Event: OnBeforeManagerPageInit¶

Fires right before a Manager controller runs, after the permission check.

Service: 2 - Manager Access Events
Group: System

Event Parameters¶

Name	Description
action	The route or action to load in the current namespace
controller	The same value as `action`
namespace	The namespace (as a string) for the current namespace
namespace_path	The core path for the namespace

On Manager error pages these keys are absent from the controller config — the Error controller is created with a message (and errors) only. Check them with isset() before use.

Remarks¶

Previous event	OnManagerPageInit
Next event	OnManagerPageBeforeRender
File	core/src/Revolution/modManagerController.php
Class	abstract class MODX\Revolution\modManagerController
Method	public function render()

Example¶

<?php
$eventName = $modx->event->name;
switch($eventName) {
    case 'OnBeforeManagerPageInit':
        print_r($action);
        break;
}
