Show module with module

Hi,

I am looking for a recipes to show a module (custom html) only with another module. I can manually do this, but if I add another page to the module I have to remember to do them both.

Thank you
Regards
Lene

Re: Show module with module

That's an interesting scenario. Actually there's a recipe in the documentation for achieving the reverse of that (displaying a module on every page where another specific one is NOT assigned). This is just for Joomla 1.5:

http://www.metamodpro.com/metamod/recip … not-appear

So a small change to this will allow you to assign a module to every page where another module IS assigned. You could do it like this:

Code:

$moduleid = 23; /* the module we are checking for. Customise this! */

$sql = 'SELECT count(*) as c from #__modules m, #__modules_menu mm ' .

  'WHERE mm.moduleid = m.id ' .

  'and m.published = 1 ' .

  'and (mm.menuid = ' .

  (int)$Itemid . ' or mm.menuid = 0) and mm.moduleid = ' . (int)$moduleid;

 

$db->setQuery( $sql, 0, 1 );

$row = $db->loadObject();

 

$assigned = ($row != null and $row->c > 0);

 

/* replace 101 with module id to display when the other module IS assigned to this page */

if ($assigned) return 101;
