Using PDL button with articles in modules
Posted: 08 May 2013, 12:49
Hi Jan
One thing I have tried to do but failed to achieve was to use the PDL Button feature to:
1. Add a download file to an Article such as {phocadownload view=file|id=5|text=test|target=s}
2. Use that article within a module (say using NoNumber's very clever Modules Anywhere plugin or VTEM's Accordion module).
When I add the PDL link {phocadownload view=file|id=5|text=test|target=s} into the article then push the article into a module, then the resulting page displays the {phocadownload view=file|id=5|text=test|target=s} code rather than rendering it to show the correct file view.
Does this make sense Jan and is it a Phoca thing or a 3rd/4th party problem?
Hope you can help!

... The plugin is standard content plugin (with standard coding for Joomla! content), so if it works in content, everything is Ok there. I don't know any limitation there so cannot say exactly what can be wrong but try to test if the module surely reads the content plugins.
