I use a 3rd party module for the Customer Service of my website.
In this module, there is a dedicate page to create a ticket.
I try to add a cms page (already create in Pages of Prestashop) in the left of the form of this page.
For that, I create a function in modules/{THEmodule}/controllers/front/function.php
public function getFAQ($id_cms, $id_lang = null, $id_shop = null){
if (is_null($id_lang)) {
$id_lang = (int)Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT');
}
if (is_null($id_shop)) {
$id_shop = (int)Configuration::get('PS_SHOP_DEFAULT');
}
$sql = new DbFAQ();
$sql->select('content');
$sql->from('cms_lang');
$sql->where('id_cms = .(int)$id_cms.' AND 'id_lang = .(int)$id_lang.' AND 'id_shop = .(int)$id_shop');
return Db::getInstance()->executeS($sql);
}
Then I call the function in .tpl
<div id="support-getFAQ">
{$getFAQ=12} {* 12 is the id of the cms page that I want display *}
</div>
But when I check the page, nothing is display, so I guess is not the good way.
Could someone help me?
Thanks to #marcin-jaworski to give me the way.
The solution is simple.
No need to add function, just write in tpl:
{assign var=new_smarty_var value=CMS::getCMSContent(12)}
{$new_smarty_var.content nofilter}
Don't forget "nofilter" to print html.
Because of good practise you should assign smarty variable in your module controller or display function for hook.

Displaying content on the front office
You can get CMS content by use function already made in CMS class (/classes/CMS.php):
public static function getCMSContent($id_cms, $id_lang = null, $id_shop = null)
public static function getCMSPages($id_lang = null, $id_cms_category = null, $active = true, $id_shop = null)
Also i have little trick witch you can use in .tpl
{assign var=new_smarty_var value=(CMS::getOneCMS(11, $language.id)}
{$new_smarty_var.content}

I have a module that creates pages in Magento. Since I can't duplicate the functionality of the module in a CMS page, I want to convert the module to produce pages that use the CMS model for its page output. I was looking in the Controller and this code looks promising, but I not sure what I would change. Can anyone help me?
// Setup layout handles
$this->getLayout()->getUpdate()
->addHandle('default')
->addHandle('custompage_map');
$this->addActionLayoutHandles();
$this->loadLayoutUpdates();
$this->generateLayoutXml()->generateLayoutBlocks();
foreach (array('catalog/session', 'checkout/session') as $class_name) {
$storage = Mage::getSingleton($class_name);
if ($storage) {
$this->getLayout()->getMessagesBlock()->addMessages($storage->getMessages(true));
}
}
// Render our layout
$this->renderLayout();
}
Take a look #
/app/code/core/Mage/Cms/controllers/IndexController.php
Replace your controller method with
public function noRouteAction($coreRoute = null)
{
$pageId = {cms page key};
if (!Mage::helper('cms/page')->renderPage($this, $pageId)) {
$this->_forward('defaultNoRoute');
}
}
I'm making a custom template form joomla 2.5, and one of the goals for the development is to include a banner after each featured article iteration.
After a long research I can render a banner into /template_name/html/com_content/featured/default_item.php with the following code:
$document = JFactory::getDocument();
$renderer = $document->loadRenderer('modules');
$position = "nota";
$options = array('style' => 'raw');
echo $renderer->render($position, $options, null);
But the issue is that each iteration resets the banner list so I have the same banner repeated with each featured article.
I tried to include the banner module using the same code in /template_name/html/com_content/featured/default.php without success. Lately I'd try with <jdoc:include type="modules" name="nota" style="raw" /> and it didn't works too, so I will appreciate any help to solve this point.
Thanks in advance.
You can solve this in two ways.
The right way
Copy and rename the banner module (fx. to mybanners), change the getList() method in the helper file to retrieve different banners on each call. This could fx. be:
class modMybannersHelper
{
static function &getList(&$params)
{
static $index = 0;
JModelLegacy::addIncludePath(JPATH_ROOT.'/components/com_banners/models', 'BannersModel');
$document = JFactory::getDocument();
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$keywords = explode(',', $document->getMetaData('keywords'));
$model = JModelLegacy::getInstance('Banners', 'BannersModel', array('ignore_request'=>true));
$model->setState('filter.client_id', (int) $params->get('cid'));
$model->setState('filter.category_id', $params->get('catid', array()));
$model->setState('list.limit', 1);
$model->setState('list.start', $index++);
$model->setState('filter.ordering', $params->get('ordering'));
$model->setState('filter.tag_search', $params->get('tag_search'));
$model->setState('filter.keywords', $keywords);
$model->setState('filter.language', $app->getLanguageFilter());
$banners = $model->getItems();
$model->impress();
return $banners;
}
}
This is just a sketch; you still need to handle the case of $index being greater than the number of records.
