Block Visibility in Drupal 6 based on CiviCRM gid
April 28, 2014, 10:35:44 am
Hi everyone,
I've been beating my head against the wall and can't seem to figure this out.  I'm hoping someone can help me.

I have several Drupal views that link to contact profiles in CiviCRM.  I have also created a header block that appears above the profile.  This header needs to be visible when the gid=16 but not when the gid=17.

An example path would be civicrm/profile/view?reset=1&id=50826&gid=16 or civicrm/profile/view?reset=1&id=61234&gid=17.

I've tried adjusting the block visibility settings in Drupal using "Show on only the listed pages."  Clearly
Code: [Select]
civicrm/profile/view* won't work and something like
Code: [Select]
civicrm/profile/view*&gid=16 won't work either.

I've also tried to edit using "Show if the following PHP code returns TRUE (PHP-mode, experts only)." with

Code: [Select]
<?php
  if(arg(0)=='gid=16') {
    return TRUE;
  }else {
    return FALSE;
  }
?>
and some different variations of this idea.  My code may be incorrect, but I'm looking for any help you can give me.  Thanks for any insight you can give.

This page and its sub-pages is where I found some good info.

https://drupal.org/node/60317

I've also tried using the Drupal 7 solution, which white screens my site from http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,28727.msg135441.html#msg135441

Code: [Select]
<?php
$match = FALSE;
if (current_path() == 'civicrm/profile/view' && isset($_GET['gid']) && $_GET['gid'] == 16) { $match = TRUE; }
return $match;
?>

Alright.  Maybe this will get a conversation started.  I was able to switch the gid and id in the view, so now theoretically

Code: [Select]
civicrm/profile/view?reset=1&gid=16*

would work in the block visibility.  However, it doesn't.  I saw a post referencing to adding a "/" between the "view" and "?".  However, this doesn't work either.  Does anyone know how to format the special characters so that Drupal properly reads them?

You can get the full URL in PHP by using the global $_SERVER. Then you can write some simple PHP code to check for the gid=16.

Thanks so much for pointing me in the direction I need to go Hershel.  I'm sure I am not correctly coding the visibility settings.  Can you tell me where I'm going wrong?  Thanks again.

Code: [Select]
<?php
$match = FALSE;
  if (substr($_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"], 0) == "/civicrm/profile/view?reset=1&gid=16*")
  { $match = TRUE;}
return $match;
?>

there is quite a long thread here in case you can glean anything from it - but I just use https://drupal.org/project/block_query

which lets me set a block to show at a specific civicrm path and gets around the problem of civi paths having ? in them.

Thanks Pete,
I'm not sure where the long thread is about this.  Also, is there a Drupal 6 version of the module?

I got it!  Thanks so much.  It was simpler than I thought. I had actually read that page, but somehow looked over this

Code: [Select]
<?php
$url = request_uri();
if (strpos($url, "gid=16")) {
return TRUE;
}
