Hooks Used

If the add-on is an extension, and ties into ExpressionEngine's core files, it will use ExpressionEngine hooks. We are listing any hooks the add-on uses for developers to have an easier time locating other add-ons that they can reference for their own work.

  2. template_post_parse

Once you get used to using this and having all these variables available, you might wonder how you got along without it. Super handy, simple…a default install.

Awesome add-on.

Note on using get:* in conditionals (useful for query string stuff). Use {if get:var}{if:else}{/if} for !empty/empty. “{get:var}” == “” is like $_GET[‘var’] == “” instead of empty, “{get:var}” != “” is like !empty($_GET[‘var’]).
