    I’m building my 1st Modx site trying to help an animal rescue place. I am trying to use TVs and Ditto to allow volunteers to post new arrivals info; (Breed, Description, Condition, Urgent need –Yes/No, ID Num, Breed Num) on a New Dog page. 12 Breeds will be involved.

    How would I use Ditto to have the postings appear on the specific breed (1 – 12) pages? Can that be done?

    I could use some specifics or, a better strategy to achieve their need. Thanks very much..

      Hi roofoo,

      welcome to MODx smiley

      you could use Ditto with tagging ... setup 12 available tags to choose from, and the TagCloud Snippet http://modxcms.com/extras/package/473 to filter

      depending on the number of animals, you could organize your ressources in folders ( e.g. male/female )

        Thanks for the input. I am new at this craft.. I looked at the link you recommended. Seems a bit beyond understanding/or current capabilities.
        I must to display all 12 breeds in a menu, that when clicked would take you to the breed’s page, which would display all the details of that breed currently in care.
        I am wondering if it would be better to have 12 breed specific pages for the volunteer to input the info, or if it’s possible to have a single input page that could
        then some how distribute the info to the appropriate breed’s display page.

        I can’t seem to get my TV’s to allow multiple entries on a pages, so maybe I should have the volunteers to just enter each new dog’s info in the main ’content’ area.
        I was just hoping for a form-like thing that could stream line the process. Thanks again.
