    -Parent
  --Container 1
     ---Resource 1
     ---Resource 2
     ---Latest Resource
  --Container 2
     ---Resource 1
     ---Latest Resource
  --Container 3
     ---Resource 1
     ---Resource 2
     ---Latest Resource



    Based on resource structure above. Is it possible using getResources to get only the resources i named "Latest Resource" above?

    So here's my initial snippet tag 
    [[!getResources? &parents=`PARENT ID` &tpl=`CHUNK TPL` &hideContainers=`1` &depth=`2`]]


    How am i going to improve my snippet tag or add filters that will only get the latest created resource on every resource container?


    Thanks smiley

      Sort them DESC by ID or createon and limit it to 1 if you only want the last one.

        It's rarely necessary to call getResources uncached, and it can seriously slow down your page loads.
