Add parameters to $customPost
February 13, 2010, 06:52:15 am
Is it possible to add some information to the fields in $customPost and $customPre that are used in showing profiles on event registration pages? I can do that with a profile form with hook_civicrm_buildForm, but in the rendering of an event registration a variable ($customPost / $customPre) is passed to Block.tpl. Is it in any way possible to alter those vars before rendering in a hook?

currently no. we need a "pre display" hook in the form process so developers can alter the template variables. If you file an issue, i'll add it for 3.2 :)

any reason why u dont customize block.tpl

customPre / customPost are formatted in a very "specific" manner, so not sure if u'd want to modify those variables

I want to group certain fields in different fieldsets. So custom data group 1 in a fieldset 1, and custom data group 2 in a different fieldset. Becasue grouping is not possible right now I worked arround this by putting some extra information in the custom fields. In my template file I can switch on that to close and open fieldsets and tables.
Is there maybe another way of doing this?
