      I have no comment on this.

      I’m totally outdated with all the current progress happening in MODx community. I just found out about recursive parser, now this wonderful system for all our beloved MODx members. Two thumbs up to both garryn and Kylej.

      Btw kylej, sorry if I didn’t welcome you earlier. Glad to have you working on this wonderful system.

      Sincerely,

        Now that I see it though I am afraid that I think I’d prefer the chunks/snippets/etc. tags removed in general, as it just seems to clutter the useful information! I’d like to see them reflected on the detail page though I think. Maybe leave "core distribution" though as that’s a bit more "special".

        Ryan, Garry and I talked today, and feel we should leave the tags. The main reason why is that you can download the resources wherever the tags are listed. So if we remove the tags we could see many support requests from people wondering where to put the code, in a snippet, in a module??? As we all know people don’t always read instructions, so it might be wise to error on the side of more information for the display.

        I do think we need a minimum requirements/required version though as the next release will have some new snippets that take advantage of new API functions.

        I am going to look into adding this today.

        OK somthings I noticed when adding a snippet

        the [code tag does not work right when using long tags<br />[[stippetname]] tags are removed this is realy anoying cause how do I explain how to call a snippet? compare the info in the link above with the original treat.<br />http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,3687.0.html<br /><br />all [[snippetcalls]] are missing I can not use [!calls!] bacause it needs to be a [[ instate a [! call.<br />[/quote]<br /><br />Dimmy,<br /> Garry has found a bbcode class that looks like it will handle our needs better than the current setup. He is going to look into getting the class merged into the repository to better handle the bbcode. So hopefully we will have an update for this soon.<br /><br />[quote author=Djamoer link=topic=5260.msg38404#msg38404 date=1151328885]<br />Two thumbs up to both garryn and Kylej.<br /><br />Btw kylej, sorry if I didn’t welcome you earlier. Glad to have you working on this wonderful system.<br />[/quote]<br /><br />Thanks Wendy :)

                I have just looked at the new repository and on the main page, I noticed the last link in the "Most Downloaded" category is "Home".
                I think this is a mistake.

                The number of votes under the stars on the main page of one resource is over the green line. I don’t know if it is a "bug" or not. I use FF 1.5.0.4. See screenshot of the page of Ditto.

                  Thanks for pointing that out, I think it will go away once there are enough items to list there. Right now only 4 things have been added so it cannot list the full 5 items. so it should go away after another item is added.

                  Zi has already come up with a way to fix this and should be corrected when his redesign is applied to the site.

                    Is there any hold up to launching this? I think we can add the version compatibility / min requirement / dependencies after launch. I would like to see Zi’s layout revisions in there though.

                    Another thought on the star ratings... instead of listing the votes, perhaps we could change the color based on the number of votes. We’d need to define arbitrary ranges for ratings to indicate how much visual weight to add to a color choice. Just a thought though... Maybe we could have increasing transparency of the icons with the most opaque version being the "hot" or "heavily voted" items. Perhaps a range of under 25 votes, 25-50, and over 50?

                      I just finished adding in the version compatibility, so we should be able to have that working! You can see it working on the site now. The only thing I have left to do is add it to the listing pages so it can be filtered on.

                      The problem with doing this is that it uses css for setting which image to use. Since we are using 0.9.1 and regclientCss does not work we would need to make some changes to how the css is added to the page. Not saying it can’t be done, but it might take some time to get workign right. I have seen some of the changes zi has made and it looks pretty good with the votes on there, imo.

                      The only other thing, and I’m not sure this is a show stopper is the bbcode problems. Garry is going to give it a look tonight, hopefully it won’t take to much to fix wink

                      I agree though, I would like to see Zi’s design changes added before we go live.



                      Team, if anyone could get a few more items added in that would be great, I think it would be nice to have quite a few resources added before we go live.
