Yes, it is. What is it you want to do, exactly?

There are some pre-made recipes on this page:

If you can explain exactly what you need, I can point you in the right direction.

Hi vassilism,

I don't know if the number of results per page is paginated, but I am going to assume for now that it's not paginated. Therefore, this recipe will return the number of items submitted by the current user. You can use this to determine which module(s) to show.

I hope this is what you are after.

Cheers,
Stephen


if ( $option == "com_sobi2" and JRequest::getVar('sobi2Task') == 'usersListing' ) {

    $config =& sobi2Config::getInstance();
    $database = $config->getDb();
    $uid = sobi2Config::request( $_REQUEST, "uid", 0 );
    $expired = false;

    if( !$uid ) {
        $my =& $config->getUser();
        $uid = $my->id;
        $expired = $config->key("users_own_listing", "can_see_expired");

    }

    if( !$uid ) {
        return;
    }
    $user =&sobi2bridge::jUser( $database );
    $user->load( $uid );

    $published = !$config->key("users_own_listing", "can_see_unpublished");
    $published = $published ? " AND published = 1 " : null;
    $query = "SELECT count(itemid) FROM #__sobi2_item WHERE owner = {$user->id}{$published}";
    $database->setQuery($query);
    $num_sids = $database->loadResult();
   
    // now $num_sids contains the number of entries for this user.
    // replace AAA, BBB, CCC etc with the module ids to return
    // if the user has that many entries.
    // If the user has less than 10, it will only return module AAA.
    // If the user has >=10 and <15, it will only return module BBB, etc.
    // If the user has >=  20, it will return the list of module numbers.
    if ( $num_sids < 10 ) return AAA;
    if ( $num_side < 15 ) return BBB;
    if ( $num_side < 20 ) return CCC;
    return "116, 73, 82, 38";
}
// if not on the user listing page, return module XXX
return XXX;

So can I just confirm a few things with you:

1 - where do you set the number of items in the pagination? I can't seem to find it. (either on admin side or user side)

2 - do you want to detect the number of items of the pagination (e.g. "10" no matter how many items are *actually* being displayed), or do you want the number of items actually being displayed (so if the pagination is 10 but there are only 3 items, you want "3") ?

3 - exactly which pages do you want this for? You mentioned the usersListing page above, but you seem to want others as well. You need to be completely specific about which pages you want to target, as the code for each may be different.

Best regards,
Stephen

Vasilis,

would you be happy with adding a couple of lines to a couple of core files in SOBI2? This will make the end result FAR more efficient (i.e. don't have to do extra database queries), and requires a lot less code.

For the user listing, make the following change in custom.listing.php:

around line 386 you will see the following code:

$requestParams =& $config->get_( "requestParams" );
if( ( $templateFunction && $templateFunction != "sobi2VCview" ) || !$forceCache ) {
  $doCache = false;
}

BEFORE that code, put the following line:

$config->set("resultlist_count", isset( $results ) && !empty( $results ) ? count($results) : 0 );


Then in the MetaMod you can use the following code:

if ( $option == "com_sobi2" ) {
  $config =& sobi2Config::getInstance();
  $num_items = $config->get( "resultlist_count" );
  // module XXX if there are more than 5 items showing
  if ($num_items > 5) return XXX; // replace XXX with module id to show
}


In the next post I should be able to do something similar for the standard results listings.
