Did you check that the [+parent+] placeholder has a value ?
I guess you did...

Maybe try GetField 1.3 beta ?

Yes I had, I even hardcoded the value for testing purposes and it still did not work.

I decided to take a different approach for what I intended using MaxiGallery, still I am using GetField for many other purposes in the page. Greatly appreciate your help.

thanks for a great snippet!

is there any problem calling getField more than once on same page in 2 different ditto calls?

I’m trying to get an image from a tv, this one pulls the image correctly:

 <a href="[~[+id+]~]" > <img src="[!GetField? &docid=`[+id+]` &field=`camera-image-small`!]" alt="[+title+]-image" width="120" height="120" border="0"/></a>

however if I try the same code in another chunk on the page the image is not passed, i see the block and alt but the image properties url is:

http://www.domain.com/[!GetField?%20&docid=%6017%60%20&field=%60camera-image-small%60!]

anyone have an idea what I’m doing wrong?

but when this is ditto why not use the tv directly insite the ditto template like this:

<a href="[~[+id+]~]" > <img src="[+camera-image-small+]" alt="[+title+]-image" width="120" height="120" border="0"/></a>

Hello,

I’m trying to do a similar thing. Retrieving and showing the content of a TV (blogContent) called form wich is in "RichText". I call it with :

<div>[+blogContent+]</div>

inside a Chunck. But it import the all TV. Form and content...

But I only want the content. How do I do that ? That’s something I don’t understand. I’ve tried with the GetField plugin, but no more luck...

Solved :

Arrrgh! The solution was to put the TV’s "widget" as a "HTML Entities", before it was of the type "RichText"...

Method 1:Would it be possible to parse the TV fields inside a field. We could set a parameter that says &parseTVs=’1’.

[[GetField? &docid=`1` &field=`content` &parseTVs=`1` ]]

Method 2:We could even make it only parse the TVs that are menttioned in the call such as:

[[GetField? &docid=`1` &field=`content` &parseTVs=`1` &TVs=`product_price,page_title,summary` ]]

With method 2, the code wouldnt have to search for all TVs, it would only have to replace the ones mentioned.

I can’t get this snippet to work at all. I created a snippet, and copied the .inc.php to
/assets/snippets/getfield/getfield.inc.php

But when I call it, it returns nothing. I don’t even know how to troubleshoot it.

Calling it with
[tt][!GetField? &parent=`1`!][/tt]

Also tried
[tt][[GetField? &parent=`1`]][/tt]

How do I solve this?

I’m using 0.9.6.1 and getting the following error:

« MODx Parse Error »
MODx encountered the following error while attempting to parse the requested resource:
« PHP Parse Error »

PHP error debug
Error: Unknown(assets/snippets/getfield/getfield.inc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory
Error type/ Nr.: Warning - 2
File: e:\inetpub\vs108110\manager\includes\document.parser.class.inc.php(769) : eval()’d code
Line: 59

I’ve checked the path and all is ok.

Mostly harmless.
