The Revolution is here.
I installed many sites very easily with the ModX Evolution package and when I jumped into Revolution, I was salivating like a dog next to a steak. I am now moving through the 2.0 release, re-educating myself on some of the new coding and am going to keep my notes here. I definitely don’t know everything about modX so be sure to be active in these resources:
Things to rember:
Modx Revolution Chunks
Evoution => {{ChunkName}} :: Revolution => [[$ChunkName]]
ModX Revolution Weblinks
Evoution => [~1~] :: Revolution => [[~1]]
ModX Revolution Content Syntax
Evoution => [*#content*] :: Revolution => [[*content]]
Here is a great reference from the ModX site
