Author Topic: showing a Drupal block on one Civi event page (Read 1664 times)

I made a Drupal block that I'd like to show up on one event registration page in Civi.

In the "Page specific visibility settings" for the block, I am using "Show on only the listed pages". The, for the "pages" value
* When I use "civicrm/*" I expect to see the block on all Civi pages, and I do ...so that works.
* But when I use "civicrm/event/register?id=2&reset=1", I expect to see the block on the event registration page at that url, but I do not see the block on that page.

I have also unsuccessfully tried setting the "pages" value to things like:
civicrm/event/register?id=2*
civicrm/event/register*id=2*
civicrm/event/register\?id=2&reset=1

Can anyone help me configure this block so that it shows up on my event registration page?

Hopefully you are on Drupal 6 and 2.2. If so, a workaround is to create an alias first for the Event registration path. The trick here is to add an extra slash before the "?"

So the alias would be something like "event_registration" for the system path of civicrm/event/register/?id=1&reset=1 (notice the slash before the "?")

Once the alias is created, within the block's settings, use the alias to determine the pages it should or shouldn't show up on.

hope this helps
