have been building a new website in Modx and just installed getResources.
The problem I'm having is I can't get it to work. I can't even get the array to work.
Here is what I have don so far. I have created a simple template called "test_template."
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<base href="[[++site_url]]" />
</head>
<body>
[[!getResources? &showHidden=`1`]]
</body>
</html>
From there I created a resource page and called it "get-resources-test." I also set the template to "test_template." When I test the page it comes back blank.
I have tried uninstalling and re-installing getResources. When it installs it says "successful."
Here is the link

Any ideas what is wrong?

By default getResources will list all resources that are children of the current resource (the one being viewed). If you create a resource, then create a child, viewing the child won't show anything, since the child has no children. You'll only see results if viewing the parent resource.
Your right. Thank you sottwell! My original plan is not going to work. Back to the chalk board.

Have you considered using
or even using the UltimateParent snippet as the parents property value?
You could also use a TV with @INHERIT as its default value, edit it in the parent resource and set it to its own ID, and use the TV's tags for the parents property value. That way all of the children of that parent resource would inherit the same value.
