TOPIC: how can i display hotspots component out of joomla

How can i display hotspots component out of joomla? Without headers, side menus, footer, only the component.

So you want to kind a use it in an iframe??? Or what is the use case?

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

If I add:to the end of my website address, I can see hotspots component without any menu, banner or anything else from the joomla's template. But I can only display categories. Is there any way to display a single marker?

What I wanna do is just send a clean link to my clients to check that everything is ok with the information, image, etc.

Hey Eliecer,
What is the problem to add the ?tmpl=component to the single view of the hotspot?

Like here:
demo.compojoom.com/hotspots/1-education/...ravel?tmpl=component

Daniel

is there a single view of a hotspot without the comment section?

by using tmpl=component you are telling joomla to fetch the page by using the component.php file in your template...

Since comments are loading onAfterContent event in the component, they are also shown on the page. Basically - everything that is connected with the component in one way or another will show up - most probably only modules are not active in the component.php file.

But, are you using compojoomComment as well on your site?

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

No, I am not using compojoomComment in my site.

Well, you shouldn't have to worry about it then, right?

then, what is the link I should use to show single view of hotspots?

Well, maybe the best thing would be to open the link in frontend and copy the url from the browser, but this will take too much time...

So the structure of the url looks like this:
And the slug is the name of the category without any spaces and &% characters etc...

Thanks Daniel, but that link brings the joomla template as well with all the menus, headers, footer, etc. I made few changes to the link to show only the map, and one marker.

The example:
Link

And to see all the markers inside one category without any frames from joomla (menus, header, footer, etc), the code to use is:

The example:
Link

Thanks man to pointed me in the right direction.

May I ask why you need this? I just thought that it is maybe cool to have a link from the backend pointing to the single view of the hotspot.

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

As I mentioned before,

What I wanna do is just send a clean link to my clients to check that everything is ok with the information, image, etc.

This link will contain only their marker.
