Multiflex-3 MODx Port [Beta - 4]

I am trying to use Ditto on the way it is used in Multiflex but with a two column layout. I would like to use the rounded boxes created by Ryan Trash. http://modxcms.com/simple-rounded-corner-css-boxes.html
This is my Ditto call

Where the Roundedbox chunck contains this code:




My problem is that I don´t see how to get content in this box.The longtitle is in the header allright. But nothing in the box underneath. I write this here because I "copied" most of the page from the Multiflex CSS/Template.

Last question, could someone link me to a page where the Wayfinder stuff like &outerTpl=`m3_outerTplDL` &rowTpl=`m3_rowTplDT` &innerTpl=`m3_innerTplDD` &parentRowTpl=`m3_parentRowTplDT` &innerRowTpl=`m3_innerRowTplDD is explained. Getting bold scratching my head. Thanks.

For a description of those parameters in Wayfinder, check this site out:

What version of ditto are you using? If you are using v2.x, I imagine if you add th parameter:



That it will magically work

Hmmm,using 2.02, my point is that I am not really sure as to what part of the doc it should be pointing.
Meaning,under infoboxes in the multiflexporting you created,I just put text in the "Document Content" and that appears in the box(es) on the left. However after adding &extenders=`summary`, still nothing appearsin that box.
Must be missing some very basic understandig here. Thanks for your help and best, Frank.

It did work...great,now styling it all, thanks a lot

I just installed Beta 4.

I want my site to have the 2-column layout in the center column. Do I still need to make the changes to Ditto? It doesn’t look like it. What do I need to do to get the center 2-column layout?

I followed the instructions that started with "Now pages should be created like this" and ends with "Inside this page make a ditto call like this" but I’m not really sure if this is what I should be doing and where to put the ditto call exactly?

Thanks!

You should be able to compare the template that is used for the MODx Port, and the template for the 2-Column version you want, and end up with a working solution.

HI ALL,

I have some problems with the info boxes on the right side! I can see the blue infobox but not the web-login form.
Anybody allready solve this problem?
I didn’t changed ditto because I got v2.0.2

I hope somebody can help me!

cheers

hi, i was wondering...is it possible to use the side navigation menu AND the top navigation menu ? i uploaded my template and my side menu can be seen, but the top cannot. Also, the "sub-content " area/boxes disappeared as well.

thanks for any input.

This template is probably in need of major revisions since it heavily relies on Ditto which was changed from 1.x to 2.x since the template was authored. If I find sometime I will try to update the template, but to be honest, I will not likely update it until this ticket is closed:

http://mirror3.cvsdude.com/trac/ditto/codebase/ticket/18

That way it will no longer require a hack to Ditto core files and will not break the ease of upgrading your codebase.

Hi,
I’m using the latest version of MODx and Ditto and the instructions for modifying the Ditto source code don’t match with the latest code. I’d like to use different colored boxes on the right side bar as per this post.

Are there any updated instructions or an update to Ditto in the wind?

Also I’m unable to work out how to add content to the right side bar box’s and can’t get the login form to display. I’m just got the Title and empty content underneath.

I’m very new to MODx and trying to come to grips with how it works.

And Jesse, thanks for all of you hard work on porting the Multiflex-3 template to MODx and your support here on the forums. Great job.

Hi Jesse

I read the forum http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,9165.0.html on the tploverride and am curious to see if you tested this in depth?
I would like to give that a try but want to know if you think it is worth it as I see above that there are some problems with ditto and multiplex? Best,

Frank.
