My problem is i want to add '.html' extension to my every blog post. For example right now i have a blog post url 'http://www.indu.com/blog/-/blogs/creating-a-custom-portlet-in-liferay' and what i want is 'http://www.indu.com/blog/-/blogs/creating-a-custom-portlet-in-liferay.html'
I would be grateful if any one can help?
I wonder why would you want this.
Anyways, I think you can change the urlTitle field of BlogsEntry and append .html to the string. May be use a service-wrapper-hook to append .html to the urlTitle whenever a blog is created or updated.
Or you can even use a ModelListener if it exists for BlogsEntry hook to update the blog's urlTitle by using onCreate & onUpdate methods.
Edit
The urlTitle field is present in the BlogsEntry table.
You can access this in java with the following methods:
BlogsEntry blog = BlogsEntryLocalServiceUtil.getBlogsEntry(90989); // retrieves the blog-entry
String blogUrlTitle = blog.getUrlTitle();
blog.setUrlTitle(blogUrlTitle + ".html"); // this would set the string
You can have a check for the blogUrlTitle so that you don't have repeated .html appended to the string:
if (!blogUrlTitle.contains(".html")) { // append only if the title does not contain `.html`
blog.setUrlTitle(blogUrlTitle + ".html");
}
You can refine your code as you like, the above is just a guide-line.
As a side-note, I would always try to reason with the client why they want something, this helps not only to fend-off bad-change-requests but also helps in giving an alternative to the client (which is less taxing on the developers like us ;-) ). In most cases this helps to understand the client's business better & provide better returns.

I'm working with a component bitrix:catalog (which is standard one) and faced an issue. I want to add some extra GET parameters to switch view mode. I think there is no need to rewrite whole component to make such switcher, so I added extra keys in result_modifier in a way similar to:
$this->__component->arResultCacheKeys = array_merge($this->__component->arResultCacheKeys, array('key1', "key2"));
Earlier in the same result_modifier I perform adding those extra keys in $arResult['key1'] etc. They seem to be correctly saved, but only for current inquiry such as ?view=list or view=card, that means only one variable value is saved and it does not react on changing of GET parameter. Is there simple and correct way to make that component to cache and to output data based on GET variable? The only idea which came to my mind is to rewrite component by adding extra parameter and checking of GET, but I think there must more simple and correct solution to make in via template. Human Readable Links are turned on. And I want to have auto-cash being turned on as well. If I turn it off it starts working as planned.
One of possible solutions is to rewrite it cache by SetTemplateCachedData but it still seems to me rough and incorrect way for such simple task.
Bitrix masters please help me to find correct solution, google can't help at the moment.
If you use standard bitrix:catalog component, you may be use standart bitrix:catalog.section. In that component.php used standart component cache.
That means you can describe additional parametr in you custom .parameters.php, and set it in bitrix:catalog.section params.
Standart component cache set cacheId based on arParams.
So you include component should look like this:
$APPLICATION->IncludeComponent(
"bitrix:catalog.section",
"",
array(
"IBLOCK_TYPE" => $arParams["IBLOCK_TYPE"],
"IBLOCK_ID" => $arParams["IBLOCK_ID"],
"ELEMENT_SORT_FIELD" => $arParams["ELEMENT_SORT_FIELD"],
"ELEMENT_SORT_ORDER" => $arParams["ELEMENT_SORT_ORDER"],
....
....
"NEW_ADDITIONAL_GET_PARAMS"=> $_GET['view']
),
$component
);
Of course better way somethink like
"NEW_ADDITIONAL_GET_PARAMS"=> (in_array($_GET['view'],array('list','card'))?$_GET['view']:'list')
But may be you need just set right catalog params: SEF_MODE SEF_FOLDER SEF_URL_TEMPLATES
I am using code Igniter for my PHP project. I want to give provision in my site such that users can create new pages of their own, and access them directly from domain.com/their_page_name.
But, my developers have raised a concern that, 1000's of dynamic links that are presented in the format of domain.com/ is "not good for site's performance". For some 10-15 pages, it is fine. But, beyond that, it would effect the site's performance.
So, they proposed that the URL format should be like www.domain.com/something/page_name (here, 'something' is the controller name, as they mentioned it)
But, I really can't sacrifice my framework nor my requirement.
Is there any way that I can achieve the format of "www.domain.com/page_name" without effecting the site's performance?
Thanks in advance.
No issues on
Www.domain.com\userpagename.
It's not a framework issues. Codeigniter support this type of URL.you can create n no of URL.
Performance will matter how you are handling that particular controller or that particular function.
