Joomla plugin : how to get article title and article id
Solution 1
i tried :
public function onContentPrepare($context,&$article, &$params, $limitstart) {
echo JRequest::getVar('id');
}
Still I am not getting the id. Is this right?
The article is loaded in your second argument ($article
). Being on this event (onContentPrepare
), the only property you can access is $article->text
.
For suiting your purpose (getting the article id and title) you will want to use another event, called "onContentBeforeDisplay
".
public function onContentBeforeDisplay($context, &$article, &$params, $limitstart)
Here you have (again) the article passed through the second argument, but now you have access to properties like $article->id
, $article->title
and many others.
For future references on content events, take a look at the file "plugins\content\example\example.php"
Solution 2
In order to get the article ID you have to write the following:
echo JRequest::getVar('id');
For the title, you just take the id you got, load the article object
$blabla = $article->load(ID);
echo $blabla->get('title');
Solution 3
It seems JRequest
is deprecated in 2.5 & 3.x as indicated in the Deprecated Elements list.
I would rather use the following:
$article_id = JFactory::getApplication()->input->get('id');

I have developed on simple plugin in Joomla 1.6 I stuck at : How to get article title and article url.
I am getting no output if tried to print below statement:
echo $article->title; echo $article->id;
I have written this in php file, not used MVC architecture. Is there any other settings need to do in Joomla admin side ?
Please suggest your pointers for extracting article title and article url.
Thanks in advance!
