New in Drupal Theming, I've a code where node.tpl file is updated (changed) but the contact page doesn't take the modifications. Any help would be appreciate.
In the node.tpl file, somebody add this code :
<?php
include('includes/right_menu.inc');
?>
Ok, it seems not logical but...
I see this include in any node page excepted for contact page.
Had I to make a specific node--contact.tpl.php or other ?
Thank you
If I am not mistaken, the contact page is not displaying a node, but a form. Therefore, the node.tpl template file is not used in this context.

I am trying to override the front page node, however after following the guide from the official site, it's not working.
Guide: https://www.drupal.org/node/1585528
I have taken node.tpl.php and renamed it to node--front.tpl.php and made changes to the layout, saved and cleared cache. The changes are not being displayed.
Now if I edit node.tpl.php directly it shows the changes, anyone know what I am doing wrong to override specific node templates?
EDIT:
I want to move the title below the image being displayed in the front page.
See below: Moving the title block under the content block, moves the title down as I want it to do, however how do I specify this for just the front page and not all nodes? (renaming node.tpl.php to node--front.tpl.php does not work as mentioned above)
In node.tpl.php: (title block)
<?php print render($title_prefix); ?>
<?php if (!$page): ?>
<h2<?php print $title_attributes; ?>>
<?php print $title; ?>
</h2>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php print render($title_suffix); ?>
(content block)
<div class="content clearfix"<?php print $content_attributes; ?>>
<?php
// We hide the comments and links now so that we can render them later.
hide($content['comments']);
hide($content['links']);
print render($content);
?>
To override the node template for particular node, you need to override the default node.tpl.php. For this copy the existing node.tpl.php file to node--{node_id}.tpl.php.
If you want to override the page template only for front page then you can create page--front.tpl.php file and copy the page.tpl.php file and then modify it as per your requirement.
Still you have issues, then use hook_preprocess_page() in template.php and use dpm() function to find the theme_suggestions that will give the sequence of execution of templates file.
you can use node-{nodeid}.tpl.php
It may help you.

Print links are missing on my custom module which creates a custom form. Print links are also missing on my custom views. I searched the internet and people pointed me to configuration menu for print module to look there and check "Show link in system(non content) pages. I did that and I even activated it for all pages with no luck.
What am I doing wrong?
As far as I know, the Print module only outputs links on node pages. I also found the following on the module page
This module allows you to generate the following printer-friendly
versions of any node.
What I sometimes do to solve this is to make a custom block, which takes the page URL and prepend /print. E.g.
<?php $current_url = getenv('REQUEST_URI'); ?>
<img src='/sites/all/modules/print/icons/print_icon.png'>
<a href='/print<?php print $current_url; ?> '>Printer-friendly version</a>

I'm working to customize liferay's Calendar portlet and have created a hook for this.
I want to show all the "Related Assets" associated with a Calendar Event directly in the list page itself where all the Events are displayed instead of the Event's detail view page.
Currently liferay shows the "Related Assets" only when we click on the Event to view the details of that Event.
Can anyone help me?
Environment: Liferay 6.1
Thanks a lot
Sabrina
I assume you already have liferay's source code and you know how to create a hook.
The JSPs you would be modifying would be in this path:
portal-web/docroot/html/portlet/calendar
So here are some steps to help you solve your query:
You need to modify the event_iterator.jspf: row.addText(event.getTitle(), rowURL);
You have to adjust the following code taken from view_event.jsp in event_iterator.jspf.
<%
AssetEntry layoutAssetEntry = AssetEntryLocalServiceUtil.getEntry(CalEvent.class.getName(), event.getEventId());
%>
<%-- <liferay-util:buffer> is a tag which stores all that is written inside
its body in a single variable string, in this case "relatedAssetsLinksBuffer"
--%>
<liferay-util:buffer var="relatedAssetsLinksBuffer">
<c:if test="<%= enableRelatedAssets %>">
<%=event.getTitle() %>
<div class="entry-links">
<liferay-ui:asset-links
assetEntryId="<%= layoutAssetEntry.getEntryId() %>"
/>
</div>
</c:if>
</liferay-util:buffer>
Now the line in step-1 becomes: row.addText(relatedAssetsLinksBuffer, rowURL);
I have not tried this but I think it would work or will atleast give you some help in solving your query.
Tip for Hooks (might be useful in future):
Liferay follows a convention in storing its JSPs, so for custom-jsps Hook (i.e. a hook created for modifying liferay's JSP) you just need to search for that particular JSP & modify it.
For Eg: You wanted to modify the first page of calendar portlet. So liferay portlet's first page is always view.jsp located in the folder with the same name as the portlet-name in this case "Calendar" and view.jsp will contain some tags like <%# include /> or <liferay-util:include /> which would include other files to show the content. So you can always start with a view.jsp and navigate ahead. By the way the names of the JSPs are also most of the time self-explanatory.
Hope this helps.
Is there a way I can fully customize a page in Drupal? I don't want the Drupal header or any other HTML generated by Drupal to show up, but I want to be able to access the Drupal functions.
Basically you want a new page template (as opposed to a node template). This does not quite work out of the box in Drupal 7 so there are a few steps:
Step 1
Create a new content type for this specially themed page, call it "special" or whatever...
Step 2
Add this code to your theem's template.php file. (Replace "yourthemename" in the code below with your theme's machine name, that is to say the name of your theme folder in /sites/all/)
function yourthemename_preprocess_page(&$vars) {
if (isset($vars['node']->type)) {
$vars['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = 'page__' . $vars['node']->type;
}
}
Step 3
Create a new page template in your theme folder and name it after the new content type. so for example: page--special.tpl.php and "special" being the name of the content type. Customize away!
Step 4
Clear cache
Step 5
Create a new peice of content using your new content type -- it will be in the design of your new page template.
The end result will be like having a completely separate theme but staying within your existing theme.
Note, I wrote a blog post on how to do this for Drupal 6 but if you read down the comments, there are ideas and links how do this for D7 but basically what I have said here.
http://highrockmedia.com/blog/creating-custom-content-type-page-templates-drupal-php
You can run an alernative page.tpl.php file. Eg. page--front.tpl.php
Not sure it's the best way to do this but it will work. You can strip anything you don't want out of the file so it is totally different to other pages.
Drupal is pretty flexible:
<?php
$json = array(
'body' => 'This is the body of the page.',
'title' => 'This is the page title',
);
return drupal_json_output($json);
?>
How to generate 'a href="javascript:void(0)"' like link in CakePHP?
I make an application, the content will insert into the editor textarea when user click a list of image. I add a class to these images and write some code in the javascript file. Everything is going well.
But the link of the image is a URL address, but not 'href="javascript:void(0)' like URL. Anyone could tell me how to make it in CakePHP?
Thanks in advance!
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'/path/to/image/',
'javascript:void(0)'
);
?>
You can either set a path to the image or use the Html helper to generate the image tag code. The second parameter will set the href.
Don't believe there is any dynamic way, however when you are creating your form element you can set it in the options array 'href' => 'javascript:void(0)'
