How do I get a list of resources that match a Tagger tag in the current resource?

I can’t seem to think through the proper syntax for this. I have installed Tagger and some of my resources are part of a series. So in Tagger I have a group(3) called “Series” with each series name. (Some are not part of a series and would be blank.)

On an existing resource I want to show a list of more in the same series. How do I get and display a list of resources that match the series tag from the current resource?

Do I need to be using the TaggerGetResourcesWhere snippet with TaggerGetTags being called inside that or is there a more streamlined way of getting the matching resources?

My plain snippet call with pdoResources looks like this and lists the first twenty unfiltered items as expected.

[[!pdoResources?
    &parents=`83`
    &hideContainers=`1`
    &sortby=`createdon`
    &sortdir=`ASC`
    &limit=`20`
    &tplWrapper=`series-outer-tpl`
    &tpl=`series-row-tpl`
]]

If I add the following &where line nothing changes. It still lists the first twenty.

&where=`[[!TaggerGetResourcesWhere? &groups=`3` &tags=`[[!TaggerGetTags? &resources=`[[*id]]` &rowTpl=`tag-alias-tpl`]]` ]]

If I use this &where, then nothing gets output at all.

&where=`[[!TaggerGetResourcesWhere? &groups=`3` &tags=`[[+id]]` ]]`

There is a snippet in Tagger called TaggerGetRelatedWhere. I think this snippet does what you want.
(Look at the comments in the snippet above the code, to see how to use it.)

Thanks. That worked well.

How does one update the official MODx Documentation to make mention of the extra snippets?
