Database Call from custom html module

More

Long story short, I am severely editing the product display page. I need to call upon the description (or else a custom field that is a replica of the description) in a custom html module on the same page.

These gives me the following error:
<?php echo $this->row->product_centers_description; ?>

or

<?php echo $this->element->product_description)); ?>

ERROR: Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in....

However, I can call upon it individually as shown below without errors, though that won't work because I can't make a new custom html for every single product page:

<?php $class = hikashop_get('class.product');
$prod = $class->get(2);
echo $prod->product_centers_description; ?>

Please help,
G

Hi,

I did not understand your message but the PHP code in modules is not the same than in views.
It is not possible to copy/past code in views directly in a module, the context is completely different.
After that, I don't know where you put your code so it is difficult to help you.

A module could be call in the product page but the module should read the product id directly in the url.

Can you show me, using the bottom code as a rough draft, how to call on "product_centers_description" using the ID directly from the URL? I really appreciate how excellent the customer service is around here. Thank you.

Let me simplify:

I need this code...

<?php $class = hikashop_get('class.product');
$prod = $class->get(1);
echo $prod->product_centers_description; ?>

To pull the "get(id)" from the url or some other way than "$this", because $this gives me errors:

retreatwell.com/index.php?option=com_hik...yout=show&Itemid=274

Hi,

You can load the product id using this code:
Code:
$product_id = (int)hikashop_getCID('product_id'); if(empty($product_id)) { $menus = $app->getMenu(); $menu = $menus->getActive(); if(empty($menu)){ global $Itemid; if(!empty($Itemid)){ $menus->setActive($Itemid); $menu = $menus->getItem($Itemid); } } if (is_object( $menu )) { jimport('joomla.html.parameter'); $category_params = new HikaParameter( $menu->params ); $product_id = $category_params->get('product_id'); } }

So combing the two would look something like this:
Code:
$product_id = (int)hikashop_getCID('product_id'); if(empty($product_id)) { $menus = $app->getMenu(); $menu = $menus->getActive(); if(empty($menu)){ global $Itemid; if(!empty($Itemid)){ $menus->setActive($Itemid); $menu = $menus->getItem($Itemid); } } if (is_object( $menu )) { jimport('joomla.html.parameter'); $category_params = new HikaParameter( $menu->params ); $product_id = $category_params->get('product_id'); } } $productClass = hikashop_get('class.product'); $prod = $productClass->get($product_id); echo $prod->product_centers_description;
