solved Help with "Call to a member function getModuleLink() on string"

[SIWA_Fabian]

Hello Guys

Can anybody help me with this problem?

A module i bought for a shop makes this call in one of its TPLs:

href="{$link->getModuleLink('b2bregistration', 'b2b', array(), true)|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}"

The result if the following error:

 

This issue happens in the hook "displayCustomerAccount". Not every customer is effected. Sofar I have no clue on why which one is affected and another is not.

I dumped $link right before the hook
 

{block name='display_customer_account'}
	{dump($link)}
	{hook h='displayCustomerAccount'}
{/block}

and inside the TPL-File of the module.
 

<a class="col-lg-4 col-md-6 col-sm-6 col-xs-12" href="{$link->getModuleLink('b2bregistration', 'b2b', array(), true)|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}" title="{l s='Create Account as B2B' d='Shop.Theme.Customeraccount'}">
	<span class="link-item">
		<i class="fal fa-suitcase"></i>
		{dump($link)}<br/>
		{l s='Create Account as B2B' d='Shop.Theme.Customeraccount'}
	</span>
</a>

 

These are the Results:

1. working customer:
   
2. not working customer (i removed the function inside the href so the dump gets executed):
   

 

The module in question is the first one to be executed inside the hook.

Does anybody have clues why the Link-Object gets removed for one customer and replaced by the string?
Can anybody give insight on how I might find the place where the Link-Object gets replaced?
How should I best search the code to find Sections which might be responsible?

 

 

Thanks in Advance for your help.

 

Best Regards

Fabian

{url entity='module' name='b2bregistration' controller='myController' params=['paramKey1' => $paramValue1]}

or

{$this->context->link->getModuleLink('b2bregistration', 'b2b', [], null, null, null, true)}

The first one helped just fine.

Thanks a lot!
