    Hi there,

    I am trying to implement a simple blog for my site, and starting with the blog turtorial on the site.
    In the install file it says that I should install the following snippets:

    FlexSearchForm
    PageTrail
    DropMenu
    NewsListing
    UserComments


    But they are not to be found in the install folder on the original modX download (as said in the install) and I cant find them on the website either. Is it because the turtorial is outdated? Or how do I find the snippets?
    Are there a mature blog template for modx that anyone can suggest?

    Thanks a lot.

      FlexSearchForm
      PageTrail
      DropMenu
      NewsListing
      UserComments

      AjaxSearch
      Breadcrumbs
      Wayfinder
      Ditto
      Jot

      I think that these would be the substitutes. All of these are part of the install if you select to install the default snippets. A good way to figure out the bloging method is to take apart the demo site (install with demo content).
