Magento how to remove a class from Layout - magento

I have add a body class to default layout (local.xml) and I want to remove it in some specific area. Tried to use removeBodyClass but Magento 1.7.0.2 shows me an error "Invalid method Mage_Page_Block_Html::removeBodyClass(Array..."
How to solve that?
addBodyClass is working, removeBodyClass cause problems. Please give me a solution. Thanks in Advance
<layout>
<default>
<reference name="root">
<action method="addBodyClass"><classname>halloweenClass</classname></action>
</reference>
</default>
</layout>

There are no class exits on removeBodyClass in magento CE 1.7.
and if want to do this then rewrite Mage_Page_Block_Html class then add function removeBodyClass
public function removeBodyClass($className)
{
$className = preg_replace('#[^a-z0-9]+#', '-', strtolower($className));
$this->setBodyClass(str_replace($className,' ',$this->getBodyClass()). ' ' . $className);
return $this;
}

Set template for block if there are blocks with the same name

I'm trying to change template for 'form' block in such layout:
<adminhtml_sales_order_create_index>
...
<reference name="root">
<block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create" name="content">
<block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create_form" template="sales/order/create/form.phtml" name="form">
...
<block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create_shipping_method" template="sales/order/create/abstract.phtml" name="shipping_method">
<block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create_shipping_method_form" template="sales/order/create/shipping/method/form.phtml" name="form" />
</block>
<block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create_billing_method" template="sales/order/create/abstract.phtml" name="billing_method">
<block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create_billing_method_form" template="sales/order/create/billing/method/form.phtml" name="form" />
</block>
<block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create_newsletter" template="sales/order/create/abstract.phtml" name="newsletter">
<block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create_newsletter_form" template="sales/order/create/newsletter/form.phtml" name="form" />
</block>
...
I do
<adminhtml_sales_order_create_index>
<reference name="form">
<action method="setTemplate">
<template>my_module/sales/order/create/form.phtml</template>
</action>
</reference>
</adminhtml_sales_order_create_index>
But this does not work. I think because block with name form exist in several places more after. I just want to change it in block type="adminhtml/sales_order_create_form". How can I do this?
#input
Rewrite of block is not the best appoach. It is better to observe 'core_block_abstract_to_html_before' event and change template there I think. Like:
if ($observer->getBlock() instanceof Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Sales_Order_Create_Form) {
$observer->getBlock()->setTemplate('my_module/newtemplate.phtml');
}
This works and is better because you will not get modules conflict if somebody else will rewrite this block. But I thought that may be possible on layout level..
Whilst not the prettiest solution I too do not know of a way of setting a template on a non unique form reference.
Warning this is pretty gross, and I am really not sure of the side affects and for some reason calling setTemplate in the constructor is not enough I guess this is being called at a earlier or later stage than the parents
class My_Module_Block_Adminhtml_Sales_Order_Create_Form extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Sales_Order_Create_Form
{
public function _toHtml()
{
$this->setTemplate('my_module/sales/order/create/form.phtml');
return parent::_toHtml();
}
}
Add the write to your Module
<blocks>
<adminhtml>
<rewrite>
<sales_order_create_form>My_Module_Block_Adminhtml_Sales_Order_Create_Form</sales_order_create_form>
</rewrite>
</adminhtml>
</blocks>
I really hope there is a better solution than this.
your right, thats the reason why its not working.
i can't think of a clean way because of this bad naming.
However there are several options that are not clean but will work:
1 option: copy the whole sales.xml into your own admin layout folder and change the template there directly.
2 option: "rewriting" "Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Sales_Order_Create_Form" and set the template from the code
3 option: subscribe to "adminhtml_block_html_before" and listen for the right block and change the template then.
However if you write a community module non of these options are really good.
if it is your own project i would go for option 1
hope that helps
For overwriting the form name form.phtml file from the billing_method you should do the following:
In the config.xml:
<core_block_abstract_to_html_before>
<observers>
<mymodule_core_block_abstract_to_html_before>
<class>MyModule_Model_MyPath</class>
<method>setTemplateFile</method>
</mymodule_core_block_abstract_to_html_before>
</observers>
</core_block_abstract_to_html_before>
and in your observer:
public function setTemplateFile(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
{
if ($observer->getBlock() instanceof Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Sales_Order_Create_Billing_Method_Form) {
$observer->getBlock()->setTemplate('mymodule/sales/order/create/billing/method/form.phtml');
}
}

