How get the name of a DOM element for use in hook

[abmcr]

I want to change the label of the View anchor and i have created an hook as

 

$wire->addHookAfter('ProcessPageEdit::buildForm', function(HookEvent $event) {
    $form = $event->return; 
    $ppe = $event->object; 
    $page = $ppe->getPage();
    if(in_array($page->template->name, ['trail'])) {
        $button = $form->getChildByName('_ProcessPageEditView'); // How get this value??????
        if($button) $button->value = 'My new text'; // Change the text
    }
});

but how can get the exact reference to element; as you see in the attached image i have used the ID of the element  but this is not the correct way because the code don't work...

What is the correct logic for get the name for using it in an hook code?

 

Thank you

Hi, I’m on my phone, but I think you might want to hook ProcessPageEdit::getSubmitActions and change the label in the returned array. It will look like this:

$event->return['view']['label']

Apologies if this is not 100% correct – I’m looking through the code on a first gen iphone SE ?

You should also be able to change the text using ProcessWire’s translation capabilities.

Hi @abmcr

I think you can try to use wireLangReplacements

I want also change the label "view" in PageList: i have searched into the code and the data for showing the buttons is created in the ProcessPageList.js; the data used in this file is send from ProcessPageList.module in the public function renderReady not hookable.... 

It is possible in a way i not suppose, achieve my purpose? Thanks

$this->addHookAfter('ProcessPageListActions::getActions', function($event) {
    $actions = $event->return;
    $actions['view']['name'] = 'SomeValue';
    $event->return = $actions;
});
