    Hi all

    I would like to know the best practice to make a Member Listing like this

    in MODx. I know it could be done with TV’s and Documents. I still wonder if there is a better solution for such a directory.

    Thanks

      Documents and TVs would be good if your membership is few. If you have lots of members it would make more sense to have custom tables with custom output via snippets.

      This is quite similar to the way you would consider building a catalogue. Lots = Custom Tables+Output Snippet; Few = Documents+TVs+Ditto.
