Author Topic: Data displayed on thank you page via conditional referencing event_type_id (Read 1506 times)

Hello,

I need to display a button on the thank you page when the registered event has a certain type, let's say type = 3. I am trying to get the value of the $_SESSION variable [event_type_id], which is nested under the [CiviCRM] [CRM_Event_Controller_Registration_'some number'] array.

The following:

$eventtype = $_SESSION['CiviCRM']['[CRM_Event_Controller_Registration_'some number'']['values']['event']['event_type_id'];

does not work - as I need to account for all possible instances of 'some_number'. How do I do that?

Thank you for your help.

Thank you for responding to my question on the forum http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,6771.0.html . I am trying to do this in a custom ThankYou.tpl, but am testing in the EventInfo.tpl (so I do not have to go all the way through registration to test the logic). I am fairly new to smarty, so am unsure if I can use your suggested $form->get( 'event_type_id') in the template to pull out the event type id. Should I just wrap it in {php} tags with the rest of my statement?

I must not be using the chat room correctly, I can see others chating - but people are not responding to me. It seems pretty straightforward, so I am unsure what I am doing wrong. In any case, would someone mind answering this:

1. Get the event_type_id
2. Check if it is type 3
3. If yes, display text and link on the page
4. If no, do nothing

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. you need to hang around the chat room for some time. if u leave immediately folks dont get a chance to respond. and we are not checking it all the time (its a bit asynchronous)

2. we expose event_type_id to smarty. so in your ThankYou.tpl you can use the syntax:

{if $event.event_type_id == 3}
{else}
{/if}

I will hang around longer next time. The snippet did exactly what I needed, thank you. Is there a reference which lists the variables I have access to? I looked and can't locate one.

Thanks again.

the variables exposed are different for different pages. easiest way is to use smartyDebug=1 GET parameter in url
