Placeholder as link doesn't work

joe-petts — Nov 27, 2017, 03:15 PM

Hello MODx comunity,

i cant set my placeholder as link in chunk:

Snippet:


$newsite = "24";
$modx->setPlaceholder('mysite', $newsite);

$mychunk = $modx->getChunk('site-tpl');
 
$res = $modx->getObject('modResource',$id);
$res->set('content',$mychunk);
$res->save();

Chunk site-tpl:

Here is my new site: My new Site

TestID: [[+mysite]]

HTML:

Here is my new site: My new Site

TestID: 24

what is wrong here?

Resourcefields and Templatevariables are two different things.

(the number in parentheses next to the TV's name in the Elements tree)

In the Elements tree i see only my tvs but not the regular tvs like uri, pagetitle, longtitle... Where i can see the tv for example "pagetitle"?

If i set my tv (2) für tvId, then i get the same result.

But i change the snippet and it works now:

$tv = "uri";
$id = "713";
$parent = $modx->getObject('modResource', $id);
return $modx->getOption('site_url'). $parent->get($tv);

That will happen if the $resourceId or the $tvId are wrong. TvId must be a number (the number in parentheses next to the TV's name in the Elements tree).

The $resourceId, may also be wrong (try it with the correct TV ID first), but fixing it depends on where and how the snippet is called. Since I think it's in a Tpl chunk, this might work:

[[!snippetName? &docId=`[[+id]]` ]]

Then in the snippet:

$resourceId = $modx->getOption('docId', $scriptProperties);

Thanks Bob,

i get only the option site_url and not the uri of the page. What i'm do wrong?

(its my tvId wrong? I dont know the id of uri..)

    $resourceId = $unterseiteid; //$modx->resource->get('id') ??
    $tvId = uri;
  
    $query = $modx->newQuery('modTemplateVarResource', array(
    'contentid' => $resourceId,
    'tmplvarid' => $tvId,
    ));
    $query->select('value');
    return $modx->getOption('site_url') . $modx->getValue($query->prepare());

If you can use the raw value of the TV and the TV is never empty or set to a default value, something like this will be very fast:

$resourceId = 23; //$modx->resource->get('id') ??
$tvId = 12;
 
$query = $modx->newQuery('modTemplateVarResource', array(
    'contentid' => $resourceId,
    'tmplvarid' => $tvId,
));
$query->select('value');
$return $modx->getOption('site_url') . $modx->getValue($query->prepare());

Note that you would no longer need the site_url tag prefix.

I need one snippet, which i can copy for my other sites without other plugins. I try to create fast and minimized snippet for my individual applications.

It's possible to get the id's with my own snippet similare "FastField".

[[++site_url]][[!myFF? &tv=`uri` &id=`[[+unterseiteid]]`]]

But i hope find smarter way to solve that.

Why not just a snippet, like getResources or pdoResources to get the children of the parent dynamically?

Here is my snippet. I create 2 pages (parent & child) and give the parent one link to the child.

/*--------- Work vom Formular abrufen ---------*/
$work = $_POST["work"]; 

if (isset($work)) {

// Erstellt die Überseite
      
    $pagetitle = $work;
    $parent = "0";
    $alias = "my-". $work;
    $template = 3;
    $richtext = 0;
    $published = true;

$doc = $modx->newObject('modDocument');
    $doc->set('parent',$parent);
    $doc->set('pagetitle',$pagetitle);
    $doc->set('alias',$alias);
    $doc->set('template',$template);
    $doc->set('published',$published);
    $doc->set('richtext',$richtext);    
    $doc->save();
    $id = $doc->get('id');


// Erstellt die Unterseite

    $pagetitle3 = "Arbeit 1";
    $template3 = "3";
    $alias3 = "meine-arbeiten";
    $published3 = true;
    $hidemenu3 = true;

    $doc = $modx->newObject('modDocument');
    $doc->set('parent', $id);
    $doc->set('pagetitle',$pagetitle3);
    $doc->set('alias',$alias3);
    $doc->set('template',$template3);
    $doc->set('published',$published3);
    $doc->set('hidemenu',$hidemenu3);
    $doc->save(); 
    $unterseiteid = $doc->get('id');


//  Bearbeitet den Content der Startseite und fügt Verlinkungen zu den Unterseiten ein
 
    $properties = array();
    $properties['unterseiteid'] = $unterseiteid;
    
    $mychunk = $modx->getChunk('kat-templates',$properties);
    echo $mychunk;

    $res = $modx->getObject('modResource',$id);
    $res->set('content',$mychunk);
    $res->save();

}

My "kat-templates" Chunk:

Überseite von Work
Hier geht es direkt zu den einzelnen Arbeitsbereichen

Thats it.
