PHP inside ezpages

[brandtim]

MODERATOR COMMENT: Adding eval() to arbitrarily execute random PHP or other code in the manner suggested here opens your site up to security risks.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I definately needed this feature. Here's an even simpler version.

Replace this:

<div><?php echo $var_pageDetails->fields['pages_html_text']; ?></div>

with this:

<div><?php eval(stripslashes('?>' . $var_pageDetails->fields['pages_html_text'])); ?></div>

This way you don't have worry about php being 'on' in the ezpage - you can make the code of the page html with php inside it (a lot easier).

<div><?php eval(stripslashes('?>'.$var_pageDetails->fields['pages_html_text'])); ?></div>

Verified this works in 1.3.5

Thanks for the simplification Tim.
I am starting to really appreciate the concatenation operator!

Be sure to thoroughly understand the security risks associated with using the eval() function.

I notice I can't input php with the default wysiwyg editor. It erases it and replaces it with a line break.

I'm wanting to replace ezpages with my own uploaded php pages to be wrapped by the site. Is there an easier way to do this than to have an include in the ezpage?

Before I discovered the eval() function, we used inline frames to present our PHP pages in the old infopages module. Passing variables can get tricky, but it works.

I'm good to use the eval function method. I just need to know how I can place php code into a page via a wysiwyg editor in ezpages. Like I said, the default embeded wysiwig is erasing my code. How are you guys doing this?

Hi,

We want to be able to use PHP inside our "Main" page, under the "Define Pages Editor", so that when we copy our site to our "test" site, the links to special items change to match that.

What do we have to do, for instance, to change this link to PHP code in the "Main" page?:

http://vtstuff.com/index.php/vt-capital-tree-souvenirs-c-63.html

I want the

http://vtstuff.com

to be changed according to the index location, ie; vtstuff.com vs. vtstuff.com/vtstuffwork

Can anyone tell me what we need to do?

Thanks.

OK, I got something to work to do this in the "Define Pages", but the same code won't work in the EZ Pages. That's OK for now, but it would be nice to be able to do it in an EZ Page

This is solely for the purpose of being able to COPY a site to a WORK area that has direct links to categories or products in the HTML code, so that the domain changes according to the site location.

Here's what I did to show the Product Info Page for an item:

<?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . 'index.php/buttermilk-ranch-dressing-marinade-drews-p-441.html'. ' ">' . 'Click here to check out Drews Buttermilk Ranch Dressing & Marinade' . '</a>';?>

Just embed this code into the Define Pages page you're working on, chaning the item link and description sections to your item.

Make sure you enter this in TEXT mode.

Note, our site uses SEO URL's.

Hello All,

I have been trying very hard to get this to work and could use some help. I have created a price list that draws from the database and want to make it so that users have to log in to see it. I have taken the steps below to make this work. I have described the results at the end. Any help would be appreciated.

1. I copied includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_page_default.php to includes/templates/*my template*/templates/

2. I modified the code in tpl_page_default.php to the following:

<div><?php echo $titlecheck=substr($var_pageDetails->fields[pages_title],0,5);
if ($titlecheck=="Print"){
eval(stripslashes('?>' . $var_pageDetails->fields['pages_html_text'])); }
else{echo $var_pageDetails->fields['pages_html_text']; }?></div>

3. I created a new Ez page called “Print” and a new page called “priceList_ezInclude.php”.

4. I inserted the following code into the Print ez page via the html box.

<php?

include (" http://www.blackoliveeastnursery.net/zenCart_boe/priceManager/priceList_ezInclude.php");

?>
<a href="http://www/zen-cart.com">Get Zenned</a>

5. I actived the “Page is SSL” button in the Admin > Tools > ez pages page for the Print ez page.

RESULT:

When I click on the “Print” link in the sidebox, I am sent to the Login page. After I log in, I am taken to the Print page, but the included page does not appear. All that is there is the include code below:

Print
<php?
include
(" http://www.blackoliveeastnursery.net/zenCart_boe/priceManager/priceList_ezInclude.php"); ?>
<a href="http://www/zen-cart.com">Get Zenned</a>

I have verified that the link to the included file is working, so that is not the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

I have also made the changed to the FCKeditor as suggested.

Same results.

thanks
