When posting a new Snippet, plugin, TV,...

Hello everyone,


I would like to suggest that we add [Snippet], [TV], [Plugin] or [Module] before the subject of the post when posting a new snippet, tv, plugin or module respectively.

Good idea

Is there a central repository for snippets and plugins, or is this it? I just downloaded modx last week and am looking forward to using for a client project in the coming month, so will invariably have a few snippets to share.

That’s the next thing on the radar after teh imminent 3.3 release. Already making headway there.

Very nice - will you post the link here?

In terms of code style - do you prefer lots of small snippets or one longer snippet with variables (e.g. SnippetHTML, SnippetXML, SnippetCSV or Snippet?mode=0|1|2).

It really depends on what you’re trying to do... but your snippet names already sound intereseting!

Links will be posted here.

Anyone who has seen my snippets know I fall in the comprehensive one really long snippet category! Course, most of it is documentation... which I also provide [maybe] too much of. I can’t help it. I don’t want to brain parse stuff 6 months later when I need to revise.

Ryan’s right tho. I have snippets that are hundreds of lines long. And some that are 2 lines long. Just depends on what you need to accomplish. Thank heavens MODx is flexible enough to allow for either.

Speaking of documentation, how exactly do you do your nice comments Jared? Its alwasy so nice! What editing app do you use?
