We’ve just released our beta version of a FRED JSON writer. It takes the hard work out of creating the JSON for options and option sets. Please check it out and let me know what you think: [https://www.inside-creative.com/resources/modx-fred-json-editor/froson.html](https://www.inside-creative.com/resources/modx-fred-json-editor/froson.html) ---

Love it 🤗 Perhaps a tooltip on the Complete and Remote toggles would be good? Apart from that it’s very user friendly I think. Super 👍 ---

Thanks for the Feedback, I’ve added the tooltip messages. Not 100% sure if they make sense though. Might need to think of better phrasing. ---

This is a great little tool - thanks so much for your contribution to the community. I can’t really fault it, but I’d have one request: allow a partial copy of the JSON output. I’ve found myself adding to or editing existing settings so only need to copy a couple of n/v pairs or a bit of an object. If you were being really clever, it’d be great to import an existing object and allow editing that way! ---

Thanks @wallacio for the feedback. I’ll update it so you can copy partial code (I do it all the time and it was annoying me that I had to hold the mouse button down to copy the partial :D). I love the idea for the import existing objects. It’s on the roadmap for a later date. Just trying to implement the ability to group options. ---

Fixed the partial copy issue. You should now be able to select the code you want without it removing your selection ---

Perfect, thanks! Loving your Fred work; long time MODX user but I’m just getting up to speed and completed my first site with it. I have just stolen your RTE config gist too, so consider yourself served a virtual beer. ---

@inside-creative Excellent tool! I can definitely see myself using it in the future. Cheers 🙂
