I need to preview a number of the page i am on*.
(i have a thumbnail carousel where i can decide, based on a number, to start the carousel)
I can't use the id or menuindex.
* Lets say the resource tree looks like:
Food
- tomato
- cheese
- apple
Is there a "easy" way to show/output a number on the page i am?
Where i like to have tomato : 1 , cheese: 2 , apple: 3
Wayfinder? Ditto? Custom?

Evolution user, I like the back-end speed and simplicity

*BUMP*
I did manage to count total pages:
[ ! counting ? & parent = `2` ! ]
<?php
$parent = isset($parent) ? (integer)$parent : $modx->documentObject['id'];
$child_count = $modx->db->getRecordCount( $modx->db->select( 'id',$modx->getFullTableName('site_content'), 'parent="'.$parent.'" AND published="1"' ) );
$output = $child_count !='' ? $child_count : '';
return $output;
?>

Ditto:
With [+ditto_iteration+] placeholder.
Iteration starts from zero, so actual page number would be then:
[+ditto_iteration:math=`?+1`+]
Thanks!
I had to have current doc number and not all numbers so i used ditto tplCurrentDocument and tpl [ + description + ] which isn't filled so i get blank result.
