this is a quote from the download page:

4) Create a new snippet in the manager called "PHx" and copy/paste the contents

Is it supposed to read 4) Create a new plugin.... ?

Could I use this for formating placeholders in Ditto? I want to remove
from articles when using [+summary+] in my template for Ditto. I tried to do it by [+summary:strip+] but it doesn’t work.

Maybe I’m totally misunderstanding what to use PHx for, I’m kind of a newbie

I first pasted the Plugin code starting/ending with <?php ?> when creating the PlugIn, that removed my text completely. After looking into the existing plugins I saw that <?php ?> probably shouldn’t be there, so I removed it. But now I instead only get an empty page saying "Array".

Btw, install instructions included in file still says create a snippet

No, you can’t use PHx with Ditto as it parses its placeholders before sending them to MODx. However, I do plan on incorperating PHx functionality into Ditto in the future.

Okej, sounds perfect! PHx is great, and Ditto will be even better when it supports PHx.

I’ll find another way to get rid of line feeds in the Ditto summary, I’ll try to find anything in the Ditto thread... or maybe that can’t be made with Ditto, if so I wait until Ditto works with PHx .

Thanks for the reply

@Mark, you can include the chunkie.class.inc.php (available in Jot) in Ditto.
Chunkie is an API I created to simplify all the template logic and it uses the PHx parser.
I will release Chunkie with documentation somewhere these days.

Quick bug fix for version 1.0.2

in phx.parser.class.inc.php, line 55:

replace:

$input = $modx->documentObject[$input];

with

$input = $modx->documentObject[str_replace("#","",$input)];
