getResources + depth questions

Hello,

Modx 2.2.1, + getResources latest version from repo.

When I use &depth=`1` it seems to ignore it. I've actually never been able to get any effect from the inclusion of &depth, so I'm clearly doing something wrong...

I don't know what, though.
Here's my call:

				[[getResources?
					&parents=`[[*id]]`
					&tpl=`Agr.mainbar`
					&includeContent=`1`
					&depth=`1`
					&limit=`20`
					&showHidden=`1`
				]]

No ideas. I am in a situation where I could really use depth. Normally I just end up making a different template, or writing a new snippet, and swearing a little bit. But this time I really need it

So, is this outputting resources that are on depth2, depth3 etc ?

yes. Unless I don't understand what depth means...

That just occured to me...

Top parent resource = depth 0
>> child level one = depth 1
>> >> child level two = depth 2

Is that correct?

This should output the first level:

[[getResources?
    &parents=`[[*id]]`
    &tpl=`Agr.mainbar`
    &includeContent=`1`
    &depth=`0`
    &limit=`20`
    &showHidden=`1`
]]

Brilliant!

Thanks so much. I don't know why I didn't try that before.

I don't know why, but on my Revo 2.2.0 I see the first level with &depth=`0`, unfortunately I can't find any detailed documentation on this, but when I try with &depth=`1` I actually see the second level of depth.

That would appear to work here too.
And it makes sense to me, now that I think about it. Arrays always start with [0].
