SOLVED

block core template cms page

hello,

I need to call a custom phtml from a cms page. I did create this:

/app/design/frontend/Hoop/Contact/contact.phtml

and this is cms page:

{{block name="hoopcontact" template="Hoop_Contact::contact.phtml"}}

but is not shown.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Re: block core template cms page

@agiorgini,

You have to keep below routes.xml file code look like this,

 

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:App/etc/routes.xsd">
    <router id="standard">
        <route id="hoopcontact" frontName="hoopcontact">
            <module name="Hoop_Contact" />
        </route>
    </router>
</config>


You can't keep contact as frontName because contact is already used in Magento_Contact module.

 

You can keep hoop as frontName and access your url like, 

http://<my_server>/hoopcontact/index/display

Clear cache and remove var folder and check.

Re: block core template cms page

@agiorgini, you have to keep contact.phtml in your module. Here you have keep your template file inside directly theme folder,

First you have to create your module folder like, Magento_Contact if your core file from contact module.

 

After Create Module folder you can keep your template file inside templates/contact.phtml file.

 

In your question, Hoop/Contact is a theme name,

Re: block core template cms page

Hi Rakesh,

thanks for your answer. So I've created my Hoop/Contact module this is my /app/code/Hoop/Contact/etc/frontend/routes.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:App/etc/routes.xsd">
    <router id="standard">
        <route id="hoop" frontName="contact">
            <module name="Hoop_Contact" />
        </route>
    </router>
</config>

while this is my /app/code/Hoop/Contact/Controller/Index/Display.php:

<?php

namespace Hoop\Contact\Controller\Index;

use Magento\Framework\Controller\ResultFactory;

class Display extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action
{

    /**
     * @var \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\TypeListInterface
     */
    protected $_cacheTypeList;

    /**
     * @var \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\StateInterface
     */
    protected $_cacheState;

    /**
     * @var \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\Frontend\Pool
     */
    protected $_cacheFrontendPool;

    /**
     * @var \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory
     */
    protected $resultPageFactory;

    /**
     * @param Action\Context $context
     * @param \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\TypeListInterface $cacheTypeList
     * @param \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\StateInterface $cacheState
     * @param \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\Frontend\Pool $cacheFrontendPool
     * @param \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $resultPageFactory
     */
    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context,
        \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\TypeListInterface $cacheTypeList,
        \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\StateInterface $cacheState,
        \Magento\Framework\App\Cache\Frontend\Pool $cacheFrontendPool,
        \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $resultPageFactory
    )
    {
        die('here');
        parent::__construct($context);
        $this->_cacheTypeList = $cacheTypeList;
        $this->_cacheState = $cacheState;
        $this->_cacheFrontendPool = $cacheFrontendPool;
        $this->resultPageFactory = $resultPageFactory;
    }

    /**
     * Flush cache storage
     *
     */
    public function execute()
    {
        $this->_view->loadLayout();
        $this->_view->getLayout()->initMessages();
        $this->_view->getPage()->getConfig()->getTitle()->set(__('Hoop Contact Frontend Title'));
        /** @var \Magento\Framework\View\Result\Page $resultPage */
        $resultPage = $this->resultPageFactory->create();
        return $resultPage;
    }
}

then I try to browse: http://<my_server>/contact/index/display but I get 404. Where am I wrong here?

Many thanks

Re: block core template cms page

Hi,

I did but I still get 404 page... if I change frontName in routes.xml shouldn't I change it also somewhere else?

thanks

Re: block core template cms page

ok this is definitely weird: I get no 404 error now, but a page where there is a label "Customer login", which I don't have anywhere in my code. Also, I did put a die as first instruction, in both constructor and execute() of my Display class, but it doesn't walk through there...

Re: block core template cms page

@agiorgini 

 

have you installed module first?

 

Make sure module is active, you can check into app/etc/config.php

Module_Name => 1

If not then do setup upgrade then flush cache and check it.
