  Hi, i cann't solve some problem.
  
  I use migx to let user select several resources via resource list TV. But how can i render resource names, based on resource id's? I think i have to add a function to migx.tpl, but what a function? Now the user sees only the resource ids, looking on migx grid...

  I couldn't tell you how to extend migx functionality to achieve this, but...
  
  A dirty work around though would be this:
  your resource list TV probably has a format like this:
  

  My first page==23||Some other page==43||Last Page==12

  
  The migx grid only shows the selected values like 23 or 43.
  If you change that format to this:
  

  My first page==[23] My first page||Some other page==[43] Some other page||Last Page==[12] Last Page

  
  the migx grid would show these values: [23] My first page / [43] Some other page
  
  When you process the selected values for further use (using the id to call a resource), you would have to extract the relevant id from the string with something like like this:
  

  $id = substr( $migxstring, 1, strpos( $migxstring, ']' ) - 1 );

  
  
  You see, it's a quick and dirty workaround, but it puts the resource's pagetitle into the migx grid and still provides its id for further use.

  This is of course much prettierer!
  
  Just one tiny little thing: the 'renderSecond' snippet could return wrong value if the pagetitle would include a : of its own.
  So maybe use this as 'renderSecond', just to be sure?
  

  <?php
   
  $val = explode(':',$input);
  return array_pop($val);

  Hi all migx users,
  
  I have a question about a field combination in migx.
  1) a dropdown (tv.dropdown is used @SELECT, to get users name from modx)
  2) a textfield
  
  Both are user name field [both not required], when an user name is not in the dropdown list, the user can add the name in the textfield.
  
  my idea is:
  if (dropdown) {
  use the name from dropdown
  } else (textfield) {
  use the filled name
  }
  
  I want to know or this is possible in migx? Anybody that can give me a direction for this?
  Thanks for your help...
  
  Using:
  MODX Revolution 2.1.3-pl (traditional)
  migx 1.1.0

  you will need a dropdown-tv with @eval-binding input-options. You can use

  return runSnippet('getResources',$params);

  if (dropdown) {
  use the name from dropdown
  } else (textfield) {
  use the filled name
  }
  

  
  I would do the opposite:
  
  

  [[+textfield:isnot=``:then=`[[+textfield]]`:else=`[[+dropdownfield]]`]]

  @Bruno, thanks to give me on the right direction. Your solution will solve my issue
  
  I have one more question, don't know or this is the right area to ask. Do you know or it is possible to have an empty field in the drop down list when I'm using @SELECT. Thanks for your kindly help..
