I’m also trying to use the session intergration exemple with no success, the reply of my script is always “not connected”…

I need to test if the current user of magento is connected and in this case to collect some informations about it…

Someone can help me

here is my script :

/* inclusion du fichier Mage.php */
require_once ‘magento_store/app/Mage.php’;
//umask(0);

$app = Mage::app(’default’);
Mage::getSingleton(’core/session’, array(’name’=>’frontend’));
$session = Mage::getSingleton(’customer/session’, array(’name’=>’frontend’));

/* test l’utilisateur est loggé ou pas */
if ($session->isLoggedIn()) {
echo “connected”;
} else {
echo “not connected”;

}

thanks for help

Hi Prashant

You will have to switch on template hints as Fido has already explained, in order to see the path.

Arg - Flash backs to High School English class! This was an admittadly late night post after digging around Magento code to get a better grasp on the inner workings of how Magento executes layout.
Anyway, some more concrete posts to come!

TERRIBLE.

This article is incoherent, not focused at all, and contains no valuable information.

the sad thing is that this is the best one out there.

Great post!
Question. How would you override controller? Or is it possible at all?

Thanks,

Hi Fido,

I am newbie in magneto commerce. I wanted to know how i can make ajax call in magento commerce actually i did it through method which simply call .php file by xmlhttp request and it’s worked but real problem is i need to place them outside means on root which is not correct. I want to use standard way calling them through contoller which i tried without success. I guess real problem is with url rewriting process because of which it’s not able to locate URL or php file if i use controller method.

Yep, that code is meant to be used on a CMS page, which you can create / edit / delete in the Admin area.

Comment on Using PHP code on a CMS page (custom Block/module) by Stephan

first thanks for this, great work!

But if I use this one in the layout configuration it doesn’t work!

i tried this in the layout area

instead of this in the html-area

{{block type=”company_example/view” message=”hello” template=”example/view.phtml”}}

both show up, but at the first call the message parameter is empty!

Whats the Problem?
