TOPIC: Upcoming events module

Hi
I need to show in the upcoming events module the event image and the event price,
I'm trying adding in the template page of the module (default.php) the following line:
$eventimage = MatukioHelperRendering::getEventImage($event);
but I get this error: Class 'MatukioHelperRendering' not found

Please can some one give me some suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Fabrizio

Hi Fabrizio,

you need to import the helper class:

JLoader::register('MatukioHelperRendering', JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_matukio/helpers/rendering.php');

kind regards,

Yves

Thanks Yves, now it works!
But I have a similar problem when I add the organizer
In the module template page I add the following line: <?php echo MatukioHelperRendering::getOrganizer($event, $this->organizers); ?>
But I get an error:
Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/aniceverde/templates/t3_bs3_blank/html/mod_matukio_upcoming/default.php on line 76

Where I'm Wrong?
Thanks for you help Fabrizio

Hi,

you can't copy code without the context There is no $this in the module and you need to get the organizer object ($organizer = ...) before using that code. (Query to the database - not that trivial).

Kind regards,

Yves

Hi Yves and thanks for you reply.
I'm sorry but I'm not a developer, so please can you be more specific about the object ($organizer = ...), may be with an example?
I thanks a lot

Fabrizio

Hi Yves
Please can you help me with the piece of code?
Thanks

Hmm it's not just a piece of code i fear, getting the organizer there is a bit complicated, you can try the following (but it could cause problems in some cases):

<?php echo MatukioHelperRendering::getOrganizer($event, null); ?>

But as i said that's not ideal - it would be better to query and get it there directly (±20 lines of code).

Kind regards,

Yves

Thanks Yves
I used the code you suggest (<?php echo MatukioHelperRendering::getOrganizer($event, null); ?>) and it seems to work
Thanks for Help
