Any idea about How can I pass hidden values between 2 expression engine templates?
I don't want to use PHP code, is there any plugin or module?
Thanks
Highly recommend using Session Variables.
On your first page:
{exp:session_variables:set name="talking" value="nonsense"}
On your second page:
{exp:session_variables:get name="talking"}
Then you can always delete it afterwards:
{exp:session_variables:delete name="talking"}
If you want to deal with POST variables and set it on the first page via a form submission, then you can get it easily with Mo' Variables:
{post:talking}
What you may be looking for is an add-on called Stash . I think that would do exactly what you need!

I have a big problem with this. I implemented almost every answer on this kind of questions.
I know for the thing about regex and viewState, and this is how mine looks - regex
And the Cookie Manager is here also - cookie manager
In POST request i changed the javax.faces.ViewState value into ${jsfViewState} .
And the third Sampler with GET request, which represent the home screen value when im login, returns me on login page.
Really can't find what could be problem anymore. I tried almost everything! Did i missed something?
You need to put your Regular Expression Extractor as a child of the 1 - /Login.xhtmlrequest.
You don't need to escape quotation marks, you should be rather escaping dots, but in the most recent JMeter versions it is not requred.
Depending on your application implementation you may also need to add JSESSIONID as a part of your URL
I would recommend using
Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination to double check ${jsfViewState} variable value
Using "RegExp Tester" mode of the View Results Tree listener to test your regular expression against live data
As a last resort you can consider using an alternative way of recording a JMeter test. It is a cloud-based proxy which can automatically detect dynamic values and perform correlation for you, check out How to Cut Your JMeter Scripting Time by 80% article for more details.
Need a way to pass a value between to pages using URL query strings if possible. However everytime I add "?customquery=customvalue" at the end it ends up to the 404 page of the website.
I want to basically make it look like this.
https://example.com/somedepartment/sample.nsf/page/hello+world?customquery=customvalue
hello+world is a document that is equivalent to a webpage.
I tried this plus a javascript that collects the strings after the number sign and it works.
https://example.com/somedepartment/sample.nsf/page/hello+world#customvalue
However, I couldn't use the hash sign because they told me not to use it and use another unique symbol instead. I am not aware of any symbols that could work the same with hash sign. If there is, please enlighten me.
Apparently, I was able to find an answer.
https://example.com/somedepartment/sample.nsf/page/hello+world?OpenDocument&RandomParam=sample
Now I could pass values by means of this format. Basically it has to be preceded by "OpenDocument" parameter before putting custom ones.

I'm relatively new to Expression Engine, and as I'm learning it I am seeing some stuff missing that WordPress has had for a while. A big one for me is shortcodes, since I will use these to allow CMS users to place more complex content in place with their other content.
I'm not seeing any real equivalent to this in EE, apart from a forthcoming plugin that's in private beta.
As an initial test I'm attempting to fake shortcodes by using delimited strings (e.g. #foo#) in the content field, then using a regex to pull those out and pass them to a function that can retrieve the content out of EE's database.
This brings me to a second question, which is that in looking at EE's API docs, there doesn't appear to be a simple means of retrieving the channel entries programmatically (thinking of something akin to WP's built-in get_posts function).
So my questions are:
a) Can this be done?
b) If so, is my method of approaching it reasonable? Or is there something stupidly obvious I'm missing in my approach?
To reiterate, my main objective here is to have some means of allowing people managing content to drop a code in place in their content that will be replaced with channel content.
Thanks for any advice or help you can give me.
Here's a simple example of the functionality you're looking for.
1) Start by installing Low Replace.
2) Create two Global Variables called gv_hello and gv_goodbye with the values "Hello" and "Goodbye" respectively.
3) Put this text into the body of an entry:
[say_hello]
Nice to see you.
[say_goodbye]
4) Put this into your template, wrapping the Low Replace tag around your body field.
