If/Else resource is 2nd level and has children

Hi All,

Sorry if this has already been asked.

Is there a way I can check if a resource is level 2 and has children and then print specific code in a template?

I've seen:
[[If?
&subject=`[[*isfolder]]`
&then=`Some html Here`
&else=`Different html Here`
]]

But I'm not sure how to check if it's only second level folder.

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a custom snippet you should write.. I cannot remember something that covers this

This snippet would return a number giving the depth and you could use that in your conditional. You'll have to experiment to see what number it returns for your 2nd-level resources.

Here's an enhancement that will also test isfolder at the same time:





If it's not a folder, the snippet with return nothing. If it is, it will return the level.

Note that unlike Evolution, a non-folder can have children and a folder can have no children.

If you want to test whether it has children (rather than the isfolder setting), change the last line to:



BTW, I would put the desired output in the snippet as well for speed or use $modx->getChunk() to pull it in from a chunk.

[[!GetLevel]]

<!--?php
/*GetLevel snippet */
$parentIds = $modx--->getParentIds($modx->resource->get('id'))
$count = count($parentIds);
return $modx->resource->get('isfolder')? $count : '';

If it's not a folder, the snippet with return nothing. If it is, it will return the level.

Note that unlike Evolution, a non-folder can have children and a folder can have no children.

If you want to test whether it has children (rather than the isfolder setting), change the last line to:

return $modx->resource->hasChildren()? $count : '';

Thank you sooo much!!!!

Don't thank me until it works.

I've tried to use this snippet with revo 2.4.2 but it does not seems to work anymore.
What to do to make it work again ?

If you're using the version from the post above, remove this line:



It shouldn't be there.

Yes i've seen that but i use this code :



But it is not working.

It was just missing a semicolon :
