Problem with prependTemplateFile/appendTemplateFile and PW-language-localized-URL

[maba]

Hi,

if I try to use prependTemplateFile and appendTemplateFile in a site with multi language on and PW-language-localized-URL, _init and _out files are parsed many times:

<?php echo "Prepend...<br />";

and

<?php echo "Append...<br />";

/ (it, default language):

Prepend...
Append...

/en/

Prepend...
Prepend...
Prepend...
Append...
Append...
Append...

/fr/

Prepend...
Prepend...
Prepend...
Append...
Append...
Append...

/some-it-pages/or-children

Prepend...
Prepend...
Append...
Append...

Some problem with language-gateway?

Loaded templates:

/it/

Prepend... home;
Append... home;

/en/

Prepend... language-gateway;
Prepend... language-gateway;
Prepend... home;
Append... home;
Append... home;
Append... language-gateway;

The LanguageLocalizedURL module uses gateway pages that "render" (as it is a page), in there it then will "render" the content of a page evaluated by the parser. The gateway template example provided uses $page->render();. So you got 2 render. To avoid it you could change the render to include the template that would originally be used.

<?php
$page = $modules->get('LanguageLocalizedURL')->parseUrl();
include($config->paths->templates . $page->template . ".php");

I'm not sure again about the drawbacks of this approach, but should work.

[maba]

Nope

/en/

Prepend... language-gateway;

[b]Warning[/b]: include(/site/templates/language-gateway): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [b]/path/site/templates/language-gateway.php[/b] on line [b]5[/b]

[b]Warning[/b]: include(): Failed opening '/site/templates/language-gateway' for inclusion (include_path='.:/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.4/lib/php') in [b]/path/site/templates/language-gateway.php[/b] on line [b]5[/b]
Append... language-gateway; 

Thanks

Look at my corrected code, you was too fast. $page->template only returns name without ".php".

[maba]

Replaced all the code in language-gateway.php with your, same error (on line 3).

[Soma]

Maybe because you got PW in a subfolder of webroot?

It could also be written like this

<?php
$localizedpage = $modules->get('LanguageLocalizedURL')->parseUrl();
include("./{$localizedpage->template}.php");

[Soma]

BTW what is prependTemplateFile appendTemplateFile? There's no such API method in PW.

[maba]

Webroot installation.

Yes, with the last snippet it works.

Are in dev branch, I've seen these in this Ryan's post.

Thanks Soma!

[Soma]

Just looked like it's in a subfolder, in your error "/path/site/templates/language-gateway.php" /path/site/...

So the first example doesn't work with urls which was wrong. It should be $config->paths->templates instead.

<?php
$page = $modules->get('LanguageLocalizedURL')->parseUrl();
include($config->paths->templates . $page->template . ".php");

Ah yes I see, this was added recently, somehow missed it or couldn't remember.

[maba]

Sorry.. I removed full path and replace it with "path" only for the post..

Yes, it works.

Eh, eh.. I tried new skyscrapers profile.

[maba]

Not a big problem, but for the next release: now it works but cannot use this features (in _init.php of skyscrapers profile)

/***************************************************************************************
* SHARED VARIABLES
*
* These are the variables we've decided template files may choose to populate.
* These variables are ultimately output by _out.php. Here we are establishing
* default values for them.
*
*/

$browserTitle = $page->title; // what appears in the <title> tag
$headline = $page->title; // primary h1 headline
$content = $page->body; // bodycopy area

Or better.. we have to overwrite this variables in all templates because language-gateway is the first template loaded so title is "ITALIAN" (e.g.) and body is empty.

[Soma]

Yeah, I noticed while trying the prependTemplateFile with LanguageLocalizedURL module.

I found a solution to avoid the issue and also the double render issue it had before with render method.

I commited an update to 0.1.1 and will update the module thread later.

[maba]

Mmmm.. it's all ok for the double render problem, but same issue with the "pre" declared variables.

[Soma]

It's working fine here. Have you removed any code from gateway template?

[maba]

Yes.. but the problem is bigger here. No translations, no content for any page. Try to investigate..

[Soma]

Have you named the template "language_gateway" or changed the new configuration to match your gateway template name?

[maba]

Yes! It works.

Some problems with other template, my mistake.

[Soma]

Ok good to know, thanks for report.
