Chronoconnectivit v6 PHP code for Read Data content

paddy285 24 Jan, 2024
Hi,

Another quick question:

I can see that in CCv6 when creating a View - there is an option to create a Table or Repeater view.

In the content box you can enter the code to display the data for a specific field for each row of data.

The format for this is:

{var:repeatername.row.model.field}


and it works perfectly.

Does anyone know what the format of displaying this data would be if entered in PHP?

In CCv5 you could easily enter $row['model']['field']

Thanks in advance, Paddy

I just thought I would bump this hoping that Max could let me know if this is possible?

Thanks, Paddy.

Hi All,

I just wanted to provide an update as I have finally figured this out. It was pretty straight forward in the end. Within your PHP script, just type the following in:

echo "{var:repeatername.row.model.field}";



And it works perfectly!

Thanks, Paddy

Hi again,

I wanted to re-open this and hope that Max can provide a definitive answer for me, because my update didn't resolve my problem.

As stated previously, I'm trying to utilise each row/field of data within PHP.

e.g.: $thisnewvariable = {var:repeatername.row.model.field}; - this didn't work.

I've tried my solution ( $thisnewvariable = echo "{var:repeatername.row.model.field}"; ) and this didn't work.

Previous solution in CCv5 was easy: $thisnewvariable = $row['model']['field'];

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance for any assistance, Paddy

Answer
you should use:
$this->get("repeatername.row.model.field");

that should work in PHP if {var:repeatername.row.model.field} works for you
