I've created a new "ViewMode" and his URI has two new parameters (i.e.: content/view/frontpage/16//param1/param2)

I need access to parameters in .../templates/node/view/frontpage.tpl but $viewParameters only has "ViewMode", "NodeID" and "LanguageCode".

Where are "param1" and "param2"?

Thanks in advance

Sorry, don't have an answer to this. But your approach sounds interesting. Would you like to share how you created the custom view mode? I am sure, that it's not too difficult and that other users can benefit from this.

I prepared a Wiki site. You just have to add a few sentences of description. :-)

Hello!
You should try to extract all params with code like this:
$Module =& $Params["Module"];
$viewParams = $Module->ViewParameters;

$viewParams is now an array contained all parameters
now you only have to hand over the array or extracted fields to your .tpl file with "setAttribute" function.
Hope this will help.

I try this, but $viewParams has only the "oficial" parameters, i.e: "ViewMode", "NodeId" and "LanguageCode".

Can you show me an example of "setAttribute" function?

Thanks

Hi again!
Have you tried to modify line 75 in your /kernel/content/module.php file?
Try adding these new parameters to an array under key "params".
Bye and good luck

Of course if you created new view then you should modify suitable module.php file.
Bye and good luck

I made something similar but I don't sure what is the best solution.

I've modified kernel/content/view.php:
I've added a new variable $myParams = $Params['Parameters'] (around line 53), and (around line 150) I've added $tpl->setVariable( 'myParams', $myParams ).

Now, I have a cariable $myParams in my new template.

What do you think?

P.S.: Can do you see message http://developer.ez.no/forum/message/13750 ?

Thanks in advanced

I think it's a good solution but I found better and more formal. Try to modify line 75 in /kernel/content/module.php:
"params" => array( "ViewMode", "NodeID", "LanguageCode", "Param1", "Param2" ),
now in /kernel/content/view.php you can access params from URI (eg. index.php/user/content/view/full/2//Hello/World) with $Params['Param1'] and $Params['Param2'].

As for the second problem I found out how to access
multidimensional array and I succeed only with sth like that:
assume you hand over to your tpl file array:
$ar = array ( array ( array("0"=>"day_num", "1"=>"object_id") ) );
to access your "object_id" param you need to write:
{let ar_0=$ar.0}{let ar_0_0=$ar_0.0}{let ar_0_0_1=$ar_0_0.1}
This is rather rare way to access array field, but I think you can now build loops taking advantage of the code I've written.

Take care,
