Okay hi guys I'm back, Tha
nks for all the help you have provided, it is so so helpful. Thanks. So I went back to the documents on the modx rtfm (
http://rtfm.modx.com/revolution/2.x/case-studies-and-tutorials/developing-an-extra-in-modx-revolution) and found that thy had been updated. Not sure if that was one of you guys or someone else but who ever it was changed things up a bit. So I put in all the needed code and I think I am starting to get some where. I got some very neat messages when I regenerated the class files and maps with the new code. That went very well.. although i did get a error code
"Could not load class: SlideDat from mysql.slidedat."
I have gone through my code and seen lots of places where I made uppercase SlideDat and lowercase slideDat for the code like:
$slideD = $modx->getService('slideDat','SlideDat',$modx->getOption('slideDat.core_path',null,$modx->getOption('core_path').'components/slideDat/').'model/slideDat/',$scriptProperties);
I thought that since the doodles snippet had upercase and lowercase names I would place mine the same way...So my thoughts are that I may have mixed the uppercase and lower case name slideDat around... Here is my code, if any of you can help that would be great!
build.config.php:
<?php
/**

Thank you all so very much and my apologies If I am taking from your time to often. I do not wish to appear lazy or someone who just wants everyone else to do the work. I am really trying but I just need some helpful guidance. I really wish to contribute to the community and do my part.
Thank you all,
ModxNooby
