How do you call a user name or ID using mustache?

I guess it must be possible, but I just can't figure out for example:

How would I have to decode this

<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot.'/user/view.php?id='.$USER->id.'&amp;course='.$COURSE->id;?>

so that I can get it to work in a template that I'm trying to make in a Boost version of Aardvark Postitnote?

Strangely enough I have got the dropdown Show/Hide toggle to work, which was a doddle as it's just JS & HTML.

But what I am trying to do with the following is harder and I can't seem to find anything that explains it in the Moodle Documentation about creating a Template, either that or I am searching using the wrong words!

<?php echo $CFG->wwwroot.'/user/view.php?id='.$USER->id.'&amp;course='.$COURSE->id;?>

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Mary

Hi Mary,

Many ways to do this:

  • Add the values to different parts of the template data and reform in the template.
  • Create a moodle_url object with param() calls and output (out()) that as one bit of template data then use three bracket {{{myurl}}} substitution within a 'href' or whatever you're using.

Hi Gareth,

Thanks for pointers for this...I managed to get it to work. Took me ages but finally got there.

I was a bit rusty and had forgotten lots of things about PHP and such and made some silly errors.

I ended up following Urs Hunklers CleanM theme...which I found very helpful and relatively easy to understand.

Cheers

Mary
