load one module variable to another

[nsarsalan]

Hi 

 

   

 

i have  module, product discount countdown which makes separate block which loads discount price products and shows timer

 

 

module is using following code to display countdown timer

  <div id="defaultCountdownc{$countdown.id_product}"></div>

i wana load it in featured deals section can i use it?

It depends.

You must edit this 'featured deals' module's core php file. In the hook function where you want to display the timer, you must include the php file of the countdown module. Instantiate it, then run all the functions and assign the same variable.

 

OR

 

if you launch both modules, you can try running Module::getInstanceByName(''countdownmodulename') instead of having to include the other one. But again, the required steps change depending on the module's configuration.

 

Not easy at all

Note that, if you are on 1.4, you might want to have a go with $smarty->getTemplateVars('countdown');
