Load PHP code into Static Page

I would like to load a php-code into a specific static page:
This code lists all tags:
Code: Select all
<?php
// Returns an array with all the tags
$items = getTags();
foreach ($items as $tag) {
echo 'Tag name: ' . $tag->name();
}
?>
How could I load that code on
specific static page only. Is it possible?

You have to add the code in a template.
In the template index.php you can define an if condition for the template with the php code.

There is a snippet plugin: PHP Shortcode Snippets ($4)
I haven't tried it but it could work for you.
On the template add:
Code: Select all
<?php $slug = $page->slug();
echo 'slug='.$slug;
?>
Load any page and this will show you/confirm which page you are on.
Then you can try in the template something like:
Code: Select all
<?php
if ($page->isStatic() && $slug=='thePageYouWant') {
include "pathToTheCode.php";
}
?>
I haven't tested this but used versions of it so it should work.

That's interesting, it would solve my "problem". Do you know which is the php-condition to show the tags only to a specific page-url-slug?

Thank you very much for the suggestion!
Few years ago I bought "PHP Shortcode Snippets", the problem is that it does not work with Php 8 (only does with php7) and their author don't reply so I can't use it at all :/
If anyone has php knowledge I can send him the Plugin to try to update it for Php 8.x

index.php
Code: Select all
<?php
if($WHERE_AM_I == 'page' && !empty($page->template())) {
include(THEME_DIR_PHP . $page->template() . '.php');
}
?>
Code: Select all
<?php
$items = getTags();
foreach ($items as $tag) {
echo '<p>' . $tag->name() . '</p>';
}
?>
When creating or editing an entry, specify the name of the template in the parameters (in my example, tag) without extension .php and everything works as you need.

@Kamikaze,
I would be happy to have a go at tweaking the snippet code. I had actually thought about exploring building a plugin that does that but... why reinvent the wheel?
You msg or mail me.

You have two possiblities.
1) Add an if condition to the template
You can enclose your code with the if condition:
Code: Select all
<?php
if ($page->slug() == "page-url-slug") {
$items = getTags();
foreach ($items as $tag) {
echo 'Tag name: ' . $tag->name();
}
}
?>
You can use an own template, for example
page-url-slug.php.
In this case you can modify the section $WHERE_AM_I in the
index.php of your theme.
For example:
Code: Select all
if ($WHERE_AM_I == 'page') {
if ($page->slug() == "page-url-slug") {
include(THEME_DIR_PHP.'page-url-slug.php');
}
else {
include(THEME_DIR_PHP.'page.php');
}
} else {
include(THEME_DIR_PHP.'home.php');
}