{exp:low_replace
find="[say_hello]|[say_goodbye]"
replace="{gv_hello}|{gv_goodbye}"
multiple="yes"
}
{body}
{/exp:low_replace}
5) It should output this into your browser:
Hello
Nice to see you.
Goodbye
Obviously, this is a really simple example. You can put full blown HTML into your global variable. For example, we've used that to render a complex, interactive graphic that isn't editable but can be easily dropped into a page by any editor.
Unfortunately, due to parse order issues, EE tags won't work inside Global Variables. If you need EE tags in your short code output, you'll need to use Low Variables addon instead of Global Variables.
Continued from the comment:
Do you have examples of the kind of shortcodes you want to support/include? Because i have doubts if controlling the page-layout from a text-field or wysiwyg-field is the way to go.
If you want editors to be able to adjust layout or show/hide extra parts on the page, giving them access to some extra fields in the channel, is (imo) much more manageable and future-proof. For instance some selectfields, a relationship (or playa) field, or a matrix, to let them choose which parts to include/exclude on a page, or which entry from another channel to pull content from.
As said in the comment: i totally understand if you want to replace some #foo# tags with images or data from another field (see other answers: nsm-transplant, low_replace). But, giving an editor access to shortcodes and picking them out, is like writing a template-engine to generate ee-template code for the ee-template-engine.
Using some custom fields to let editors pick and choose parts to embed is, i think, much more manageable.
That being said, you could make a plugin to parse the shortcodes from a textareas content, and then program a lot, to fetch data from other modules you want to support. For channel entries you could build out of the channel data library by objectiveHTML. https://github.com/objectivehtml/Channel-Data
I hear you, I too miss shortcodes from WP -- though the reason they work so easily there is the ubiquity of the_content(). With the great flexibility of EE comes fewer blanket solutions.
I'd suggest looking at NSM Transplant. It should fit the bill for you.
There is also a plugin called Shortcode, which you can find here at
Devot-ee
A quote from the page:
Shortcode aims to allow for more dynamic use of content by authors and
editors, allowing for injection of reusable bits of content or even
whole pieces of functionality into any field in EE
I have a small Resharper Template I have written for Null check of a function Parameter (C#).
Check.IsNotNull($param$, "$param$"); - Suggest Parameter - #1
I can now null check the function paramters one by one. But I want to be able to null check all the paramters at once through a template. Is it Possible in Resharper?. Is there someting like a "$Foreach" using which I can loop through parameter variables and write the code to check them one by one ?. (without writing out the foreach into the code)
I see that the "Alt + Ins" does something similar. (Taking all Properties on the class and making them as parameters of a constructor). So hoping that there's a way out.
Sadly, there isn't a way to do that right now. I created an issue at youtrack.jetbrains.net though: RSRP-263951 Live templates: ability to create templates that write code for each parameter/property/field etc.. Vote there if you want to see this feature in future versions of ReSharper.
I know how to successfully use arguments in drupal's views module, but when it "filters" based on those arguments it uses "=" in the where clause of the SQL statement. However, I would like to use "like" instead of "=" in the where clause of the SQL statement so I can pass in, say the title of a node, as an argument and then show all nodes that CONTAIN the title passed in. I am not interested in grabbing only the nodes where the title is exactly the same as the title passed in. Does anyone know how I can do this? Is this possible?
one possible solution would be to generate the view by code with your required query.
I am looking for the same solution. It looks like you can modify the query using the views_views_pre_execute hook. The link below has a pretty good explanation. Haven't tried it yet but giving it a shot now...
http://drupal.org/node/409808
You could export the view, which outputs the views-generated query as code, then modify the query to suit your needs, and load it programatically (http://www.chilipepperdesign.com/2010/01/15/how-to-programmatically-create-views-in-drupal-6)
In drupal 7 you can use views query alter to generate your custom querys:
Take a look at this example: https://gist.github.com/4001074
I don't think you can do this. See here (https://www.drupal.org/node/1578564):
There are no options for selecting which operator should be used with contextual filters (save the exclude option). All default to is equal to.
