TIPS & TRICKS

• Displaying MODx tags in an (X)HTML page
  Just a tip for anyone wanting to display MODx tags in an HTML page.
• Making Site moves from Staging to Production Easier
  If you've ever developed a site at a staging URL, either the IP or a different domain, you've probably run into problems when you've moved it to the live URL. This is usually because the RTE makes your paths complete URLs, so instead of having the src of an image be /assets/images/pic1.jpg, it turns into http://stagingdomain/assets/images/pic1.jpg
• Template Migration
  Say you have 1,000 documents or more, and have multiple templates, and you are considering a re-design of a whole website! OUCH! Its a pain to change 1,000 documents' templates via traditional editing facility. Don't worry, MODx provides you a very easy way to do this tedious job in very short time.

That's a good advice Ryan. It will help me and the mdoerator to do the updating easier.

Yeap, that's what I'm planning to do. I might not be able to update it regularly, because I still have my hands full with programming the current snippet that I just released, and all the projects that are waiting for me to get them out of the door ASAP. Any moderator help will be great, such as Zi maybe? 

For all of you: I will add the snippet to the list as well. Any further information for the next posting will be great, such as giving the details, link, and title.

Sincerely,

[Djamoer]

Thanks very useful thread!

Thanks Jason, but I thought that's not the right topic, because the title doesn't looks like a snippet release "I am looking for an Image Gallery snippet with image upload".

I add them both. If you're willing to clarify this for me, which one that we need to use? A little bit of explanation on each of them will be great.

Pardon me, because I never use this one before.
