How to sent manual variable to loadTemplate

[alexxsav]

Hello.

I have some customization in product.tpl. I add manual variable and want to use it in other template file. I input this template file like: $this->loadTemplate('customtemplate');
But i cant get access to this variable, and have to write creation again - its not useful.
Any advise?

Hi,

if you assign the variable into $this->{variable} then you can access to this value from another templates.

Thanks^ but can you explain what you mean?

Hi,

If I understand properly, this code in a template will help you:

Code Select Expand


...
...
$this->your_variable = 'some value';
...
$this->loadTemplate('customtemplate');
...
...


In the customtemplate you can access to the variable by way:

Code Select Expand


...
...
echo $this->your_variable;
...
...