If may be 10 may be 100 ,work around same way.
You just have to put route accordingly.
$route[default_controller]=userurl;
$route[userurl/(:any)]=userurl yourfunction/$1`;
What it seems you need is dynamic controller, which can be done using Codeigniter's build in function _remap().
A code example is:
public function _remap($method){
if($method != null){
$this->yourFunction($method);
} else {
// handle the error as you like
}
}
public function yourFunction($key){
// your code logic here
}
All this code block goes inside your controller.
Edit: the performance is exactlu the same as going with domain.com/controller/method. What it matters, as stated above, is how you handle the data.
i have create module using module builder , now i am having a field called as book Name
now if i give same book name 2 time t is accepting .
i don't want to use and plug in for checking duplicate value because i want to learn the customization through code .
so i can call ajax and check in data base weather the same book name is exist in db or not but i don't know how controller works in sugar crm . and how to call ajax in sugar crm .
can any one guide me , your help is much appreciated .
If you really want to accomplish this using ajax then I'd recommend an entryPoint as the way to go. This customization will require a couple of simple things. First you'll write a little bit of javascript to perform the actual ajax call. That ajax call will post to the entryPoint you write. The entryPoint will run the query for you and return a response to you in the edit view. So lets get started by writing the entryPoint first.
First, open the file custom/include/MVC/Controller/entry_point_registry.php. If the folder structure and file do not exist yet, go ahead and create them.
Add the following code to the entry_point_registry.php file:
$entry_point_registry['test'] = array('file' => 'custom/test.php', 'auth' => true);
Some quick explanation about that line:
The index value of test can be changed to whatever you like. Perhaps 'unique_book_value' makes more sense in your case. You'll see how this value is used in a minute.
The file value in the array points to where you're gonna put your actual code. You should also give this a more meaningful name. It does NOT need to match the array key mentioned above.
The 'auth' => true part determines whether or not the browser needs to have an active logged in session with SugarCRM or not. In this case (and almost all) I'd suggest keeping this to true.
Now lets look at the code that will go in custom/test.php (or in your case unique_book_name.php):
/* disclaimer: we are not gonna get all crazy with using PDO and parameterized queries at this point,
but be aware that there is potential for sql injection here. The auth => true will help
mitigate that somewhat, but you're never supposed to trust any input, blah blah blah. */
global $db; // load the global sugarcrm database object for your query
$book_name = urldecode($_REQUEST['book_name']); // we are gonna start with $_REQUEST to make this easier to test, but consider changing to $_POST when confirmed working as expected
$book_id = urldecode($_REQUEST['book_id']); // need to make sure this still works as expected when editing an existing record
// the $db->quote is an alias for mysql_real_escape_string() It still does not protect you completely from sql injection, but is better than not using it...
$sql = "SELECT id FROM book_module_table_name WHERE deleted = 0 AND name = '".$db->quote($book_name)."' AND id <> '".$db->quote($book_id)."'";
$res = $db->query($sql);
if ($db->getRowCount($res) > 0) {
echo 'exists';
}
else {
echo 'unique';
}
A note about using direct database queries: There are api methods you can use to accomplish this. (hint: $bean->retrieve_by_string_fields() - check out this article if you wanna go that route: http://developer.sugarcrm.com/2012/03/23/howto-using-the-bean-instead-of-sql-all-the-time/) However, I find the api to be rather slow and ajax should be as fast as possible. If a client asked me to provide this functionality there's a 99% chance I'd use a direct db query. Might use PDO and parameterized query if I'm feeling fancy that day, but it's your call.
Using the above code you should be able to navigate to https://crm.yourdomain.com/index.php?entryPoint=test and run the code we just wrote.
However at this point all you're gonna get is a white screen. If you modify the url to include the entryPoint part and it loads your home page or does NOT go to a white screen there are 3 potential causes:
You put something different for $entry_point_registry['test']. If so change the url to read index.php?entryPoint=whatever_you_put_as_the_array_key
You have sugar in a folder or something on your domain so instead of crm.yourdomain.com it is located somewhere ugly and stupid like yourdomain.com/sugarcrm/ if this is the case just make sure that your are modifying the url such that the actual domain portion is preserved. Okay I'll spell it out for you... https://yourdomain.com/sugarcrm/index.php?entryPoint=test
This is more rare, but for some reason that I cannot figure out apache sometimes needs to be reloaded when adding a new entrypoint. If you have shell access a quick /etc/init.d/apache2 reload should do the trick. If you don't have shell access you may need to open a ticket with your hosting provider (or get a fricking vps where you have some control!!!, c'mon man!)
