    Hi All,

    I have recently released a new site using Modx. Thanks to all that have replied to my posts with helpful tips. Everything has gone pretty well.

    The site is mainly to catalogue movies made on PC’s using the game IL2 Forgotten Battles. Pretty simple in itself.

      Nice site. Good clean design and easy to get around. I like it.

      Inquireing minds...
      Is the Movie Cloud using TagCloud?

      And is the star rating using the snippet from the repository as well (I can’t remember it’s name)?

      Is the upload feature in Submit Movie actually uploading or does it send it as an attachment (as per the default eForm method)?

        Something is happening here, but you don't know what it is.

        Thanks dev_cw.

        Yes the Movie Cloud is using TagcloudTV. I modified it to allow a breakpoint to produce the Top 10 lists on the right. I also added a couple of extra sort option on the shown results by number (both ASC and DESC).

        The stars are from StarRating also in the repository.

        The hardest thing I’ve found is getting it to look and work the same in both IE and FF. I updated ajaxSearch to the latest which helped although I had to get rid of an invisible box in IE under the Go button.

        The upload feature do use eForm and attaches the file in the email.

        I was hoping to get a snippet to allow users to submit their own info and have it held pending publication but I haven’t found one and had little time to write one myself sad.
