edit left column / module

[waxdaddy]

Is it possible to access the results from a search in a module hooked into the left column? I only want the module to display on a search results page.

 

I'm writing a faceted nav menu and looking for the best solution.

So as usual no reply at all... let alone anything of any use...

 

Wouldn't be so bad if the bloody software had ANY COMMENTS! or some DOCUMENTATION ffs

Edit your module's tpl file and add below code:

 

{if $page_name == 'search'}

 

your modules code here

 

{/if}

 

By adding this if module will be displayed only in search result page.

Thats not exactly what i was asking. I want to be able to access my search results from the module, ie to display faceted navigation links...

So to anybody else who might want to do something like this, you can access search results from any blocks template via smarty. all the variables assigned to smarty are available globally unless you specifiy a scope when you assign it.

 

So if in my search results template the data was stored in $search_results, you could just do {$search_results} in any other template used on that page and access the results
