I ask a whole lot of questions around here and I really appreciate the support of the members.
I found a solution to my problem and thought I would post the results. If someone is looking for;
how to embed product quantity in your node-product.tpl.php
This code adds your new region
template.php
<?php
function YOURTEMPLATENAME_regions() {
return array(
'left' => t('left sidebar'),
'right' => t('right sidebar'),
'navbar' => t('navigation bar'),
'content_top' => t('content top'),
'content_bottom' => t('content bottom'),
'inline_author' => t('inline author'),
'header' => t('header'),
'footer' => t('footer'),
'closure_region' => t('closure'),
'quantity_region' => t('quantity region'),
);
}
?>This code makes sure you can add a region to your node
template.php
<?php
function _phptemplate_variables($hook, $vars = array()) {
// code can go here
switch($hook) {
case 'node' :
if ($vars['page'] /* the equivolent of $page in node.tpl.php */ != 0) {
$vars['quantity_region']= theme_blocks('quantity_region');
}
break;
}
// more code can go here
return $vars;
}
?>This code loads your new region
node-product.tpl.php
<?php
if ($quantity_region):
?><?php
print $quantity_region;
?><?php
endif;
?>Finally, I only wanted the number, no other items of the block. This was a very customized site, which I'll show when it goes public, so here is that final code.
template.php
<?php
// The default function from uc_cart.module.
function phptemplate_uc_cart_block_content() {
global $user;
if (variable_get('uc_cart_show_help_text', FALSE)) {
$output = '<span class="cart-help-text">'
. variable_get('uc_cart_help_text', t('Click title to display cart contents.'))
.'</span>';
}
$output .= '<div id="block-cart-contents">';
$items = uc_cart_get_contents();
$item_count = 0;
if (!empty($items)) {
foreach ($items as $item) {
if (is_array($item->data['attributes']) && !empty($item->data['attributes'])) {
$display_item = module_invoke($item->module, 'cart_display', $item);
}
$total += ($item->price) * $item->qty;
$item_count += $item->qty;
}
}
else {
$output .= ''. t('') .'';
}
$output .= '</div>';
$item_text = format_plural($item_count, '1', '@count');
$view = '('. l(t('View cart'), 'cart', array('rel' => 'nofollow')) .')';
if (variable_get('uc_checkout_enabled', TRUE)) {
$checkout = ' ('. l(t('Checkout'), 'cart/checkout', array('rel' => 'nofollow')) .')';
}
// $output .= '<table class="cart-block-summary-table"><tbody class="cart-block-summary-tbody">'
// .'<tr class="cart-block-summary-tr"><td class="cart-block-summary-items">'
// . $item_text .'</td><td class="cart-block-summary-total">'
// .'<strong>'. t('Total:') .'</strong> '. uc_currency_format($total) .'</td></tr>';
$output .= $item_text;
if ($item_count > 0) {
// $output .= '<tr><td colspan="2" class="cart-block-summary-checkout">'. $view . $checkout .'</td></tr>';
}
// $output .= '</tbody></table>';
return $output;
}
?>The code could be cleaned up a lot, but its a good start.
