making PageMain.php work...

Ok, what is the trick for making BxxxxPageMain to work?

I tried to create a module and I end up with a box inside a box...

in my module.php I have

        function actionHome () {
             
        if(!$this->_iProfileId){
         $this->_oTemplate->displayAccessDenied ();
          return;
        }
    
      
        $this->_oTemplate->pageStart();
        bx_import ('PageMain', $this->_aModule);
        $sClass = $this->_aModule['class_prefix'] . 'PageMain';
        $oPage = new $sClass ($this);


        echo $oPage->getCode();
   
        $this->_oTemplate->addCss ('main.css');
        $this->_oTemplate->addCss ('unit.css');
        $this->_oTemplate->addCss ('HTML5Games_select.css');
           
        $this->_oTemplate->pageCode(_t('_ss_HTML5Games_page_title_home'), false, false); 
        }      
   
in my PageMain.php I have

    function getBlockCode_ShowGames(){
    return MsgBox(_t('_ss_HTML5Games_no_games'));    
    }

Why do I get Games Block inside the HTML5 Games block?

The HTML5 Games block shouldn't even show up.

It's driving me nuts!

Thanks!

That code i nearly identical to what i use. It looks fine.

What does your template class look like? Any custom functions in it? Is the parent class BxDolTwigTemplate?

The only thing i can think of is that it's not using the proper getCode and pageCode functions.

Well I have another module, I just ripped the guts from it.  LOL  IDK what I did wrong!

Not totally sure, but I believe it has something to do with your using a template page in the actionHome section. Most of my custom modules use the default BxDolTwigModule pages, and my actionHome section is like this:

function actionHome ()
    {
        parent::_actionHome(_t('_cf_organizations_page_title_home'));
    }

For those that I needed to do something a lil different, I copied the default code from the BxDolTwigModule.php page in inc/classes. Like so:

function _actionHome ($sTitle)
    {
        $this->_oTemplate->pageStart();
        bx_import ('PageMain', $this->_aModule);
        $sClass = $this->_aModule['class_prefix'] . 'PageMain';
        $oPage = new $sClass ($this);
        echo $oPage->getCode();
        $this->_oTemplate->addCss (array('unit.css', 'main.css', 'twig.css'));
        $this->_oTemplate->pageCode($sTitle, false, false);
    }

So, I am guessing your problem is with this:

$this->_oTemplate->pageCode(_t('_ss_HTML5Games_page_title_home'), false, false); 

 
That is the reason i asked what the template class file looks like. As that function is part of the template class and depending on which parent class is defined in his template class may affect how the pageCode function works.

 You mean I may actually be on the right track? (lol - just kidding)

OR....

I could have been missing page_500.html from my template folder.  LOL!

Now it works!

Thanks for all the help.
