include twice in same template?

[bloggus]

Hi,

I have to use include twice ina template. Is there a better way, like maybe storing the first output, so it don't have to be generated twice?

{block name='product_info'}
	{include file='catalog/product-info.tpl'}
{/block}

..
..
..

{block name='product_info'}
	{include file='catalog/product-info.tpl'}
{/block}

 

Can I save the first include somehow and use it again below again?

Hi,
the best will be to use javascript instead of the second include and copy the content and paste it below.

Unfortunately, you did not include the version of Prestashop, the used theme of the template and possibly the content of the file product-info.tpl. Otherwise I would give you the whole code here.

sample:

{block name='product_info'}
	{include file='catalog/product-info.tpl'}
{/block}

..
..
..

{block name='product_info_copied'}
	<div id="copied-product-info"></div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
              document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
                setTimeout(myCopyContent('{$product.id}'), 500);
              });
     
              function myCopyContent(product_id) {
                var content = document.getElementById('product-description-short-'+product_id).innerHTML; /* copy html content */
                /* add content to your new div */
                document.getElementById('copied-product-info').innerHTML = content;
              }
     </script>
{/block}

See:

https://www.smarty.net/docsv2/en/language.function.include.tpl

 

Your example will be:

{block name='product_info'}
	{include file='catalog/product-info.tpl' assign=prod_info}
    {$prod_info nofilter}
{/block}

....
....
....
{$prod_info nofilter}

Thank you! I tried that before my post, but the result was bad and I see now I forgot the "nofilter"...
