    Hi everybody!
    First steps with Ditto and I’m afraid I need to ask the forum for help already.

    I’m using Ditto 2.0.2 on MODx 0.9.6 and have placed this ditto call in a folder with the id 60:
    [[Ditto? &parents=`0,60` &depth=`5` &showPublishedOnly=`0` &showInMenuOnly=`0` &hideFolder=`0` &total=`all` &display=`10` &tpl=`nl_sidebar`]]
    but I’m only getting the "No documents found" error message from that. I had added parent 0 because I didn`t get anything from 60 and thought that might help, which it didn’t.

    The chunk is from my demo content and is supposed to be a default tpl for ditto, it reads:
    <strong><a href="[~[+id+]~]" title="[+title+]">[+title+]</a></strong><br />
    [+longtitle+]<br /><br />


    Also, I had copied the following css from the Ditto2 Blog section of modx.css and inserted it into the template I’m using for children of id=60, but that didn’t make a difference either
    .ditto_summaryPost h3 {
        border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;
        margin: 0px !important;
        padding: 5px !important;
        color: black;
    }
    .ditto_summaryPost .ditto_info {
        background-color: #F8F8F8;
        padding: 5px !important;
        font-size: 0.8em;
        color: black;
    }
    .ditto_link {
        font-size: 76%;
        text-align: right;
    }
    .ditto_paging {
        border-top: 1px solid #ccc;
        padding: 10px; 
        font-size: 86%;
        color: #618100;
    }
    #ditto_pages .ditto_currentpage {
        border: 1px solid #618100;
        padding: 1px 5px 2px; 
        margin-right: 1px;
        background-color: #9c0; 
        color: #fff;
    } 
    #ditto_pages .ditto_off {
        border: 1px solid #ccc;
        padding: 1px 5px 2px; 
        margin-right: 1px;
        color: #ccc;
    }
    #ditto_pages a, #ditto_pages a:link, #ditto_pages a:visited {
        border: 1px solid #9c0; 
        padding: 1px 5px 2px; 
        margin-right: 1px; 
        text-decoration: none !important; 
        color: #618100;
    } 
    #ditto_pages a:hover {
        background-color: #fff;
        color: #000;
    }
    #ditto_archivelist ul {
        list-style-type: none; 
        margin-left: 15px; 
        padding-left: 0;
    }
    #ditto_archivelist ul ul{
        list-style-type: square;
        margin-left: 35px;
    } 
    #ditto_archivelist .ditto_month {
        font-weight: bold;
    }


    Does anybody have a clue to what went wrong here? Any hints would be very much appreciated.
    Greetings, Alex

      What happens when you omit the the
      &showPublishedOnly=`0` &showInMenuOnly=`0`
      ?

      Are all your documents published?

      Thats the only thing I can think of at the moment (I am fairly new to ModX myself)

        Hi pal, you did it! That worked, thanks a lot!
        I had just put them in as sort of safety net when I couldn’t find the mistake in the call as it looked before, but it seems that I had at solved other problems I had before and created new ones at the same time. Whatever! You have saved my day! laugh
