[snippet] DropMenu. Modified for weblinks and regexp on keywords/TV.

Hi.

I’ve got this message before when trying to use it alongside the unmodified dropmenu. In fact, I’ve got this every time I attempt to use one version of a snippet on one page and another version on another page. Not sure why. They’re probably not synchronised (or whatever the alternative term is in php). Any ideas any one?

Ah, thats it... Two menus... One modified one not... sigh...

Personally, I think it’s a great addition to DropMenu, which needs a thorough going-over again anyway... several other bugs and requests on our trakcer for the next rev anyway.

Does this mean that these changes to DropMenu will be included in 0.9.2 ?

bump. See original post.

Maybe this will help--

Hello
I’m trying the modified DropMenu that seems very good but I have error (the one with the two version of snippet is ok)


I’ve the patched core file.
I have that call in my template for the principal menu
[tt] [[DropMenu2? &menuName=`TopMenu` &startDoc=`0` &levelLimit=`1` &topnavClass=`menu` &subnavClass=`sousmenu` &titleOfLinks=`longtitle`]][/tt]

and this in my siteplan page:

[tt][[DropMenu2? &showDescription=`1` &useCategoryFolders=`true` &showAllInMenu=`false`]][/tt]

and I have this error:


I hoppe I can use this cool snippet, and think it will be a good thing to implement it in future version of MODx.

So there’s a missing arguement to the makemap function. I do vaguely recall forgetting to update one of the makemap calls in the past, but I corrected it fairly quickly. Do you have the latest version of the code? - I’ve done a comparison with the version I use and the makemap calls all look fine.

Actually, I’ve update the original post to use the latest version I have.

Hello,
Thanks, for your answer, it works fine now, I’m trying to play with it.
Why don’t put it in the repository, in the forum it is hard to find something.
Perhaps you can give somes examples of use, I don’t understand the use of keywordRegexp.
(I know I ask a lot of things )

I haven’t added it to the repository because it’s a modification of someone elses snippet (which also require mods to the core code). I assumed that the repository was for new snippets rather than hacks.

Official MODx people... Should I put this in the repository?

Anyway, finger’s crossed the regexp stuff will be in the next version of modx.
