Hello

I'm searching a way to populate dynamically Form Tabs and Grid Columns e.g.:
For Form Tabs I tried :

[
{"caption":"TV", "fields": [
[[!getImageList? &tvname=`migx2` &tpl=`migx-json-tpl` &outputSeparator=`,`]]
]}
]

and

[
{"caption":"TV", "fields": [
@EVAL return $modx->runSnippet('getImageList',array('tvname'=>'migx2', 'tpl'=>'migx-json-tpl', 'outputSeparator'=>','));
]}
]

without success :-/

Do your configuration for that TV with the MIGX - configurator - CMP

Create a new configuration with the name, for example:

mymigxconfig

put that same name to the field 'unique MIGX ID'

Add your columns to that configuration.

put the name of that configuration into the TV - configuration into the field 'configs'

The fields 'formtabs' and 'columns' schould be empty then.

Create a file

mymigxconfig.config.inc.php under the folder 'core/components/migx/configs/'

The code of that file should be much the same like here:
https://github.com/Bruno17/migxCustomColumns/blob/master/core/components/migxcustomcolumns/migxconfigs/migxcustomcolumnsgrid.config.inc.php

Just change the tvname and the field - definitions.

-------------------------------

you can buy me a beer, if you like MIGX

Thanks for your reply.
Do you think it is possible to populate (programmatically add tv items) to a MIGX TV taking data from another MIGX TV?

2 MIGX TV :
MIGX TV1
MIGX TV2

New item "itv1" in MIGX TV1 -> add "itv1" as item data in a specific MIGX TV2 column ?

MIGX TV1
-----------
Name | Param1
-----------
itv1 | itv1par1

then populate automatically MIGX TV2 items (Name)each time item is added in MIGX TV1 :

MIGX TV2
------------
Name | Value
-----------
itv1 | itv2val2

Hey Bruno,

this is what I'm trying to acheive with no success.

I have this tv that the backend user can populate from MIGX that creat a listbox in some section of the site,
And I'm trying to fetch that information to populate a checkbos list in an other MIGX for the backend user to use without having to recreate them first.
I tried to understant what your wrote here but I think I don't have anought for me to understand.

here's images of what I have done;

in this first image, you see my 1st migx+tv that the backend user adds his categories for use on some part of the site.

in this 2nd image, you seem my attemps on fetching the categories on a specific ressource id with this code (where you see the huh

)

[[!getImageList? &docid=`1` &tvname=`Portfolio_configuration` &tpl=`@CODE:[[+foliocatego]]||` ]]

thanks you.
Francis

SOLUTION that I've found :
in the Input Option Value field I've put

@CHUNK list_categorie

then I made the «list_categorie» chunk

[[getImageList? &docid=`1` &tvname=`Portfolio_configuration` &tpl=`@CODE:[[+foliocatego]]||` ]]

What was IMPORTANT here, and what i was doing wrong, the getImageList MUST be cached (I was calling it uncached at first).
