    I am new to modX, and I like it for it’s interface, but it takes a bit of patience to code things correctly, I find. I’m a designer, not a programmer, but can find my way around easily enough.

    The project: a site for an organization with different "groups" that each need a way to have their own news display on those pages. So, I’m gotten a "blog" of sorts working with tags and the call "tagLinks". I also have a drop-down on the pages to add a set list of tags, rather than allowing the addition of someone’s own tags. Say I have 3 tags in the list.

    What I now need is three separate pages who’s calls to ditto grab ONLY the documents that have the specific tags. Page A grabs group A’s news (tagged as "GroupA"), page B grabs B, etc.

    Right now, using call parameters like "&tagMode=`onlyTags` &tags=’GroupA`" (suggested on the modX wiki) do nothing... all articles appear on every page that calls to ditto.

    Help! Any and all suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance.

      Could a moderator move this question in to the Ditto Section of the forums?

            Actually, I followed that screencast and could get most of it to work, but it’s not exactly what I am trying to do. I will fiddle ith the suggestions and let you know what I learn!
