Answered How to achieve this "output" using articles/getResources ?

Hi I am trying to acheive a certain getresource output on a new blog im working on for me and my wife using modX. I have a working knowledge of articles and getResources but some advanced modX related stuff still eludes me. this is specifically what I'm trying to achieve:

1. I would like to "associate" or perhaps "tag" each new "blog post" in articles with its own specific image file i can upload to the site.

2. Then on the home page i would like to use "getResources" to output the recent blog posts using a styling consisting of this "associated" image, and an overlay div where the title would go. this would link to the full blog post in articles. (I have an image example of how i would like this output to look)


Is this achievable with articles/getResoruces alone? what steps do i need to take to do this? Thanks for any insight!

Thank you very much! I had actually started to check out template variables as the solution; just didn't quite understand how to use them. i've done some reading of the docs and now i get it! thanks for letting me know i was headed in the right direction! I really appreciate it! now i have the tv setup and back to developing have a good day!

@wonderfulweb glad to help make sure to check out my MODX Tutorial site CMSTricks where I discuss a lot of MODX tips and tricks.

Good Luck.
