ModX Revo: Display one resource within another

Question

I want to display the contents of one resource within another. I think this is possible with getResources but I cannot get it working for me. I have:

[[getResources &parents=`-1` $resources =`16`]]

but nothing displays. I have made sure all resources have been published and that getResources is installed correctly.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Answer 1

Yes - that's exactly what getResources is for, you are not getting anything because you have a few syntax errors.

[[getResources &parents=-1 $resources =16]]

should be:

[[getResources? &parents=-1 &resources =16 &tpl=myTpl]]

the '?' tells Modx that there will be parameters, $resources will get ignored & if you don't specify an &tpl parameter, getResources will just dump the raw array to your page.

Answer 2

Actually there is no need to use a template. This code is working fine:

[[getResources? &resources=1 &tpl=@INLINE [[+content]] &includeContent=1 ]]