Searchresult wrong. Mage::registry('current_layer') not set

We redesign a magento shop. That shop had a very costumized searchresult page.
Now, after the redesign, the search does not work anymore.
I broke down the problem to the List.php (Mage\Catalog\Block\Product\List.php) where the function _getProductCollection() is called to get the results. This function gets a layer $layer = $this->getLayer(); and there is the main difference to the old version:
public function getLayer()
{
$layer = Mage::registry('current_layer');
if ($layer) {
return $layer;
}
return Mage::getSingleton('catalog/layer');
}
In the old version the Mage::registry('current_layer'); is set. In the new version its not set! And when it is not set it returns a new one return Mage::getSingleton('catalog/layer'); with all the products in it.
I can't think any further. How could I find the place where this layer is set in the old version?
What else could I do?
The search layer model is registered by the catalogsearch/layer block, which is usually added to the search page by the catalogsearch.xml layout file :
<catalogsearch_result_index translate="label">
<label>Quick Search Form</label>
<reference name="root">
<action method="setTemplate"><template>page/3columns.phtml</template></action>
</reference>
<reference name="left">
<block type="catalogsearch/layer" name="catalogsearch.leftnav" after="currency" template="catalog/layer/view.phtml"/>
</reference>
<!-- ... -->
</catalogsearch_result_index>
As it has certainly gone missing, you should add it back to your layout.

Magento custom module admin block display

struggling getting access to an admin block ive created.
Ive created a module...it has many elements, all working. Ive got header includes added to certain admin pages no problem, using my adminhtml layout update xml file.
The issue seems to be it cant access/see my block...so muct be referencing wrong, even though ive been following the 'module creator' extension files.
Another silly issue i think, been at this too long! :)
First the code:
Mworkz/MyModuleName/Block/Adminhtml/MyBlock.php
class Mworkz_MyModuleName_Block_Adminhtml_MyModuleName extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid_Container
{
public function __construct()
{
var_dump('WE ARE IN THE ADMIN BLOCK!');exit;
$this->_controller = 'adminhtml_mymodulename';
$this->_blockGroup = 'mymodulename';
$this->_headerText = Mage::helper('mymodulename')->__('Item Manager');
$this->_addButtonLabel = Mage::helper('mymodulename')->__('Add Item');
parent::__construct();
}
}
My layout xml (this file works, and is referenced right, as my admin header includes work)
Should point out i have a custom tab and controller...all working.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<layout version="0.1.0">
<mymodulename_adminhtml_mymodulename_index>
<reference name="head">
<action method="addJs"><script>Mworkz/MyModuleName.js</script></action>
</reference>
<reference name="content">
<block type="mymodulename/adminhtml_mymodulename" name="mymodulename" ></block>
</reference>
</mymodulename_adminhtml_mymodulename_index>
</layout>
I expect to see the var_dump stmt ive inserted....but it doesnt display.
Thanks in advance...
file naming! Simple caps issue...
My block file was called '...Adminhtml/MyModuleName.php',
My block identifier inside the file was '...Adminhtml_Mymodulename {'
Another set of working code snippets for adminhtml block users i suppose!
Thanks

Magento Adding a Block to an index Action Page

I am creating a module that will have its own page at mysite.com/memymodule/index/index
I want to add functionality from a template file from at templates/me/template.phtml
I have an index controller like this:
<?php
class me_mymodule_IndexController extends Mage_Core_Controller_Front_Action {
public function indexAction() {
$this->loadLayout();
$this->renderLayout();
}
}
?>
I have a layout update mymodule.xml that looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<layout version="0.1.0">
<mymodule_index_index>
<reference name="content">
<block type="core/template" name="me.mymodule" template="me/template.phtml" />
</reference>
</mymodule_index_index>
</layout>
The frontName of the module is mymodule
When the page renders the content block is completely empty and the content of template.phtml is completely ignored.
Help much appreciated :-)
Try this Code within your Controller's Action -
var_dump(Mage::getSingleton('core/layout')->getUpdate()->getHandles());
exit("Your Layout Path is ".__LINE__." in ".__FILE__);
This code tells you about the Tag which you need to create within Layout.xml.
Also check Config.xml that the Layout Update Section is correctly defined or not.
Hope it'll be beneficial for you.
THANKS

How to Change page Title of Magento Module?

I have successfully install magento, but site title remain magento, I try many times but did not change that title?and did not change thing under the widget? so what is the procedures?
you can do it via layout files:
<reference name="head">
<action method="setTitle" translate="title"><title>Your Title</title></action>
</reference>
or via code by accessing head block element and calling setTitle('your title') method on it
$this->getLayout()->getBlock('head')->setTitle('your title');
grep for more references:
grep '>setTitle(' app/code/ -rsn
Put this function in Block page of that Module
public function _prepareLayout()
{
$this->pageConfig->getTitle()->set(__('Your Page Title'));
return parent::_prepareLayout();
}
