I am trying to add a custom link to a custom page using the vtiger_link table, with 2 parameters; 1 is the trouble ticket id which works fine:
This is in the URL field in the database:
modules/Helpdesk%20Info/index.php?ticketid=$RECORD$"target='helpdeskinfo'
and 2 is the id of the logged in user ($current_user) but it doesn't work:
modules/Helpdesk%20Info/index.php?ticketid=$RECORD$&$user=$current_user"target='helpdeskinfo'
It shows the page just as it should, but the variable $user gets the value '$current_user':
http://localhost:8888/modules/Helpdesk%20Info/index.php?ticketid=135409&$user=$current_user
I wanted to post a picture of the table, but I don't have enough reputation for that.
I have tried many things, but I am clearly doing something wrong.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I did not need to put the variable in the URL,
the reason I could not use the $current_user variable is because it didn't exist in "detailview.php" which is where the link ends up.
I used:
echo "<pre>";
print_r($GLOBALS);
echo "</pre>";
to view all globals, there I found the authenticated_user_id
Knowing I could use this I was able to access the global from my file without the URL:
$current_user = $_SESSION["authenticated_user_id"];
I would like to thank STT LCU for his advice, as he was the only one who helped me through this problem, which took me a full week in total.

etc every time n value change.
and also i want get n value in page-download.php
please tell me how to do it . i know how to work in php simple but in wordpress its not work
Why just not use, echo $_GET['n'] ?
When you hit this page directly from the URL like below, please change your parameter, because of that I have tried same method few days ago and I can't get the parameter value.
http://example.com/download?from_browser=skype
http://example.com/download?from_browser=firefox
You can get the value like below or as per the reference :
$blah = get_query_var( 'from_browser');
if(isset($blah)) // Your code will be here
Hope this help!!!
Let's suppose the user visits the page of
http://mywpsite/wp-admin/edit.php?author=john-doe
Let's suppose there is an author with the name of 'John Doe' and the given author has three posts. Yet, when I visit the page, I see an empty grid, as if there were no posts created by this author.
I would like to search for posts created by the given user. Based on my research, I can see that people are claiming that something like this should work:
function posts_for_current_author($query) {
if($query->is_admin) {
global $user_ID;
$query->set('author', $user_ID);
}
return $query;
}
add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'posts_for_current_author');
Source.
However, here the author's ID is expected as input, yet, I do not know how to get the author's id by the slug of 'john-doe'.
How can I get the ID of the author by slug and search for posts based on that ID?
EDIT:
This is one failed try, based on NATH's comment:
function wpshock_search_filter( $query ) {
if ((is_admin()) && (isset($_GET["author"])) && (preg_match('/[^a-zA-Z_0-9]/i', $_GET["author"]))) {
$query->set("author_name", $_GET["author"]);
}
return $query;
}
add_filter('pre_get_posts','wpshock_search_filter');
The query still returns no elements. I have var_dumped $query and seen that $query->query["author"] has the textual problem, which is a potential problem. Also, $query->tax_query contains data related to author. I am sorry if this question is worthy of down-votes, I thought others might be confused by Wordpress's database handling as well and thus this question might be useful. Maybe I was wrong.
This should work for you :
get_user_by('slug','john-doe');
EDIT :
From this you can get author object and you can carry forward with your code.

WordPress provides an author_name query variable to you. You can use the following by default:
http://mywpsite/wp-admin/edit.php?author_name=john-doe
Read more about public query variables in the Codex.
I'm wotking on wp front-end and reach similar feauture you are requested
The code you provide are woking current on wp-admin page but any one uses that code prevent his own SuperAdmin account form reviewing other editors posts .
just add !is_super_admin() to your first contition like this :-
if($query->is_admin && !is_super_admin() )
BTW the author's ID are already provided with global $user_ID;
and when you add this $query->set('author',$user_ID); the main query will filter posts result accurding to author ID , see WP_Query();
See this-
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/89990/how-we-can-get-the-author-id-by-its-name
And, a better way to get posts by an author would be-
get_posts('author'=>AUTHOR_ID);
Whenever a user posts a comment, I'd like to basically have a copy of the post sent to another database for a separate site. The database part is simple, but I can't seem to find the right action hook for this. (I did my testing with a simple echo statement, a failure being it not displaying at all) 'comment_save_pre' would only work when updating a comment, 'wp_set_comment_status' only works when the comment is approved, and 'comment_post' didn't seem to work at all. Does the hook exist?
add_action('...?...', 'on_comment_post');
function on_comment_post($comment){
echo "Test";
}
You can use comment_post :
Runs just after a comment is saved in the database. Action function
arguments: comment ID, approval status ("spam", or 0/1 for
disapproved/approved).
