    PHP Version 5.2.17
    5.1.41-3ubuntu12.10
    =====


    Hallo. I have som strange problems with chunks/snippets and modifiers.

    ----------------------
    This chunk works:
    [[$formtop]]

    Not this way:
    [[*id:is=`1`:then=`[[$formtop]]`]]
    ----------------------

    The chunk "formtop" is a form built with FormIt.
    And the snippets to FormIt in "formtop" gets called uncached like this
    [[!FormIt?
    //... //
    ]]

    It seems that I can´t call on a chunk cached if there is a uncached call to a snippet in the chunk.

    • [[*id:is=`1`:then=`[[$formtop]]`]] + [[!FormIt? //... // ]] = Don´work

    • [[!*id:is=`1`:then=`[[$formtop]]`]] + [[!FormIt? //... // ]] = Work

    • [[!*id:is=`1`:then=`[[$formtop]]`]] + [[FormIt? //... // ]] = Work

    • [[*id:is=`1`:then=`[[$formtop]]`]] + [[FormIt? //... // ]] = Work

    ----------------------

    Has anyone seen this issue before. Should I be able to call chunks uncached that has cached call in them?

    Best regards

          Yes.

          Both [[*id:is=`1`:then=`[[!$formtop]]`]] and [[!*id:is=`1`:then=`[[$formtop]]`]] works if I also have the snippet in the chunk called witch cach.

          So it seems to me that if a snippet call inside a chunk is beeing call with no cache - I also have to call the hole chunk from my HTML-doc with no cache. Otherwise the chunk call will not make any output at all for me.

          I can work like this ... just wondering if this a feature or a bug smiley

            It seems like this editor is cutting my text. I like to insett

            *id:is=`1`:then=`!$formtop`

            ... with brackets on the rigtht places byt the "chunk part" is beeing cut away from my text ... ??

            This is my first post here so maybe I am doing something wrong. Tips? smiley

              Just put any MODX tags within code tags and it will preserve it...

              FWIW, as a general rule of thumb, you should only call things non-cacheable that you specifically want to be evaluated each and every time.
