Hi,

I have a resources structure like this :

Year 2014
- Jeudi 26 Juin
- Vendredi 27 Juin
- Samedi 28 Juin
- Dimanche 29 Juin

The number of days can change depending of the years...

I need to produce this kind of code :

<button class="button" data-filter=".day-1">Jeudi 26 Juin</button>
<button class="button" data-filter=".day-2">Vendredi 27 Juin</button>
<button class="button" data-filter=".day-3">Samedi 28 Juin</button>
<button class="button" data-filter=".day-4">Dimanche 29 Juin</button>

My problem is how to automatically get the iteration for "day-1", "day-2"...

Any idea ?

You can't iterate over getResources' results because what it returns is a single, large string of text.

You might still be able to do what you want with getResources, though, if you can sort the results so they end up in the correct order (by, say, the createdon field). You can then use getResources' +idx placeholder to put in the day number:

<button class="button" data-filter=".day-[[+idx]]">[[+pagetitle]]</button>

I didn't know the placeholder [[+idx]]
Thanks a lot, it's working like a charm ! [ed. note: Spheerys last edited this post 9 years, 5 months ago.]
