Not working for MODX Revolution 2.3

[DESIGNfromWITHIN]

Am I right that ElementHelper is not working on MODX Revolution 2.3? Would love to use it on my experimental installs!

Hmm, probably not if big changes have been made to the way elements are handled in 2.3. I've only tested on the current stable version of Revolution so far but it looks like they're getting close to releasing 2.3 so I'll have to do something about that.

I also just tried to use ElementHelper in the latest nightly release of MODX Revo 2.3, and it does not appear to be working. It would be really great to have ElementHelper ready for the Revo 2.3 public release. Do you have a new release of ElementHelper in the works?

[roryg]

I've just seen Modx 2.3 is scheduled for release on the 15th so I'm going to try and have a new better version ready before then. :)

What is actually broken in 2.3?

Figured I'd go through the source to see if I could spot anything that might be broken for 2.3.

https://github.com/roryg/ElementHelper/blob/master/core/components/elementhelper/elements/plugins/plugin.elementhelper.php#L10 and https://github.com/roryg/ElementHelper/blob/master/core/components/elementhelper/elements/plugins/plugin.elementhelper.php#L297 $modx->getMicroTime() has been deprecated for a long time and should not have been used. It was removed in 2.3. Use microtime(true) instead.

That's the only thing that stood out for me in the source.

Is this going to get updated for use in 2.3?

[roryg]

@sonicpunk I'm working on a new version that you can download here https://github.com/roryg/ElementHelper/issues/31

Unfortunately things keep coming up that prevent me from finishing it so I can't say when it will be completely done. :smile:
