Hi @admin,

About your question :
'params' are replaced by 'attribs' in 2.0. It will fix your problem.

Just to clarify, do you mean that the forthcoming release (v2.0) will automatically solve the issue of not being able to 'grab' the params (attribs) in the view?

Many thanks!

PS I am so damn excited about version 2 :woohoo:

[HOW TO] ADD & WORK WITH PARAMS 25 Apr 2014 20:57 #12413

Hello,

I can't get component's param in frontend. I set param throught admin menu item (please have a look at the attached picture).



I'm talking about param -> country

<fields name="params" label="COM_MENUS_LINKTYPE_OPTIONS_LABEL"
>
<fieldset name="menu-options"
label="COM_MENUS_LINKTYPE_OPTIONS_LABEL"
>
<field name="country" type="sql" default="0" label="COM_MENUS_ITEM_FIELD_COUNTRY_TITLE_LABEL" query="SELECT concat(c.country, ' (', l.title_native, ')') AS country FROM `vs4go_contacts_countries` as c LEFT JOIN `vs4go_languages` as l ON c.kalba = l.lang_id" />

I need to get this param -> 'country' in frontend. I have tried many ways, but after playing like 3 hours i decided to ask for help her in forum.

i would really appreciate for your help.

Hi,

In the front-end view (fork) add in view.html.php (function displayDefault):

$jinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
$menu = JSite::getMenu();
$params = $menu->getParams( $jinput->get( 'Itemid',0,'int') );
$country = $params->get('country');

This is default Joomla, not Cook

Although I found this tool some time ago I just started learning experimenting and building this first component on Monday and now on Thursday afternoon it's already online. Although I already had a working version done with another tool this is much easier to build and at the end you have the freedom to own your own component. Once you know how to use Cook you will boost your productivity as the learning curve is really moderate compared to many other tools.
