Blocks (anywhere) - version 1.1 Update
Published by trabis on 2009/4/4 (15940 reads)
Here is an easy way to place a block in a theme or template.
Just upload this smarty plugin to class/smarty/xoops_plugins folder and you will be able to add a block using the following method:
Replace '1' by the id of the block you want to display.
You can find id of block in blocks admin, just hover the mouse over block edit link and you will see something like this:
yoursite/modules/system/admin.php?fct=blocksadmin&op=edit&bid=3
This plugin respect XOOPS permissions. It will only display the block for users that are allowed to see it(as set in groups permissions).
This plugin also takes in consideration cached blocks.
Version 1.1 brings you some new cool options such as:
display = 'title' -> shows just title
display = 'none' -> renders the block but does not display it
options = 'enter|block|options' -> overwrites block default options
groups = 'enter|allowed|groups' -> overwrites block default group view permissions
cache = 3600 -> overwrite cache time(in seconds)
Code examples:
Usage example:
Place your 'multimenu' block in your theme.
Invisible online block that updates online users table.
Add an image gallery block inside article category page.
Add users online block into yogurt profile page
Etc...
No demo available, just try it!
