MODX 3: Show the Context Key in Tree Instead of Name?

ambaxter · December 29, 2022, 6:54pm

I notice that in the latest version, we’re showing the Context Name in the tree as opposed to the key. This causes a bit of confusion when duplicating contexts since there is no option to update the name during the duplication process.

Is there a setting or somewhere in the mgr code that I can switch back to keys. I’d prefer it this way during development. I’d probably switch back to names after that.

It doesn’t look like there is a setting for that:

              : '';
          $class[] = !empty($this->permissions['new_context_static_resource']) && $createRoot
              ? $this->permissions['new_context_static_resource']
              : '';
          $class[] = !empty($this->permissions['resource_quick_create']) && $createRoot
              ? $this->permissions['resource_quick_create']
              : '';
          
          $context->prepare();
          return [
              'text' => $context->get('name') != '' ? $context->get('name') : $context->get('key'),
              'id' => $context->get('key') . '_0',
              'pk' => $context->get('key'),
              'ctx' => $context->get('key'),
              'settings' => [
                  'default_template' => $context->getOption('default_template'),
                  'richtext_default' => $context->getOption('richtext_default'),
                  'hidemenu_default' => $context->getOption('hidemenu_default'),
                  'search_default' => $context->getOption('search_default'),
                  'cache_default' => $context->getOption('cache_default'),
                  'publish_default' => $context->getOption('publish_default'),

Only for resources there is the setting resource_tree_node_name.

Thanks @halftrainedharry - I’ll just mod the core file for now and submit a feature request to the repo.
