Answered getResources and folder levels

Hi,

Is it possible using getResources to use a different TPL for items in the site-tree - so, for parent items using TPL1 and then children items use TPL2? So I will use getResources to pull resources from the main parent folder titled MASTER FOLDER

e.g.

Master folder

- Folder 1
-- Child 1 1
-- Child 1 2

- Folder 2
-- Child 2 1
-- Child 2 2

So Folder 1 and Folder 2 would use TPL1 and Child 1 1, Child 1 2, Child 2 1 and Child 2 2 will use TPL2.

Is that possible?

GetResources by its nature does not deal with levels as such, it creates a single flat output. Perhaps you would be better off using Wayfinder, or even better pdoMenu to create your structured output.

While by default pdoMenu (and Wayfinder) creates a simple nested unordered list, you can use tpls for each section of the output to form any structure you want.

Good idea Susan - now why didnt I think of using WayFinder! Great stuff - thanks
