h3><a href="[[~[[+id]]]]">[[+longtitle:notempty=`[[+longtitle]]`:default=`[[+pagetitle]]`]]</a></h3>
			<address>[[+DetailsPlace]], [[+DetailsRegion]]<br>
				<a href="tel:+[[+DetailsPhone]]">+[[+DetailsPhone]]</a><br>
				<a href="[[+DetailsWebsite]]">[[+DetailsWebsite]]</a>
			</address>
			<a href="[[~[[+id]]]]" class="btn btn-primary">more</a>
		</div>
	</div>
</div>
```

Ok wow this works...

//Output Modifier: [[+tv.tv-name:getSymTV=`[[+id]],tv-name`]]
 
$options = explode(',',$options);
$symID = $options[0];
$tvName = $options[1];
 
if(is_numeric($symID) && !empty($tvName)){
  $resource = $modx->getObject('modResource', $symID);
  $content = $resource->getTVValue(''.$tvName.'');
 
  if($resource->get('class_key') == 'modSymLink') {
    $linkedID = $resource->get('content');
    $linkedresource = $modx->getObject('modResource', $linkedID);
    $content = $linkedresource->getTVValue(''.$tvName.'');
  }
}
 
return $content;
