I need my nodes to have multiple aliases for example www.example.com/1/title-of-node. should be opened by www.example.com/2/title-of-node or www.example.com/3/title-of-node. Does there exist any functionality for this in drupal ? Pathauto doesn't provide this.
for this you have to create a custom module i am writting pesudo code bellow
step1 : create a custom trigger in module
step2 : write db_insert query in a function which will be call just after a node is saved in trigger
db_insert code is given is below
$nid = db_insert('url_alias')
->fields(array(
'alias' => 'another alise',
'source' => 'node/'.$node->id,
))
->execute();
in drupal url_alise table is reposible to keep alise with respect to node.

I am using TreeBehavior for generate tree structure using custom finder treeList custom finder
$this->Categories->find('treeList',['spacer' => '__']);
Now how can i add some conditions like "isactive" =>true. I have checked the documentation there are only 3 param. unable to find the condition param
Thanks in advance
That's less of a "custom" finder, more of a built-in one, given that it ships with the CakePHP core.
That being said, conditions can be added the same way as with any other finder, that is, either via the conditions option passed to the second argument of the find() method, or via the query builders where() method.
Quote from the docs:
Once you’ve started a query you can use the Query Builder interface to
build more complex queries, adding additional conditions, limits, or
include associations using the fluent interface.
// In a controller or table method.
$query = $articles->find('all')
->where(['Articles.created >' => new DateTime('-10 days')])
->contain(['Comments', 'Authors'])
->limit(10);
You can also provide many commonly used options to find(). This can
help with testing as there are fewer methods to mock:
// In a controller or table method.
$query = $articles->find('all', [
'conditions' => ['Articles.created >' => new DateTime('-10 days')],
'contain' => ['Authors', 'Comments'],
'limit' => 10
]);

I want to store content from my Backend in another database.
So let's say i have this in my Backend:
How can i save the value (e.g. the float value in the picture) in another database?
The reason why i need this, is, because i have another database, which is being used for some dynamic content loaded onto my Website with PHP.
Hopefully, someone has an idea and can help me :)
I would use either a hook which updates the foreign database with the value which is triggered if something is changed in the TYPO3 backend or I would use a scheduler task / command controller which is triggered by CLI and runs all x minutes and changes the values in the database.
There are several ways to achieve that. I just assume that you want to create relations between the tt_content table of TYPO3 and some external table in a different database or even different storage engine (web-service, file-system, ...).
In that case you could extend the TCA of the tt_content table by an additional property, let's call it external_reference. The backend form then should provide an additional selector field that allows to chose entities of the external data-source.
The following example assumes that your extension key is called my_extension, this has to be adjusted of course to the actual naming.
You can do so by putting the following configuration to your extension in the folder typo3conf/ext/my_extension/Configuration/TCA/Overrides/tt_content.php:
<?php
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addTCAcolumns(
'tt_content',
[
'external_reference' => [
'exclude' => 1,
'label' => 'External Source',
'config' => [
'type' => 'select',
'items' => [
['-- none --', 0]
],
'itemsProcFunc' => ExternalReferenceSelection::class . '->render',
'default' => 0,
]
],
]
);
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addToAllTCAtypes(
'tt_content',
'external_reference'
);
Then you have to implement the selector and the retrieval from the external source, like e.g.
<?php
class ExternalReferenceSelection
{
public function render(array $parameters)
{
$references = ExternalReferenceRepository::instance()->findAll();
foreach ($references as $reference) {
$parameters['items'][] = [
$reference->getTitle(),
$reference->getIdentifier()
];
}
}
}
To be able to persist the selected reference, you have to extend the SQL schema of tt_content as well in typo3conf/ext/my_extension/ext_tables.sql
#
# Table structure for table 'tt_content'
#
CREATE TABLE tt_content (
external_reference int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL
);
The database schema is updated by invoking the database analyzer in the TYPO3 Install Tool, or by (re-)installing the extension in the Extension Manager.
I am trying to add a function to that strips the html from a field in drupal views. I found a function for sql server called "udf_StripHTML" that does that.
http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2007/06/16/sql-server-udf-user-defined-function-to-strip-html-parse-html-no-regular-expression/
I am using the following code:
/**
* Implements hook_views_query_alter().
*/
function cviews_views_query_alter(&$view, &$query) {
// Add a strip html tags from content.
$fields = array('field_data_body.body_value');
foreach ($query->where as $key1 => $value) {
foreach ($value['conditions'] as $key2 => $coditions) {
if (in_array($coditions['field'], $fields)) {
$query->where[$key1]['conditions'][$key2]['field'] = 'dbo.udf_StripHTML(' . $coditions['field'] . ')';
}
}
}
}
When views module converts the query object to a string the field become
from:
'dbo.udf_StripHTML(field_data_body.body_value)';
to:
[dbo].[udf_StripHTMLfield_data_body.body_value]
My question is, how can I add a function there?
Thank you,
You are going way too deep here friend. I'm going to assume that you're using Drupal 7, but for Drupal 8 this should be similar (since views is in core for both).
A few things about your approach:
That function is a user defined function which means that it needs to be defined at a much lower-level (in the SQL database) before you can use it in your query.
This is a red-herring approach, however, because you don't need to even touch the SQL to accomplish what you want (you can do this with PHP with strip_tags!)
You don't need a query alter hook here (we don't need to go to the database to do this). You could do this with one of the preprocess or field hooks from the field API or the views API using the function linked in my previous point.
Even better, you don't even have to touch the code to accomplish this. You can do it right in the Drupal UI.
Under the field settings for the view, select rewrite results and then Strip HTML tags. Presto, no more HTML tags in that field.

