There's a good chance that it's a Firefox plugin, rather than Firefox itself. [ed. note: BobRay last edited this post 5 years, 8 months ago.]

Bob,
The only plugins running are Shockwave Flash 19.0 r0 and PDF-XChange Viewer. To be honest, after updating Firefox (now version 42.0, I believe) it seems a bit buggy when working with MODX. It doesn't accurately detect when a page/resource has been altered, and with non-altered resources when I click to navigate to a different resource Firefox shows me a popup about saving data before moving away from the resource.

Anyway, not to worry. Now I know it is a caching issue with a particular browser, I can warn the client and there shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks again.

I've had issues with the latest version of Firefox on several non-modx sites. I haven't noticed anything on a MODX site, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Hey All, so I am having the same issue, and changing the browser did not get it done. What I am doing is running an EVAL script in a multi-select list.

@EVAL return $modx->runSnippet('getResources', array('parents'=>'0', 'showHidden'=>'1', 'tplFirst'=>'tvInputOptionsFirstTpl', 'tpl'=>'tvInputOptionsTpl', 'context'=>'web', 'limit'=>'0', 'depth'=>'4', 'sortby'=>'pagetitle', 'sortdir'=>'ASC', 'where'=>'{"template:=":7}'));

tplFirst:

[[+pagetitle]]==[[+id]]

tpl:

||[[+pagetitle]]==[[+id]]

Any help would be great....

Thanks

Is there a tag that displays the TV's content?

You might try switching to pdoResources (in the pdoTools extra), though I'm not sure it will make a difference.

You're not using CacheMaster by any chance?

Create a snippet with this code from your TV (reformatted -- it has to be on one line in the TV):

return $modx->runSnippet('getResources', 
   array(
      'parents'=>'0', 
      'showHidden'=>'1', 
      'tplFirst'=>'tvInputOptionsFirstTpl',
      'tpl'=>'tvInputOptionsTpl',
      'context'=>'web',
      'limit'=>'0', 
      'depth'=>'4', 
      'sortby'=>'pagetitle', 
      'sortdir'=>'ASC', 
      'where'=>'{"template:=":7}'
    )
);

Put a tag for it on a page and see what it returns.

This is the out put:

That looks about right, though you haven't said what you mean to do with that data. If you just want to show a list of links to those pages, Wayfinder might work a lot better.

[[Wayfinder?
   &rowTpl=`MyRowTpl`
   &startId=`0`
   &level=`4`
   &sortBy=`pagetitle`
   &sortOrder=`ASC`
   &contexts=`web`
   &ignoreHidden=`0`
   &where=`{"template:=":7}`
]]

If necessary, you could use TVs for the values above.

The rowTpl would look something like this:

<li><a href="[[+wf.link]]">[[+wf.linktext]]</a>[[+wf.wrapper]]</li>

Hey Bob,

Let me break it down a little further. So we are using have series of casestudies, some are for multiple crops. So we have a container page that has all of these studies under them. In each study we have this EVAL call to pull all the crops that they can be tagged if you will with the related casestudies.

What is happening we select them, save, and go back and the checkboxes, or multiselect list is blank. It is as if we never checked them.

Check and Saved

When I reopen the file
