[SOLVED] using php tags inside opencart html module

using php tags inside opencart html module

I need to call some php vars inside a html module on opencart, but when i use <?php ?> my page renders as .

is there a way of doing this using the default HTML module of opencart 2.x

Solution

UPDATED

 this comment caused by CKEDITOR. But even without editor PHP will not run in standard OpenCart on client side. Here is a recipe howto deal with custom PHP in HTML module.

Adding extra field in OpenCart HTML module with PHP support.

admin/view/template/extension/module/html.tpl, find

<div class="form-group">
  <label class="col-sm-2 control-label" for="input-description<?php echo $language['language_id']; ?>"><?php echo $entry_description; ?></label>
  <div class="col-sm-10">
    <textarea name="module_description[<?php echo $language['language_id']; ?>][description]" placeholder="<?php echo $entry_description; ?>" id="input-description<?php echo $language['language_id']; ?>" data-lang="<?php echo $lang; ?>" class="form-control summernote"><?php echo isset($module_description[$language['language_id']]['description']) ? $module_description[$language['language_id']]['description'] : ''; ?></textarea>
  </div>
</div>

Add after

<div class="form-group">
  <label class="col-sm-2 control-label" for="input-description2<?php echo $language['language_id']; ?>"><?php echo $entry_description; ?> 2</label>
  <div class="col-sm-10">
    <textarea name="module_description[<?php echo $language['language_id']; ?>][description2]" placeholder="<?php echo $entry_description; ?> 2" id="input-description2<?php echo $language['language_id']; ?>" data-lang="<?php echo $lang; ?>" class="form-control" style="min-height: 400px;"><?php echo isset($module_description[$language['language_id']]['description2']) ? $module_description[$language['language_id']]['description2'] : ''; ?></textarea>
  </div>
</div>

This will be field for the second description.

catalog/controller/extension/module/html.php, find

$data['html'] = html_entity_decode($setting['module_description'][$this->config->get('config_language_id')]['description'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');

Add after

$data['html2'] = html_entity_decode($setting['module_description'][$this->config->get('config_language_id')]['description2'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
      
if (preg_match('|<\?php.+?\?>|isu', $data['html2'])) {              
  ob_start();
  @eval('?>' . $data['html2']);
  $data['html2'] = ob_get_contents();
  ob_end_clean();           
}

This will add a second field and with PHP render.

catalog/view/theme/default(or YOUR_THEME)/template/extentsion/module/html.tpl

Add at the end

<?php if($html2) { ?>  
  <?php echo $html2; ?>  
<?php } ?>
