Custom Block Issue

Permalink August 07, 2014 at 2:15 PM

Hi,

I built two similar blocks for a client so they could easily add a heading and content and I could style it anyway I wanted. My blocks work except when the client uses the "Insert Link to Page", the link goes to the dynamic cID instead of the permalink. I think my code is just missing a little bit of code to translate the cID link into a permalink. Any insight or fix would be greatly appreciated! (I know there's a Designer Block addon but the client has used my custom block in a lot of places and has no budget for me to go in and convert them all to a Designer addon. I'm hoping a quick fix to my custom blocks would solve this easily!)

The first block is like the Content Block. Here are the files and code for this block:

add.php

<?php
defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die(_("Access Denied."));
$this->inc('form_setup_html.php');
?>

controller.php

<?php
defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die(_("Access Denied."));
   class TCISideColumnBoxBlockController extends BlockController {
      protected $btTable = 'btTCISideColumnBox';
      protected $btInterfaceWidth = "600";
      protected $btInterfaceHeight = "400";
      public function getBlockTypeDescription() {
         return t("Adds a side column box to the sidebar.");
      }
      public function getBlockTypeName() {
         return t("Side Column Box");
      }
   }
?>

      <field name="heading" type="C" size="36"></field>
      <field name="bodycontent" type="X2"></field>
   </table>
</schema>

edit.php

<?php

$this->inc('form_setup_html.php');

I'm not an expert PHP programmer, but I can usually figure my way around.
