    Hello friends, I’m pretty new in MODx and now I have one problem.
    On my site I have a blog and now I want to create something like a "front page" where the user can add a new story (something like a blog post) and they story will be displayed with Title, Description, Read more etc... and when the visitors will click on the title then will be displayed full story.

    How to make this, with someone MODx command, with someone addon/module/plugin or maybe multiply blogs ?
    I try with multiply blogs because I want front page to be like a blog, but when I call the blog command then the result is my blog posts (I can’t create a new (second) blog).

    If anyone have an idea to help me I would be grateful.
    Thanks.

      It sounds like you want the Ditto snippet (or the getResources snippet in MODx Revolution).

      It will display portions of the newest articles on any page.