Still not working? Did you notice the "s" in https? Try http instead and buy a fricking $9 ssl cert, geez man!
Okay moving on. Let's test out the entryPoint a bit. Add a record to the book module. Let's add the book "War of Art" (no, not Art of War, although you should give that a read too).
Now in the url add this: index.php?entryPoint=test&book_name=Art%20of%20War
Oh gawd that url encoding is hideous right! Don't worry about it.
You should hopefully get an ugly white screen with the text "exists". If you do let's make sure it also works the other way. Add a 2 to the book name in the url and hopefully it will now say "unique".
Quick note: if you're using Sugar you're probably also using mysql which is case insensitive when searching on strings. If you really need case sensitivity check out this SO article:
How can I make SQL case sensitive string comparison on MySQL?
Okay so now we have our entryPoint working and we can move on to the fun part of making everything all ajaxical. There are a couple ways to go about this, but rather than going the most basic route I'm gonna show you what I've found to be the most reliable route.
You probably will need to create the following file: custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/views/view.edit.php (I hope by now I don't need to point out changing that path to use your module name...
Assuming this file did not exist and we are starting from scratch here is what it will need to look like:
if(!defined('sugarEntry') || !sugarEntry) die('Not A Valid Entry Point');
class CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULEViewEdit extends ViewEdit
{
public function display()
{
// make sure it works in the subpanel too
$this->useForSubpanel = true;
// make the name value available in the tpl file
$this->ss->assign('name_value', $this->bean->name);
// load the parsed contents of the tpl into this var
$name_input_code = $this->ss->fetch('custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/tpls/unique_book_checker.tpl.js');
// pass the parsed contents down into the editviewdefs
$this->ss->assign('custom_name_code', $name_input_code);
// definitely need to call the parent method
parent::display();
}
}
Things are looking good. Now we gotta write the code in this file: custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/tpls/unique_book_checker.tpl.js
First a couple of assumptions:
We're going to expect that this is Sugar 6.5+ and jquery is already available. If you're on an earlier version you'll need to manually include jquery.
We're going to put the event listener on the name field. If the book name value that you want to check is actually a different field name then simply adjust that in the javascript below.
Here is the code for custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/unique_book_checker.tpl.js:
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" maxlength="255" value="{$name_value}" />
<span id="book_unique_result"></span>
{literal}
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#name').blur(function(){
$('#book_unique_result').html('<strong> checking name...</strong>');
$.post('index.php?entryPoint=test', {book_name: $('#name').val(), book_id: $('[name="record"]').val()}, function(data){
if (data == 'exists') {
removeFromValidate('EditView', 'name');
addToValidate('EditView', 'name', 'float', true, 'Book Name Must be Unique.');
$('#book_unique_result').html('<strong style="color:red;"> ✗</strong>');
}
else if (data == 'unique') {
removeFromValidate('EditView', 'name');
addToValidate('EditView', 'name', '', true, 'Name Required');
$('#book_unique_result').html('<strong style="color:green;"> ✓</strong>');
}
else {
// uh oh! maybe you have php display errors on?
}
});
});
});
</script>
{/literal}
Another Note: When the code detects that the name already exists we get a little hacky and use Sugar's built in validation stuff to prevent the record from saving. Basically, we are saying that if the name already exists then the name value MUST be a float. I figured this is pretty unlikely and will do the trick. However if you have a book named 3.14 or something like that and you try to create a duplicate this code will NOT prevent the save. It will tell you that a duplicate was found, but it will not prevent the save.
Phew! Okay last two steps and they are easy.
First, open the file: custom/modules/CUSTOM_BOOK_MODULE/metadata/editviewdefs.php.
Next, find the section that provides the metadata for the name field and add this customCode attribute so that it looks like this:
array (
'name' => 'name',
'customCode' => '{$custom_name_code}',
),
Finally, you'll need to do a quick repair and rebuild for the metadata changes to take effect. Go to Admin > Repair > Quick Repair & Rebuild.
Boom! You should be good to go!
First have to say that almost every time when searching on technical solutions.. search engine will direct me to this site here. I admit that i have learned such A LOT here just by searching through for answers..
but also have to say that not being a coder.. so don't understand much here at all ;)
Ok, the Problem:
Want to update wordpress tables or calendar within wp admin. These changes should become updated on the public side automatically and more or less instantly (~ few seconds is perfectly fine).
I found solutions about manipulating header.php, i found some ajax plugins I found -too much to count- info on how to implement ajax into wp
Sadly.. none of these could help me through as the plugins mostly either not work, are outdated or require countless file edits. Manipulating header.php seems odd.. as i don't want to loop-refresh the whole page, post etc.. but only get e.g. table or calendar data updated.
