Newsletter and InsertTags

**zlobec** · 12/10/2014, 20:52

I'm customising the native newsletter and I have problems with the InsertTags. I'm trying to insert modules and some modules decode ok, but some dont. Especially those from the calendar module.

I'm using this insertTags like this:

Code:

{{insert_content::36|decodeEntries}}
and
{{insert_module::13|decodeEntries}}

On the class side, I'm converting them back with the

Code:

 $this->replaceInsertTags

But some work, some dont... strange... Any ideas why?

Did you try with the $blnCache parameter?

PHP Code:


$this->replaceInsertTags('{{insert_content::36}}', false);

ps There is no flag "decodeEntries"

Yes, i'm replacing the tags with the $blnCache parameter. It only works on the html type modules... eventlist, calendar or other it does not work. Is it possible this is by design for newsletter module only?

Yeah, thanks for the mistype for decodeEntities

I code mostly nights

I tested it on Contao 3.4. Put {{insert_content::317}} into the newsletter. The ID is the ID of an event content element, not the ID of the event itself. Sent a test newsletter and it worked, without doing something with $this->replaceInsertTags() in a class.
