how do i access the configuration variables I created using the module manager?

They are available to code within the module as variables. For example, &path=Path;text;assets/modules/mymodule/ would be available as $path.

Don’t forget that if you want to access it within a function, you would most likely have to do a global $path; in the beginning of your function, unless you pass it to the function as an argument.

class MyClass{



public function functionName

{

global $status,$offline_message;





echo $status; //displays nothing

echo $offline_message; //displays nothing too!!

}



}

&path=Path;text;assets/modules/mymodule/

Why do we need the Path;text part of the declaration? Would this work: &path=assets/modules/mymodule/

&name = Description;datatype;value

               global $modx;

		// get module data

		$sql = "SELECT * " .

				"FROM ".$modx->getFullTableName("site_modules")." " .

				"WHERE name = ’ModuleName’"; //your own module name

		

		$rs = mysql_query($sql);

		

		$content = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs);



		// load module configuration

		$parameter = array();

		if(!empty($content["properties"]))

		{

			$tmpParams = explode("&",$content["properties"]);

			for($x=0; $x<count($tmpParams); $x++) 

			{

				$pTmp = explode("=", $tmpParams[$x]);

				$pvTmp = explode(";", trim($pTmp[1]));

				if ($pvTmp[1]==’list’ && $pvTmp[3]!="") $parameter[$pTmp[0]] = $pvTmp[3]; //list default

				else if($pvTmp[1]!=’list’ && $pvTmp[2]!="") $parameter[$pTmp[0]] = $pvTmp[2];

			}

		}

		extract($parameter, EXTR_SKIP);
