I'm working on setting up a modx-based blog.  I included jot in my "blog post" template using the following call:

Code:

[[Jot? &pagination=`10` &captcha=`1`]]

I'm eventually going to add more options and custom templates, but for now I'm just trying to get a bare-bones install going.  The snippet behaves as follows:

-The "Post a Comment" form displays properly.
-The Jot tables (modx_jot_content, modx_jot_fields and modx_jot_subscriptions) have been created in my mySQL DB but are all empty sets
-Clicking "submit" simply returns the user to the same page with no changes other than an anchor like
-Even when submitting validated fields blank, no error is displayed.

Any idea how to get this thing going correctly?

ModX Version is 0.9.6,
Jot version is 1.1.2.
MySQL Version is 5.0.30
PHP Version is 5.2.0-0.dotdeb.3 with Suhosin-Patch 0.9.6.2

Edit: since it seems to figure in a lot of Jot problems, I should say that I do not have the PHx snippet installed.

Call the snippet uncached, in your case:

Code:

[!Jot? &pagination=`10` &captcha=`1`!]

Tip: Whenever you deal with dynamic data, use the uncached syntax for the snippets. i.e. [!....!] instead of [[....]]

Thank you for your help Zi! That did it.
