I'm just wondering if {serendipity_hookPlugin hook="entries_footer"} will ever produce any actual output in entries_archives.tpl or entries_summary.tpl.
Doesn't seem like it as far as I have seen - why are these in there anyway?

Hi!
I have coded custom templates with specific plugins that use this hook on pages like these. Other people might have as well; just because spartaucs s9y plugins don'T use it, mustn't mean that other installations don't have custom plugins that specifically output stuff on these pages.
Regards,
Garvin

Digging this up again: Is there any (preferably Smarty) way to check whether the hook actually gives something back?

Hi!
You could maybe use {capture} around the hook execution and check if the output is != ''...?!

Weird.
If I, i.e. use this in the entries.tpl:
Code: Select all
{capture name="foo"}
{serendipity_hookPlugin hook="entries_footer"}
{/capture}
{if $smarty.capture.foo != ''}
{* my conditional smarty code *}
{/if}
it
still emits "my conditional smarty code" even if $smarty.capture.foo
is empty ... am I using this the wrong way?

Try this:
Code: Select all
{capture assign='foo'}
{serendipity_hookPlugin hook="entries_footer"}
{/capture}
{if $foo !=''}
....
{/if}
It is also possible that {if $foo} will evalutate to true if it is not blank... didn't test it.

More like boring, rather simple new template coming together.

Well, it is better than sitting around doing nothing!

Actually, no, it's not. Still does not emit the hook results, even if there are any.
But never mind, I found another solution for this particular project.

Its not going to emit the results, unless you emit them because the results were captured and assigned to {$foo}.
So, if you want the results displayed together with some other conditional thing, you should do:
Code: Select all
{capture assign='foo'}
{serendipity_hookPlugin hook="entries_footer"}
{/capture}
{if $foo !=''}
<p>{$foo}</p> {* if you need it as its own element *}
{* your conditional smarty code *}
{/if}
... at least, I think that should work.
