I'm trying to over-ride the default layout template of Categories list within the Module
mod_articles_categories
The reason for that is to be able to display the images associated with each category which is set in the params of each category.
The code that I found to show those images is
json_decode($item->params)->image
But it's not working, any ideas?
The "official" way would be to use something like this within the foreach ($list as $item) :
<?php
$params = new JRegistry();
$params->loadString($item->params);
$image = $params->get('image');
if ($image) : ?>
<img src="<?php echo $image; ?>" />
<?php endif; ?>
But you code should work as well. At least it does when I tested it locally. The code I posted would allow you to set a default value for the param. Like $params->get('image', 'foo/bar.png');. Other than that it does about the same.

I am using the Drupal 7 - view page with an attachment for displaying articles & featured articles, and i have some Add blocks displays in the right side bar in desktop view. When i move to mobile view( S & XS devices) i need to insert the adds in between view results.
Eg:
views-row-1
views-row-2
views-row-3
<Add Block>
views-row-4
views-row-5
views-row-6
<Add Block>
-------
Note : Ad Blocks created using Doubleclick for Publishers (DFP) module.
Please give me some suggestions on this.
Thanks in Advance.
Create a view field template for your view page. It will looks like this:
sites/all/themes/your_theme/templates/views-view-fields--view-page.tpl.php
views-view-fields--view-page.tpl.php template file will contains this:
$field):
if ($field->class == 'nothing') {
?>
<div class="mobile"> //Remove this class if not mobile version
<?php //this code is to add single addblock, but you can render the all adblock using foreach
$blockObject = block_load('dfp', 'box1');
$block = _block_get_renderable_array(_block_render_blocks(array($blockObject)));
$output = drupal_render($block);
print($output);
?>
</div>
<?php
}
if (!empty($field->separator)): ?>
<?php print $field->separator; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php print $field->wrapper_prefix; ?>
<?php print $field->label_html; ?>
<?php print $field->content; ?>
<?php print $field->wrapper_suffix; ?>
Finally, configure the block, to not show it in your view page (path):
your_domain/admin/structure/block/manage/dfp/block_machine_name/configure
See the last section : Show block on specific pages
I'm inserting an image in my template file as
<?php echo $this->Html->image('profile_picture.png', array('alt'=>'frame partner avatar'), array('id'=>'framePartnerAvatar')); ?>
Now I'm trying to give style to this image by using the id mentioned, but on checking through Firebug only source and alternate name is visible. Image id is not coming there.
You have to use the correct syntax:
<?php echo $this->Html->image(
'profile_picture.png',
array(
'alt'=>'frame partner avatar',
'id'=>'framePartnerAvatar'
)); ?>
See HtmlHelper::image()
According to the documentation the method used to create images requires two parameters. The first one being the source link and the second one being the options parameter
$this->Html->image('cake_logo.png', ['alt' => 'CakePHP']);
Your code should be something along the lines of this
$this->Html->image('profile_picture.png', array(
'alt'=>'frame partner avatar',
'id'=>'framePartnerAvatar')
);
$thumb_img = $this->Html->image('yourimage.png',array('alt'=>'yoursite.com','id'=>'yourId'));
Please ensure that all HTML attributes such as alt, id, class etc needs to be written within a single array, and not multiple arrays.
<?php echo $this->Html->image('profile_picture.png', array(
'alt'=>'frame partner avatar',
'id'=>'framePartnerAvatar'
)
); ?>
This will certainly generate the following HTML:
<img src="/img/profile_picture.png" alt='frame partner avatar' id='framePartnerAvatar' />
Peace! xD
I want to echo a full name from my MySQL database in my header. When that name is clicked in a list it filters all the records and displays all the records related to that name only. I managed to get the filter working, but not able to display the name in header.
<? $this->read('$jobs as $row'); ?>
<h1><?=$row['Employee']['first_name']?> <?=$row['Employee']['last_name']?>'s Jobs</h1>
<? $this->end(); ?>
If I'm not wrong, you are trying to retrieve this array, I'm assuing $jobs contains single row.
try this
<?php
if (isset($jobs)) {
foreach($jobs as $row){
if (isset($row['Employee']['last_name']))
$last = $row['Employee']['last_name'];
$first = 'N/A';
if (isset($row['Employee']['first_name']))
$first = $row['Employee']['first_name'];
?>
<h1><?php echo $first.' '. $last?>'s Jobs</h1>
<?php } }?>
OR
<h1><?php isset($jobs[0]['Employee']['first_name']) ? $jobs[0]['Employee']['first_name'] : 'N/A' .' '. isset($jobs[0]['Employee']['last_name']) ? $jobs[0]['Employee']['last_name'] : 'N/A'?>'s Jobs</h1>
This can be much more easily achieved through the use of virtual fields. The example in the Cake book is practically identical to your needs.