Here is the solution that worked for me:
// Traverse through the 'where' part of the query.
foreach ($query->where as &$condition_group) {
foreach ($condition_group['conditions'] as &$condition) {
if (in_array($condition['field'], $fields)) {
$value = $condition['value'];
$field = $condition['field'];
$condition = array(
'value' => array(),
'field' => t('dbo.udf_StripHTML(!field) like \'#value\'', array(
'!field' => $field,
'#value' => $value)),
'operator' => 'formula',);
}
}
}
In Rails, we can specify the allowed parameters to be used in the controller when saving data. So, with params being the submitted data, I can do this:
params.require(:person).permit(:name, :age)
Which will ensure that the :person key is present and will filter out anything that is not a person's :name or :age.
Is there any way in CakePHP to accomplish this?
EDIT: I know I can write PHP, I want to know if there's a Cake component / plugin that already does this.
Something in this PHP way:
// submited data
$this->request->data['Person'] = array(
'name' => 'Salines',
'age' => '41',
'job' => 'Web Developer'
);
// check if isset and filter out anything that is not a person's name or age
if(isset($this->request->data['Person']))
{
$permit = array('name' => '','age' => '');
$this->request->data['Person'] = array_intersect_key($this->request->data['Person'],$permit);
}
//and return $this->request->data like
array(
'Person' => array(
'name' => 'Salines',
'age' => '41'
)
);
I'm looking for a Cake-provided solution (if there is one)
Well, define "cake-provided", you mean by the framework itself? No, the core doesn't have this functionality but there are two plugins.
For Cake3: Plum Search
For Cake2 & 3: CakeDC Search
For Cake3 I would go for Plum-Search, it is written by the same person as the initial code of the other plugin but a complete rewrite and makes a better use of Cake3.
Next time you ask name your exact Cake version.
Both plugins implement the PRG pattern but don't explicitly allow or deny query parameters. They'll only grab the parameters you specified in your filter declaration and turn them into the request. Validate and save to exclude unwanted fields.
Make a url link like this
echo $this->Html->url(array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'hello','par1'=>23,'par2'=>'sud'));
In hello function in users controller
pr($this->params->named['par1']);
pr($this->params->named['par2']);
I retrieve content types with the following code
$form['ct'] = array(
'#type' => 'checkboxes',
'#options' => node_type_get_names(),
'#title' => t('Hangi tür içerikler hakkında bilgi almak istersiniz?'),
);
And It gives the following output

And when I press Create new Account button, the POST Array is so :
http://i.stack.imgur.com/BtxhC.png
My Question is How can I insert into database these values and read?
There are two ways of saving this data and associates with user ID ($user->uid).
Adding a new field for users from 'admin/config/people/accounts/fields'. Say the new field name is 'ct' and it is a list type field. In hook form_alter you can assign this options to 'ct'. Drupal will take care of saving the data.
You can create separate table to keep this information and use db_insert function in hook hook_user_update. To retrieve this information you need to use db_query in hook_user_load.
