getResourcesTag behaves unexpectedly. Prints preformatted php

Hi guys.

I’ve trying to make a blog using the example documentation in the revo docs.
http://rtfm.modx.com/display/revolution20/Creating+a+Blog+in+MODx+Revolution

I’ve hit another roadbump.

I’ve adapted the code in the documentation.
I’m using a template that for my blog page. I expect it to print out my blog posts. I use this code:


Instead of displaying blog posts, it prints a snippet of php code, wrapped in <pre> tags.
My page looks like this:

What could be happening here?

It will do that if the "blogPostTemplate" chunk doesn’t exist. Make sure that chunk exists.

Do you mean the ’blogPostTemplate’ template?

I have this template.
I’ve checked to make sure the capitalisation and spelling of the template name matches whereever it appears.

The chunk that the tutorial directs you to make is the ’blogPost’ chunk, which I also have.

Then you need to use it in your getResourcesTag call:



not: &tpl=`blogPostTemplate`

Thanks Shaun.

I must have gotten that parameter wrong when I was modifying the call.
