Seeking basic run down of php and database

[Kyttias]

As for your code above, because the Sidebar widget is partially controlled on the AdminCP you will also have to make changes there. AdminCP > Module > Create New Module:


You could also probably manually do this in the database (in the _modules table), but it's just not being done with code alone. (Note: the Module Order slot controls the order in which the modules in the sidebar will appear, lower numbers are higher.)

I also notice your code above is only a setter but there is no getter. The money bar has a getter, so just add one similar above your code:

PHP Code:

public function getFavPetSB(){
        return $this->FavPetSB;
    } 


I also propose the following changes in your code:

PHP Code:

protected function setFavPetSB(){
        $mysidia = Registry::get("mysidia");

        $userfavpet = $mysidia->db->select("users_profile", array("favpet"), "username = '{$mysidia->user->username}'")->fetchColumn(); 
        if ($this->userfavpet == "0"){
            $this->FavPetSB = new Paragraph; 
            $this->FavPetSB->add(new Comment("<b>No Favorite Pet Set</b>"));
        }
        else{
            $adopt = new OwnedAdoptable($userfavpet);
            $this->FavPetSB = new Paragraph; 
            $this->FavPetSB->add(new Comment("<b>Favorite Pet!</b> <br/>
                <a href='/myadopts/manage/{$userfavpet}'><img src='{$adopt->getImage()}'></a>
                "));
        }

        $this->setDivision($this->FavPetSB);
    } 


Using "$adopt = new OwnedAdoptable($userfavpet);" you can also pull up data like {$adopt->getName()} and {$adopt->getCurrentLevel()}.

Lastly, the code you had looked familiar, but it's something that's slightly broken in the code itself, currently. Inside class_userprofile.php I'd replace the getFavpet function:

PHP Code:

 public function getFavpet(){ 
      if(is_numeric($this->favpet)){ 
          $adopt = new OwnedAdoptable($this->favpet); 
          $favimg = $adopt->getImage(); 
          $this->favpet = ($this->favpet == 0)?new Comment("None Selected"):new Link("levelup/click/{$this->favpet}", new Image($favimg), TRUE);  
      }  
      return $this->favpet;       
  } 


Because unfortunately, levelup/siggy/{$numberhere} is not an image, not even if you add a file extension to it.