I have a file (js.phtml) where my code executes. I need to access some user data. When I error_log($this) in js.phtml, it displays, "Mage_Core_Block_Template" - which is confusing to me. I would expect that to be the parent class, not the value of the class getting passed to my .phtml file.
So, how do I supply the .phtml file with custom objects or methods? I'm super new to Magento and I've just been dropped into a task, so I apologize for possibly using incorrect terminology.
Edit:
My full file path is:
/app/design/frontend//default/template/customer/welcome/js.phtml
There is also a full module dir here:
/app/code/local//Customer/
Edit:
I need access to the users country and userid. It's ok if country is null.
Edit:
I've been doing additional research, it looks like I can do something like this:
Current user in Magento?
But I haven't tried it in code yet ....
Edit: Figured it out:
error_log(print_r(Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomer()->getEntityId(), true));
error_log(print_r(Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomer()->getCountry(), true));
To get customer ID:
echo Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomer()->getId();
To get country - depends from which address. Here's an example of getting the country code from the default billing address:
echo Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomer()->getDefaultBillingAddress()->getCountry();
I am somewhat new to Magento, but I think this should work.
$customer = Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomer();
That gets the customer object. Then...
echo $customer->getAddresses();
That should get the country somewhere in the address. As for userid...I don't see it on the documentation page..You could try
echo $customer->getAttributes();
And see what is in there. The documentation page is at:
http://docs.magentocommerce.com/Mage_Customer/Mage_Customer_Model_Customer.html
Going a bit mad here... :)
I'm just trying to add CCK fields from a Content Profile content type into page-user.tpl.php (I'm creating a highly-themed user profile page).
There seem to be two methods, both of which have a unique disadvantage that I can't seem to overcome:
'$content profile' method.
$var = $content_profile->get_variables('profile');
print $var['field_last_name'][0]['safe'];
This is great, except I can't seem to pass the currently viewed user into $content_profile, and it therefore always shows the logged in user.
'$content profile load' method.
$account_id = arg(1);
$account = user_load($account_id);
$user_id = $account->uid;
$var = content_profile_load('profile', $user_id);
print $var->field_first_name[0]['value'];
Fine, but now I can't access the full rendered fields, only the plain values (i.e. if the field has paragraphs they won't show up).
How can I have both things at once? In other words how can I show fields relating to the currently viewed user that are also rendered (the 'safe' format in 1)?
I've Googled and Googled and I just end up going round in circles. :(
Cheers,
James
Your content profile load method seems to be the closest to what you want.
In your example:
$account_id = arg(1);
$account = user_load($account_id);
$user_id = $account->uid;
$var = content_profile_load('profile', $user_id);
print $var->field_first_name[0]['value'];
The $var is just a node object. You can get the "full rendered fields" in a number of ways (assuming you mean your field with a filter applied).
The most important thing to check is that you're field is actually configured properly.
Go to:
admin/content/node-type/[node-type]/fields/field_[field-name] to configure your field and make sure that under text processing that you've got "Filtered text" selected.
If that doesn't fix it,try applying this:
content_view_field(content_fields("field_last_name"), $var, FALSE, FALSE)
(more info on this here: http://www.trevorsimonton.com/blog/cck-field-render-node-formatter-format-output-print-echo )
in place of this:
print $var->field_first_name[0]['value'];
if none of that helps... try out some of the things i've got on my blog about this very problem:
http://www.trevorsimonton.com/blog/print-filtered-text-body-input-format-text-processing-node-template-field-php-drupal
When you're creating a user profile page there is a built in mechanism for it. just create a user template file, user_profile.tpl.php.
When you use the built in mechanism you automatically get access to the $account object of the user you are browsing, including all user profile cck fields. You have the fields you are looking for without having to programmatically load the user.
I have a field called profile_bio and am able to spit out any mark up that is in without ever having to ask for the $account.
<?php if ($account->content[Profile][profile_bio]['#value']) print "<h3>Bio</h3>".$account->content[Profile][profile_bio]['#value']; ?>
I've tried themeing content profiles by displaying profile node fields through the userpage before and it always seems a little "hacky" to me. What I've grown quite fond of is simply going to the content profile settings page for that node type and setting the display to "Display the full content". This is fine and dandy except for the stupid markup like the node type name that content profile injects.
a solution for that is to add a preprocess function for the content profile template. one that will unset the $title and remove the node-type name that appears on the profile normally.
function mymodule_preprocess_content_profile_display_view(&$variables) {
if ($variables['type'] == 'nodetypename') {
unset($variables['title']);
}
}
A function similar to this should do the trick. Now to theme user profiles you can simply theme your profile nodes as normal.