Just add this to your Employee model:
public $virtualFields = array(
'full_name' => 'CONCAT(Employee.first_name, " ", Employee.last_name)'
);
Now [Employee]['full_name'] can be used without having to use any logic.
Here's the link to the Cake book page covering virtual fields: http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/virtual-fields.html
On my Magento product page; when a product has multiple values for one custom attribute; instead of displaying the values it displays the text "array". It works fine with one value.
Thanks,
-Sam
You can do something like:
<?php
foreach($_product->getMetal() as $name => $value): ?>
<?php echo $name;?> = <?php echo $value;?>
<?php
endforeach; ?>
Magento takes advantage of PHP's magic getter/setter functionality (http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.overloading.php#object.get).
You can do a vardump($_product) to see the available attributes (they are stored in the _data array in the product). Then to retrieve one of them, you just remove the underscores and change the first letter of each word to uppercase.
EDIT:
If the above code doesn't output values, you can do this (which will tell you how to get to the value):
<?php
foreach($_product->getMetal() as $attribute): ?>
<?php var_dump($attribute); ?>
<?php
endforeach; ?>
I found this on Magento forums and it seems to work:
` getData('attribute_name')): ?>
getResource()->getAttribute('attribute_name')->getFrontend()->getValue($_product)) ?>
`
I can do this in any of my View file in Cake PHP:
<?php echo $this->Html->script('myjs.js', false); ?>
but if I do the same thing in my default view (default.ctp) then the JS files don't load i.e. they don't get echoed. I have tried moving includes above and below <?php echo $scripts_for_layout ?> in the default view but they still don't get printed:
<?php echo $scripts_for_layout ?>
<?php echo $this->Html->script('myjs.js'); ?>
<?php echo $this->Html->script('myjs.js'); ?>
<?php echo $scripts_for_layout ?>
Any ideas?
Thank you :).
with or without an extension - this is not the reason why the script do not get echoed,
as mensch mentioned before it makes no difference because of:
source of html helper cakephp 2
if (strpos($url, '?') === false && substr($url, -3) !== '.js') {
$url .= '.js';
}
the reason is:
you have already inserted this script inside your view,
cake checks if the script is already inserted on the page
options - 'once' - Whether or not the script should be checked for uniqueness. If true scripts will only be included once, use false to allow
the same script to be included more than once per request.
by default the value of once is set to TRUE
remove the script from your view first and then try it with or without '.js'
P.S.: why the petervaz answer has worked for you:
because this check:
if ($options['once'] && isset($this->__includedScripts[$url])) {
return null;
}
made before check for file extension
so isset(__includedScripts['myjs']) == false // because first key was __includedScripts['myjs.js']
and you've got your script included
I have a project with scripts added just before $scripts_for_layout and they are displayed fine. The only difference is that I'm not adding the extension .js to the call, like this:
default.ctp:
<head>
<?php echo $this->Html->charset(); ?>
<title>
<?php echo "Site > $title_for_layout"; ?>
</title>
<?php
echo $this->Html->script('jquery-1.6.4');
echo $this->Html->script('jquery-ui-1.8.16.custom.min');
echo $this->Html->script('mercado');
echo $scripts_for_layout;
?>
</head>
Another thing I'd DEFINITELY recommend is to check that loading your JS in a view is 100% OK with everything.
Do NOT use $this->Html->script if you are unsure about:
--- the dependency of scripts on each other
--- the dependency of some plugins on other scripts
--- how many different layouts and/or views you want to use in the future.
For example, some plugins use jQuery but they require jQuery to be loaded BEFORE the plugin itself.
So if you put jQuery in a view or layout, the plugin's JS loads before jQuery and plugin may not work. If you want to make sure some script loads first, you can try this:
in your app/View/Helper/AppHelper.php:
class AppHelper extends Helper {
public $helpers = array('Html', 'Session');
public function beforeRender($viewFile){
echo $this->Html->script('jquery', array('inline'=>false));
}
}
Therefore you don't have to include jQuery in multiple views and it loads first.
$scripts_for_layout in a layout is a placeholder for all the scripts included in views, so if you include it or don't won't have any effect if you load scripts directly in the default.ctp.
That being said, adding the extension or leaving it out of the $this->Html->script() call shouldn't make a difference. What could be the case is that the HtmlHelper isn't called correctly (it's called by default in Cake 2.0), but you should be receiving error messages. Is debug set to 2 in /app/Config/core.php?