The hacky way
The retrieval code has only one port open to inject conditions - the documents's keywords.
So you could (in your template file) store the original keywords an replace them with a keyword to identify a banner. The banner must have the same keyword in that case.
$document = JFactory::getDocument();
$keywords = $document->getMetaData('keywords');
$renderer = $document->loadRenderer('modules');
$position = "nota";
$options = array('style' => 'raw');
$document->setMetaData('keywords', 'banner_key');
echo $renderer->render($position, $options, null);
$document->setMetaData('keywords', $keywords);
Either way, caching may prevent that from work, so you might have to turn it off (I didn't check that).
Because pagination is using getUserStateFromRequest method to get the limit and limitstart variable, I'm having a problem where as I navigate from one component to another, I'm shown a no items found message.
To clarify, I have a products component that has 3 pages worth of products listed. Then I have a branches component with 2 pages worth of branch information. So if I navigate to the third page in the products list, and then go to the branches component, nothing is displayed.
Has anyone any idea how to stop this from happening? Any way to maybe clear the session data?
What I ended up doing was this,
in line 624 in libraries/joomla/application/application.php file I added the following lines
$this->setUserState('option','default');
$curr_comp = JRequest::getCmd( 'option' );;
if($this->getUserState('option') != $curr_comp)
{
$this->setUserState($option . 'limitstart',0);
$this->setUserState('option',$curr_comp);
}
so the whole function reads this,
public function getUserStateFromRequest($key, $request, $default = null, $type = 'none')
{
$this->setUserState('option','default');
$curr_comp = JRequest::getCmd( 'option' );
if($this->getUserState('option') != $curr_comp)
{
$this->setUserState($option . 'limitstart',0);
$this->setUserState('option',$curr_comp);
}
$cur_state = $this->getUserState($key, $default);
$new_state = JRequest::getVar($request, null, 'default', $type);
// Save the new value only if it was set in this request.
if ($new_state !== null)
{
$this->setUserState($key, $new_state);
}
else
{
$new_state = $cur_state;
}
return $new_state;
}
This seems to be working fine at the moment. But please test before implementing on a live site
To prevent editing the core files, but with the effect limited to your extension (so other extensions could load at the wrong page, but not yours), and if your model extends modellist, override the getStart() method:
public function getStart()
{
$store = $this->getStoreId('getstart');
$input = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
$start = $limitstart = $input->getInt('limitstart', 0);
$this->setState('list.start', $limitstart); // maybe redundant
$limit = $this->getState('list.limit');
$total = $this->getTotal();
if ($start > $total - $limit)
{
$start = max(0, (int) (ceil($total / $limit) - 1) * $limit);
}
// Add the total to the internal cache.
$this->cache[$store] = $start;
return $this->cache[$store];
}
If you want a solution that works system-wide and for all extensions, you should be able to override modellist with your implementation in a plugin. Start here.
This is an old question, but I just had the same issue as the OP, but in my case with Joomla 3.4.3.
After a lot of digging and testing, I discovered a solution for this that doesn't involve any plugin or core change:
If you put limitstart=0 in the URL, the pagination will restart for that page, and this solves the problem between menus.
The way to implement this could be either with javascript, or by overriding the menu module, I chose the override:
I just need this in some menus, so I placed a CSS class into the
menu link (edit the menu, and in the "Link Type" tab, place the CSS
class in the "Link CSS Style" field), in my case it was "
video-area" (without the quotes).
Add override (add the module to the html folder of your template,
in my case it was the menu module, so it was a matter of adding the
mod_menu folder: templatefolder/html/mod_menu)
In the override of the component part of the module
(default_component.php), check to see if we have the CSS class, if
so, add the extra query to the URL (I edited case 0):
case 0: $paginationLinks = ""; if(isset($class) && strpos($class, '
video-area') !== false){ $paginationLinks =
"?limitstart=0&limit=12"; } ?><a <?php echo $class; ?>href="<?php
echo $item->flink; ?><?php echo $paginationLinks;?>" <?php echo
$title; ?>><span><?php echo $linktype; ?></span></a><?php break;
That's it! it solved my problem, and even the pagination links have the extra query :)
BONUS: notice that I have &limit=12, this changes the limit for the pagination into 12 per page, without any extra code!, (before, I had a lot of code to implement this, and by adding this to the menu it calculates the correct page number and totals, and filters the query, nice one Joomla!)
Can anyone please help me with the process flow through which the Joomla Itemid parameter ends up being the highlighted menu item?
I have embedded a 3rd party application in Joomla and by temporarily changing the php environment within the application.
I am able to get joomla html and insert the 3rd party html by replacing a token.
