EE2: Custom module, direct function call

Just a quick note, we don’t directly support module coding questions in this forum. Moving to the Modules forum.

That AID tag should get parsed and result in an integer. If the template parser doesn’t change the AID tag into an integer something is wrong. These tags are case sensitive so maybe you can try a few different ways of spelling Crm. To test for your method you could look up the action id in the database and use that directly.

if i change the url to: http://www.example.com/index.php?ACT=55 it doesn´t work either.

what is the normal way of executing a module function directly?

You can write a tag in a normal template:

{exp:crm:logout}

that should trigger your method. I think the normal way is posting the ACT in a hidden input. I haven’t tried using it in the url directly. Also I found that in order to get output you need to use the output class. The fastes way to see if your method is called is to have it generate an error. Those always generate output 😊

will try that tomorrow….

Somehow the {path="logout"} is able to do it, so why can’t I.

I will post back my results.

Hmm,

http://www.example.com/index.php?ACT=58 works, had the wrong ID. (should do a mysql refresh after a remove/install 😊 )

but that also states that using the ID is not a good idea.

any other options why {AID:Crm:logout} is not replaced?

Add file logout.php and put into them your logout implementation:

<?php

header(‘Content-Type: application/json’);

$_SESSION[usr]->logout();

echo json_encode([‘message’ => ‘ok’]); And call this file with AJAX:

[removed] function logout() { $.ajax({ url: ‘/logout.php’ }).then(function (res) { [removed].href = ‘/’; }); } [removed]

Log out

It’s always hard to build a custom CRM, but easier with Ergonized 😊
