Hi there!

I have another noob MigX question. I succesfully got MigX listing working - thats great. But is there a way for instance to have it like a Post - with single page view?

Lets say I have an Item I add to a list like normal - now I want to have a short description of the item, maybe an image - but also a link to a single page of that item on which I will have more text and images connected to the item - but how can I tell MigX to make this single page too?

Thank you!

you can have a simple snippet, which switches between listing and detail - view:

<?php
//[[switchMigxDetailView? &detailChunk=`detailChunk` &listingChunk=`listingChunk`]]


$properties['migx_id'] = $modx->getOption('migx_id',$_GET,'');

if (!empty($properties['migx_id'])){
    $output = $modx->getChunk($detailChunk,$properties);
}
else{
    $output = $modx->getChunk($listingChunk);
}

return $output;

?>

replace the getImageList-call with this snippet-tag:

[[switchMigxDetailView? &detailChunk=`detailChunk` &listingChunk=`listingChunk`]]

then have two chunks, one with the normal Listing, the other one with the getImageList-call for the Detail-View:

[[!getImageList? &tvname=`yourTvname` &tpl=`detailTpl` &where=`{"MIGX_id":"[[+migx_id]]"}`]]

in your listing-getimagelist-tpl you will need a link:

<a href="[[~[[*id]]? &migx_id=`[[+MIGX_id]]`]]">view details</a>

does this work? Didn't test it, just an idea

...............

and please put MIGX - related questions into the MIGX - board of this forum!

Dear Bruno - thank you very much for this very detailed answer! I have tried it but maybe it's just a bit too heavy for the beginning...it didn't work right now.

I created a snippet with your php Code. (I just named it "switchMigxDetailView")
I replaced the chunk with yours.
I Created the chunk "detailChunk" with your code.
I Created the chunk "listingChunk.

I guess I am just a bit confused how to set this up right.

Do I have to create a "detailTpl" as a chunk? Sorry..me <--- noob

sorry, you will need to call it uncached:

[[!switchMigxDetailView? &detailChunk=`detailChunk` &listingChunk=`listingChunk`]]

and yes you will need to create two chunks, with names detailChunk and listingChunk

normally the snippet should call the listingChunk and list all images
If there is a $_GET - var 'migx_id' this should call the detailChunk

Hi Bruno,

thanks for the snippet - but I tried it again -> no luck.

I am getting the whole posts listed with your codes, but the link is not rendered right:

http://localhost/modx//index.php?id=6&migx_id=[[+MIGX_id]]

listing chunk:

[[!getImageList? 
    &tvname=`services`
 
    &tpl=`@CODE:  


 

<section id="[[+idx]]">
<div id="md">

    <h2>[[+title]]</h2>
   <p>[[+beschreibung]]</p>
<p>[[+videolink]]</p>
<p>[[+vorteil]]</p>
</div>

<a href="[[~[[*id]]? &migx_id=`[[+MIGX_id]]`]]">view details</a>
 
</section>

  `]]

detailChunk:

[[!getImageList? &tvname=`services` &tpl=`detailTpl` &where=`{"MIGX_id":"[[+migx_id]]"}` ]]

Finally the "chunk_test" I put in my template [[$chunkt_test]]:

[[!switchMigxDetailView? &detailChunk=`detailChunk` &listingChunk=`listingChunk`]]

don't use '@CODE:' here, but put the tpl-code in a chunk

did test it and it was working for me.
