surge-ee / surgeree Goto Github PK

Since we're discussing standards, should be good to use just CodeIgniter Active Record, instead of plain SQL. Active_record is safer than plain SQL and works on others databases than MySQL.

If you agree, I can convert the current functions.

It's good to help.

Is your plan to add some segment helpers available on CodeIgniter? If you want, I can add them.

Thanks!

Hi Daniel, wonder if you might check this please. Your example {exp:surgeree:modulo numerator="4" denominator="3"} outputs 0 and not 1.

Best wishes

Here's a funny one for you.

This useage, as per your example -

{exp:channel:entries dynamic="no"}
    {if '{exp:surgeree:modulo numerator="{count}" denominator="2"}' == 1}<div class="section">{/if}
<h3>{title}</h3>
    {if '{exp:surgeree:modulo numerator="{count}" denominator="2"}' == 0}</div>{/if} 
{/exp:channel:entries}

(a massively simplified version of a subtemplate I'm using)

produces:

    <h3>Title 1</h3>
                    </div>
    <h3>Title 2</h3>
                    </div>
    <h3>Title 3</h3>
                    </div>
    <h3>Title 4</h3>
                    </div>
    <h3>Title 5</h3>
                    </div>
etc...

• indicating that exp:surgeree:modulo either isn't working or isn't getting the correct value for {count}, as it's always evaluating to 0.

Probably the latter since

{exp:channel:entries dynamic="no"}{count}
    {if '{exp:surgeree:modulo numerator="{count}" denominator="2"}' == 1}<div class="section">{/if}
<h3>{title}</h3>
    {if '{exp:surgeree:modulo numerator="{count}" denominator="2"}' == 0}</div>{/if} 
{/exp:channel:entries}

will fix the problem.

Any idea why?

I've one hypothesis: EE doesn't spot the use of {count} in the surgeree tag, so doesn't bother running the code to replace {count} with the value. That's a wild stab in the dark. It's the sort of foible that we learn to love and/or lose hair over when using EE.

Can modulo be made to work here? Simple workaround to put {count} in an HTML comment, of course.

Whoops.

Hi there,

i don't know if it's a bug, but if i don't use the var {count} to switch between odd and even entries, i get no results.

{exp:channel:entries channel="projects" status="open" dynamic="off"}

{if '{exp:surgeree:modulo numerator="{count}" denominator="2"}' != 0}

Simple output

{/if}
{/exp:channel:entries}

Is it possible to add support for number formats? I'm thinking support for some of the standards like: adding comma for thousands, adding dollar sign for money, rounding decimal spaces to two. I was using 'Number Format' but it's not really being supported under EE2, plus the less plugin the better, and SurgerEE has been great for other common uses.

I love your module, thanks for it. I wanted to use your regex tag and it kept not working and I found that the problem in EE 2.6 was the following line I was using to write my code:

{if `{exp:surgeree:match string="foo" regex="^[f]"}' == 'y'}

It should be

{if '{exp:surgeree:match string="foo" regex="^[f]"}' == 'y'}

Thanks again. And by the way I got this snippet from your string wiki page.

We should haz it.

It would be nice to be able to count entries with category and channel options. This is especially useful when using Gumby Toggles & Switches and the toggle itself is separated form the content it is toggling.

For example:

{if '{exp:surgeree:count channel="news" category="4"}' > 5}
{!-- do this --}
{/if}