Simplified Code:
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'GET' ) {
$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] = '';
}
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] = '/joomla/index.php?view=mycom&option=com_mycom&Itemid=103';
$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] = '/joomla/index.php';
$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] = 'view=mycom&option=com_mycom&Itemid=103';
ob_start();
require_once '/joomla/index.php';
$joomlaHTML = ob_get_clean();
echo str_replace($replacementToken, $thirdPartyHTML, $joomlaHTML);
In v1.5.x, the menu item with ID 103 is properly highlighted but in v2.5.6, it isn't and the Home item is always highlighted. I think it used to be highlighted correctly in v1.6.x and earlier versions of 2.5.x as well but not sure.
I wanted to find how the process flows (where this is set) so I can see what tweaks I need to make.
DELETED WRONG INFO
Thanks Dayo! you saved my day with this:
// force highlight the external url menu item
$Itemid = JRequest::getVar('Itemid');
$menu = JSite::getMenu();
$menu->setActive($Itemid);
I don't fully understand the breadcrumb part, but I managed to get it working by editing my component's controller.php to read:
// No direct access to this file
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
// force highlight the external url menu item
$Itemid = JRequest::getVar('Itemid');
$menu = JSite::getMenu();
$menu->setActive($Itemid);
// force fix the breadcrumb
$app = JFactory::getApplication('site');
$pathway =& $app->getPathway();
$bcrumbs = &JPathway::getInstance('site');
// import Joomla controller library
jimport('joomla.application.component.controller');
/**
* MyCom Component Controller
*/
class MyComController extends JController
{
}
Look in the following File
Check the
/modules/mod_menu/mod_menu.php
File and you will see two functions has been called "getActive" and "getDefault"
Which can be find in following file
/libraries/joomla/application/menu.php
I think it can be customized easily now
I am trying to create a a box in a template in Joomla! that will display all of the keywords and link them to their appropriate search page. I have a menu item set, however, I don't want to hard-code the menu item into the template, so I want to use the JRoute object to generate the SEF url.
I am using this function:
JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_search&searchword='.$keyword);
or this:
JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_search&view=search&searchword='.$keyword);
however, this generates a url like this:
/component/search/?searchword=africa
when it ought to create a search url like this:
/searchmenuitem?searchword=africa
I have searched extensivly online and havn't found a solution to this problem. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Ok, so some additional information for you.. I am only experiencing the problem when I try and route the URL from a template in com_content. If I try and route the url from a template in com_search everything works perfectly. So, what is it about com_content that is causing this to not work properly?
thanks!

In joomla administration page go to the menu item you've chosen for the search results page and get the id of that menu item (itemId).
Than you can try using:
JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_search&view=search&Itemid=256&searchword=asdsadasdsa');
or even
JRoute::_('index.php?Itemid=256&searchword=asdsadasdsa');
both should result in: /searchmenuitem.html?searchword=asdsadasdsa
EDIT:
To make it more comforable you could add itemId as a param to your template.
There is another way, where u can get the itemId from the database (this method is required on multilingual websites). Let me know if you want it.
EDIT2:
Here it is:
$db =& JFactory::getDBO();
$lang =& JFactory::getLanguage()->getTag();
$uri = 'index.php?option=com_search&view=search';
$db->setQuery('SELECT id FROM #__menu WHERE link LIKE '. $db->Quote( $uri .'%' ) .' AND language='. $db->Quote($lang) .' LIMIT 1' );
$itemId = ($db->getErrorNum())? 0 : intval($db->loadResult());
I use this kind of method to get a menu item id of specific component and view
function getSearchItemId() {
$menu = &JSite::getMenu();
$component = &JComponentHelper::getComponent('com_search');
//get only com_search menu items
$items = $menu->getItems('componentid', $component->id);
foreach ($items as $item) {
if (isset($item->query['view']) && $item->query['view'] === 'search') {
return $item->id;
}
}
return false;
}
Then I use this method to get the sef url
function getRouteUrl($route)
{
jimport('joomla.application.router');
// Get the global site router.
$config = &JFactory::getConfig();
$router = JRouter::getInstance('site');
$router->setMode($config->getValue('sef', 1));
$uri = &$router->build($url);
$path = $uri->toString(array('path', 'query', 'fragment'));
return $path;
}
This just works in any template.
use like this
$itemid = getSearchItemId();
//returns valid sef url
$url = getRouteUrl('index.php?Itemid='.$itemid);
You really do not need to do sql on the menu table to get ids. Just search the menu object.
Try to create new menu in the joomla backend called for instance 'hidden-menu'. It will never be shown in the front. But it will be used by JRoute Then add to this menu new menuitem called 'searchmenuitem' with link to com_search. That is all. Now you can call
JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_search&view=search&searchword=asdsadasdsa');
and it will be ceonverted into this
/searchmenuitem.html?searchword=asdsadasdsa
