J1.5 talk:Triggering content plugins in your extension

Gba: /* Problem with pagebreak plugin: */

== Problem with PHP 5.3 when using this example: ==
PHP Warning: Parameter 2 to plgContent<MostPlugins>::onPrepareContent() expected to be a reference,
value given in <whichever plugin cause that> on line <xx>

As of PHP 5.3.0, you will get a warning saying that "call-time pass-by-reference" is deprecated when you use & in foo(&$a);
See http://php.net/manual/en/language.references.pass.php

The Example.php in content shows (now wrongly and deprecated in PHP 5.3):

<source lang="php">
$dispatcher->trigger('onPrepareContent', array (& $item, & $item->params, 0));
or could be: function onPrepareContent( &$article, '''&'''$params, $limitstart );
</source>

SHOULD now be:

<source lang="php">
$dispatcher->trigger('onPrepareContent', array (& $item, $item->params, 0));
or could be: function onPrepareContent( &$article, $params, $limitstart );
</source>

'''FIX:'''
-> Going into JOOMLA root and do a global replace through all PHP files will fix this issue.

Furthermore (somewhat related) if you getting the following error:
Warning: Missing argument 3 for plgContent<PluginName>::onPrepareContent()
in JOOMLA\plugins\content\<PluginName.php> on line xx''

you may also want to change in file JOOMLA\modules\mod_customcontent\helper.php:
<source lang="php">
line 36, change the array to: array (& $item, & $params, $limitstart ))
</source>

Ref: joomlacode.org/gf/project/ianstools/tracker/?action=TrackerItemEdit&tracker_item_id=10578

Not sure why this did not make the 1.5.15 ... 1.5.18 releases.

== Problem with pagebreak plugin: ==
At least one of the content plugins called 'pagebreak' does fully work in articles, only.
In a custom component the '<hr class="system-pagebreak' elements are just removed from the output; this means, any pagebreaks in a custom component's output are ignored.

This happens in pagebreak.php:96:
<source lang="php">
if ($params->get('intro_only') || $params->get('popup') || $full || $view != 'article')
{
$row->text = preg_replace($regex, '', $row->text);

return;
}
</source>

Please be aware of that, using this example!

WORKAROUND: If the view of the custom component is named 'article', the plugin processes the pagebreaks.
Still custom components with other views won't be able to use the pagebreaks plugin for their output.

J3.x:Triggering content plugins in your extension

2016-08-18T10:02:45Z

Gba:

{{version|2.5,3.x}}
A common example of [[Supporting plugins in your component|using plugins]] is to run the '''content plugins''' on some text. This is useful if you want to support plugins that usually work on Content from a custom extension. For the content prepare trigger you can simply call:

<source lang="php">
$text = JHtml::_('content.prepare', $text);
</source>

For any other content triggers you must call:

<source lang="php">
$article = new stdClass;
$article->text = $text;

// add more to parameters if needed
$params = new JObject;

// Note JDispatcher is deprecated in favour of JEventDispatcher in Joomla 3.x however still works.
JPluginHelper::importPlugin('content');
$dispatcher = JDispatcher::getInstance();
$dispatcher->trigger('onContentPrepare', array('some.context', &$article, &$params, 0));
</source>

You might want to look at core components (for example com_content) for an example. See the [[Plugin/Events|triggers page]] for the possible content plugin triggers.

Also for PHP5.3 compliance please look at the discussion page.
