1. How do I specify, that for the root document I do not want any alias, just a www.domain.com.

2. Is there some MODx tag/function, that would return the root url? For example, RFC says, that even in the simplest 301/302 redirection, it must be in the form of full valid URI, like 302 See Other : http://www.domain.com/some-modx-site, not just /some-modx-site, like is everywhere implemented. So when creating a snippet, I don't want to use just "302 See Other: [~id~]", I need the full URI with www. ... and directories, if presented.

Thanks a lot.

I came into the same problem and it has also been mentioned in another thread
@
http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,5375.0.html

I ended up creating a small plugin which that listens to 'OnWebPagePrerender' and removes the alias/id (I left the start page named the default of '1') from the links to the start page and set it to point at the web root '/'.

Code:

$output = $modx->documentOutput;
$pattern = '/href=\"1\/\"/';
$replacement = 'href="/"';
$modx->documentOutput = preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $output);
