Hi All,

I created a if statment so that a price box would show on certain pages, however I have now changed to friendly URL’s and i cant seem to get it to work now.

The code I was using is below, could someone please help me with what I need to change to get it to work again.

thanks

Current code

<?php
$id = (int)($_GET['id']);
if ($id=="3" || $id=="4" || $id=="9" || $id=="10" ||$id=="11" || $id=="12" || $id=="13" || $id=="17" || $id=="18" || $id=="19" || $id=="20" || $id=="21" || $id=="22" || $id=="23" || $id=="24" || $id=="25" || $id=="26" || $id=="27" || $id=="28" || $id=="16")
{
echo "<div class=\"price_top\"></div>";
echo "<div class=\"price_midd\">[*box2*]</div>";
echo "<div class=\"price_bott\"></div>";
}
else
{
}
?>

The problem is probably with your original links; when not using friendly URLs your key->value pairs start with & because the index.php?id=xx is using the starting ?, but with friendly URLs there’s no starting ?, so your first key->value pair has to have the ? prefix.

It’s possible that you just need to refresh the site cache to reset all the links in all the pages.

cant you do

$id = $modx->documentObject['id'];

if ($id=="3" || $id=="4" || $id=="9" || $id=="10" ||$id=="11" || $id=="12" || $id=="13" || $id=="17" || $id=="18" || $id=="19" || $id=="20" || $id=="21" || $id=="22" || $id=="23" || $id=="24" || $id=="25" || $id=="26" || $id=="27" || $id=="28" || $id=="16")
{
echo "<div class=\"price_top\"></div>";
echo "<div class=\"price_midd\">[*box2*]</div>";
echo "<div class=\"price_bott\"></div>";
}
else
{
}

that way you’ll be getting the id of the page no matter what the friedly url is set to...
