I was following the Modx demo site from the opensourcecms to walk my way through the Blog page on my site but is having a brain fart.
What I wanted to show is like so and they are all blog articles.
+Blog /* container */
+Topic X /* container */
- topic X 1
- topic X 2
- topic X 3
+Topic Y /* container */
- topic Y 1
- topic Y 2
and the result here:
http://tinyurl.com/33xa6o (note: on the right column however it’s just plain html markup for the moment)
In Modx demo site it’s represent in such manner:
News: /* in h3 tag */
- Mini-Blog HOWTO
Most Recent: /* in h3 tag */
- Ajax 2006.09.26
But I see that it used two different snippets, one is [[Ditto]] (for News’schildren) and the other [[ListIndexer]] (for Most Recent’s children) and the <h3> tag is just plain html.
If I have my categories markup like so with this Ditto calls
[[Ditto? &startID=`9` &summarize=`2` &removeChunk=`Comments` &tpl=`ditto_blog` &paginate=`1` &extenders=`summary,dateFilter` &paginateAlwaysShowLinks=`1` &tagData=`documentTags`]]
and the chunk:
<ol> <li><a href="[~[+id+]~]" title="[+title+]">[+title+]<span>posted on [+date+] | <a href="[~[+id+]~]#commentsAnchor">Comments
([!Jot?&docid=`[+id+]`&action=`count-comments`!])</a></span></li>
</ol>
the result:
http://tinyurl.com/2loqpc
As you can see, the output is only for the blog entries and it doesn’t show the <h3>. The demo page example doesn’t make the h3 a ditto call. How do I call the h3 from Ditto (
and preferable without link on second thought, it probably needs links as the articles will be built up over the time and I need an archive for it (archive grouped with categories too)? Should I put the <h3> call in chunk or in the category containers? I was thinking something more along with Reflect ’tplContainer’, but I don’t know how to go about doing it:
TIA!
