SOLVED: CB ContentModule, different content depending or it is CB, GJ or other

Hi,

Using CB Content Module in a sidebar-right position of my template, I want to show different content depending on the page-type:

• CB User profile page
• GroupJive Group page
• or any other CB (registration, list etc), GroupJive (groups category etc.) or Joomla page

I think it's difficult (or a hell to maintain) to use the Menu Assignment (tab) for it, as CB profile pages and GJ group pages doesn't have their own menu item.

What would be the best way to do that?

Something like:
How can you test the kind of JoomlaPolis page-type? I think I can't use [cb:url location for it as I am using a sh404sef extension which rewrites the URL's.

What would be a good way to get this job done?

Noa

It has no substitutions for that, but that's a really good feature to have. I believe best way to support this is to just parse current URL and turn that into a substitution that you can then condition against. Have added a feature ticket to review implementing this. Should be relatively simple, but don't have time today and will take a look tomorrow.

They do, but it's work to maintain them. You'd need to create a menu item per user profile. Not really a limitation of CB, but just an annoyance of Joomla with menu assignment not supporting dynamic conditions (maybe one day!).

I think using the current URL wouldn't work in most cases, as a SEF extension like my sh404sef will totally rewrite the URL

If that wasn't the case, I could just use my Advanced Module Manager - Assignments (tab) - URL ( docs3.regularlabs.com/advancedmodulemanager/getting-started/introduction ) for that and test or it has something like "&task=userprofile" for CB or "&plugin=cbgroupjive" for GJ in it.

The last(resort) option of Advanced Module Manager is a custom created PHP code to decide, or a module will be displayed. Maybe you know a (light) PHP query to test (all website) pages or it is a, CB-profile, GJ-group or any other page?

Or, does somebody know how I can add a Joomla Tag (as used in articles) to my custom CB-profile en GJ-group template files? Advanced Module Manager has a Tag option, but I have no clue how to add a Joomla Tag (like CB_profile or CB_group) to my template files.

Hi Krileon,

I (finally) found my solution in docs4.regularlabs.com/advancedmodulemanager/going-further/using-custom-php-conditions . So for me, this ticket is solved ;-).

With kind regards, Noa
