More of a can it be done question

Hey Guys,

I have recently undergone a project to update our company website which currently uses Modx.
I have started work on a snippet which displays keywords from all of our blog posts, so far so good.

What I need to know as I can’t quite figure a way as yet is if I can pass url variables and a second snippet then grabs those variables and displays the relevant data. I tried the @CODE and @EVAL option to allow me to use the $_GET function but to no avail.

I am not exactly an expert in PHP either so I am just wondering if it’s possible before I hit my head on the table 1 last time.

Thanks guys,

I look forward to your reply
Jon

I believe that AjaxSearch can do this, keywords and all; check http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/AjaxSearch.

I just read up on this, and I am not sure I will be able to use this as it needs to return certain results based on an SQL query I have in place. It’s searching all blog post content relevant to a keyword passed across in a variable in the URL. This is what I need to do.

Whether I can that is another matter

Thank you for the quick reply.

Hi Susan,

This is what I am trying to do and then grab that "pic" variable within a snippet?

Is that using the AjaxSearch by any chance?

No problems guys, I have managed to solve this myself by assigning the url variable to a TV and calling the relevant TV information on the page that I am currently on.

Thanks for your help Susan.
