hook ProcessPageList "showRootPage"

[bernhard]

hi all,

i managed to hook ProcessPageList::find to return the right set of pages but i don't know to set "showRootPage" to false via hook

if i set this line to "false" it works as expected, but i want to set this based on the role of the logged in user and of course i don't want to hack the core:

https://github.com/ryancramerdesign/ProcessWire/blob/master/wire/modules/Process/ProcessPageList/ProcessPageList.module#L61

I'm making my first steps how to hook into methods but i don't know how to set properties of the class via hook in general?

thanks for your help!

In ProcessPageList::find you can set showRootPage to false like this (trial and error):

$event->object->set('showRootPage', false);

// or this:
// $event->object->showRootPage = false;
