Hi,

Is there any way to create a variable before calling $module_result.content that can be used in templates that are shown by $module_result.content?

The thing is that the "$module_result.content " is called first. Before the pagelayout. You can see it when listing used templates...

So basically you can create a variable only in the "content/view " logic.

Forgot one simple way to create a variable :) - via view parameters

The pagelayout.tpl template calls pagelayout_main.tpl and this shows $module_result.content.

$module_result.content shows 2zoneslayout1.tpl, but I want to send a variable to 2zoneslayout1.tpl template.

Yes, it seems like it this in that order but actually it is not. Like I said, module is called first which produces $module_result variable. After that the pagelayout is called. And the $module_result.content variable is used.

So you can't do what you want directly.

Yes ;)

I show a list of content in 2zoneslayout1.tpl, but I want to display diferent type of content depending on a variable. The problem is I can't use unordered variables, or pass to an include and GET and POST don't work.

I think I should add that variable when $module_result.content being built, but I don't how.

Thanks for your help,

Why no view_parameters?

E.g. /your_url_to_node/(variable)/value

you will have it in full view as $view_parameters.variable

Because I think I can't access the contents of $view_parameters.variable if it is already showing $module_result.content. is $view_parameters a pagelayout.tpl variable? true?

You can access view_parameter "variable" in full view templates with: $view_parameters.variable

To access the same in pagelyaout use: $module_result.view_parameters.variable

I've done this:

In 2zoneslayout1.tpl:

{$view_parameters.filter}
...
<a href={'/content/view/full/2/(filter)/3'|ezurl()}>Test</a>

In pagelayout.tpl:

{$module_result.view_parameters.filter}

And result is:

pagelayout.tpl shows "3" and 2zoneslayout1.tpl shows nothing.

I don't understand :S

Hm, ezflow tpl could be a little tricky, try with the global variable: {$#view_parameters.filter}
