    Hi all,

    Since last week I've started developing with modX, and I love it.
    Now I have one small question, probably more coming ^^

    case:
    In my website I have a news section. So I've created a news "menu" item in Resources and hide it from the menu. All the news articles I like to put under that item so you get some sort of three:

    News
    - item 1
    - item 2
    - ..

    Question:
    This is not a problem you can create an document and drag and drop it in the news section. But now I was wondering if it's possible to have an option when creating a document to select "parent" so my client can easily select "news"?


    Hope it's a bit clear.
    I'm exited to become active on this forum:)

      The NewsPublisher package will let you specify a parent. I think there may be a Default Parent extra (if not, there should be).

        Hi BobRay,

        Thanks, I think there was a default parent setting I believe or NewsPublisher added it. The thing is, the option is on another tab, how can I move that particular field to the main area?

        Thanks in advance.
