Description
Use FirstChildRedirect to redirect users to the first document in a folder (based on menuindex sort order) when they access a folder document within MODx.
If no children are found for the specified document, FirstChildRedirect will redirect users to the site start page, though this behavior can easily be modified in the snippet code: just look for $modx->config'site_start' and replace it with another config value ( e.g. $modx->config'error_page' ) or a specific document id.
Instructions
Install via Package Managment.

Description
Use FirstChildRedirect to redirect users to the first document in a folder (based on menuindex sort order) when they access a folder document within MODx.
If no children are found for the specified document, FirstChildRedirect will redirect users to the site start page, though this behavior can easily be modified in the snippet code: just look for $modx->config'site_start' and replace it with another config value ( e.g. $modx->config'error_page' ) or a specific document id.
Instructions
Create a new snippet called FirstChildRedirect and copy and paste the contents of the snippet.FirstChildRedirect.tpl file into it. Save the snippet and you are ready to use it.
You can place the snippet in any content of a MODx document specified as a folder (i.e. has children) to redirect to the first child:
FirstChildRedirect
or for cached folders, use...
!FirstChildRedirect!
You can optionally have it redirect to the first child of another document by specifying the parameter docid...
FirstChildRedirect &docid=`12`
UpdatesMakes the docid parameter optional and defaults to the current page.
