MODX 2.8.4: userinfo with extended array doesnt work?

fritzkola · December 22, 2022, 5:50pm

Hi,

I have so informations for user in extended section.
for example a container “stats” with “contacts:5”

In UpdateProfile I get it via [[+stats.contacts]].

but with:

[[!+modx.user.id:userinfo=extended.stats.contacts]]

there show me nothing.

What do I make wrong?

thank you in advance.

bye
Chris

Looking at the code, it seems that it is just one level to deep to work with this output modifier.

modxcms/revolution/blob/156a71c760577ba6e8910b66cc52b4631c572d86/core/model/modx/filters/modoutputfilter.class.php#L562


      
          
          case 'userinfo':
              /* Returns the requested modUser or modUserProfile data (input: user id) */
              if (!empty($output)) {
                  $key = (!empty($m_val)) ? $m_val : 'username';
                  $userInfo= null;
                  /** @var modUser $user */
                  if ($user= $this->modx->getObjectGraph('modUser', '{"Profile":{}}', $output)) {
                      $userData = array_merge($user->toArray(), $user->Profile->toArray());
                      unset($userData['cachepwd'], $userData['salt'], $userData['sessionid'], $userData['password'], $userData['session_stale']);
                      if (strpos($key, 'extended.') === 0 && isset($userData['extended'][substr($key, 9)])) {
                          $userInfo = $userData['extended'][substr($key, 9)];
                      } elseif (strpos($key, 'remote_data.') === 0 && isset($userData['remote_data'][substr($key, 12)])) {
                          $userInfo = $userData['remote_data'][substr($key, 12)];
                      } elseif (isset($userData[$key])) {
                          $userInfo = $userData[$key];
                      }
                  }
                  $output = $userInfo;
              } else {
                  $output = null;

I suspect you have to write a custom snippet (or a custom output modifier).

thank you.

I am thinking how I could cutom output modifier to extend these feature.
what is “remote_data.” ?

The easiest solution is probably to use a custom snippet to output all the user data at once.

Something like this:

Snippet “outputUserData”

<?php
$tpl = $modx->getOption('tpl', $scriptProperties, '');
$profile = $modx->user->getOne('Profile');
if ($profile){
    $userData = array_merge($modx->user->toArray(), $profile->toArray());
    return $modx->getChunk($tpl, $userData);
}

Chunk “myUserTpl”

<h2>[[+username]]</h2>
<div>
    [[+email]]<br>
    [[+extended.stats.contacts]]
</div>

Snippet Call

[[!outputUserData? &tpl=`myUserTpl`]]

The class modUser has a field remote_data. I don’t think that it is used anywhere in MODX.
Probably one of those legacy fields that had a purpose once.