So maybe any of you coders know of something to e.g. get the plugin "All-in-One Event Calendar by Timely" to update the public visible part of the calendar once data edited in wp admin?
Greatly appreciate pointers in any direction to solve this.
P.S.: What would you think of plugins like "ajaxify everything" ? don't know if this really the way to go..
Again, thanks for your help, time and contribution!!
update
additional question:
I now found such plugin to let me chose which parts i want to "ajaxify".
Such plugin would ask me for a specific function name.
Now, where do i start to gather this information?
Below is the instruction from the plugin context inside wordpress admin
Generate Ajaxized DIV for your function
Ajaxize will allow you to ajaxize almost any php function on your
site.
It can be a plugin, a function you wrote, or even a core wordpress
function.
There are some (obvious or less obvious) limitations currently:
Functions must return valid HTML - this will be called in php and returned via the
Ajax call
Functions cannot accept any parameters (at least at the moment)
Enter a function name below.
Function Name: xxx input field xxx what put in here? xxx
The generated div can be inserted to any page/post on the site and
will ajaxize the call to the function automatically.
Please make sure you enter a valid function name, that the function
does not require any parameters, and that it returns valid HTML.
In your context you want to refresh the calendar automaticaly when there is a change in the WP_Admin;
but you can't exactly do this.
You can write a Js method which will check the time of lastest modification of the calendar at the load of the page, stock it in Var.
After you'll have a constant (each 10seconds) Js "daemon" which will get the time of lastest modification of the calendar and compare it to the stocked Var; If change you reload the calendar.
PS: Ajaxify everything is not really a solution due of the developpement you need To Ajaxify and to code for people who has disabled Javascript.
Hope it helps
I am trying to load a rewrite rule based on a product's URL path.
I am using the loadByRequestPath() method in Mage_Core_Model_Url_Rewrite to accomplish this. However, no matter what I supply this method I get the following result (Check comment in code):
public function loadByRequestPath($path)
{
Zend_Debug::dump($path); // returns the path to my module
$this->setId(null);
$this->_getResource()->loadByRequestPath($this, $path);
$this->_afterLoad();
$this->setOrigData();
$this->_hasDataChanges = false;
return $this;
}
Here is my module code:
$productRewrite = Mage::getModel('core/url_rewrite') ->loadByRequestPath($product->getUrlPath());
Oddly, I get this back:
Array ( [0] => rewrites/getProductRewrites
[1] => rewrites/getProductRewrites/ )
Array ( [0] => 01003-product-name )
So loadByRequestPath() is getting called twice for whatever reason. $productRewrite still returns an empty object.
I have verified that $product->getUrlPath() returns the correct path. (As seen in the second array)
I am on Magento 1.6.1.
Your question is still a little unclear, so this answer might not address the specific problem you're seeing.
Magento's core team hasn't done a great job of communicating these sorts of things over the years, but loadByRequestPath is one of those methods that's best thought of as a "private api". Not in the OOP sense, but in the "this is a method used to implement core system functionality, and probably won't work like you think it should work, so use at your own risk".
The PHP code you're trying to use
$productRewrite = Mage::getModel('core/url_rewrite') ->loadByRequestPath($product->getUrlPath());
won't work with a default installation of Magento because the rewrite object doesn't have a store ID set. Trying something like this should work. (assuming the sample data, with an installed store object that has an ID of "1" and that the product in question exists in that store)
$productRewrite = Mage::getModel('core/url_rewrite');
$productRewrite->setStoreId(1);
$productRewrite->loadByRequestPath($product->getUrlPath());
The loadByRequestPath method assumes that a rewrite already has a store ID set, as it's part of Magento's larger dispatching process. (self-link to article describing the role of rewrites in Magento's routing system)
All that said, the problem you're describing is somewhat confusing. You say that
Zend_Debug::dump($path);
returns
an array that contains the path to my module
While I'm sure you know what the phrase "path to my module" means, it's a meaningless term in the larger magento universe. Being more specific about the literal value will help people understand what you mean.
Additionally, you also say
I have verified that $product->getUrlPath() returns the correct path.
but you're not clear on the value of "the correct path".
My guess would be the path you're seeing in Zend_Debug::dump is the call that's coming through as a part of the standard dispatch and not your later call using $product->getUrlPath(). However, the lack of clarity in your question makes that hard to tell.
If setting the store ID doesn't get you what you want, update your question with a full explanation of how you're running your code, and what you see displayed. With that information more people will be able to help you.
