How to get Controller, Module, Action & Router Name in Magento

In most of the case you need to know the name of controller or module in order to debug. Simple one line code to get these.

1. Get Controller Name In Template Files:

$this->getRequest()->getControllerName();

2. Get Action Name In Template Files:

$this->getRequest()->getActionName(); //the function inside the controller

3. Get Router Name In Template Files:

$this->getRequest()->getRouteName();

One of the things that may sound easy to set are the top menu items, or the main menu items if you prefer.

Magento has its top menu reserved for category navigation. It’s pretty solid for displaying categories, even when there is a large number of them.

Newsletter auto-subscribe on create account and place order in Magento

By default Magento provides a Newsletter feature, which enables store administrators to send newsletters to customers who have registered to receive them. Since most customers tend not to opt-in to any email subscription related services, you might need to automatically subscribe customers when they register or place an order. In this article I’ll present code and simple Magento extension to make it easier for you to accomplish this task.

1. Manage attributes

Go to Catalogue -> Attributes -> Manage Attributes. Set up a new attribute at this page and call it ‘Boolean’. Set its ID as new_product. Under your advanced options, you will have the option to select it as a front end product. Do this. Now you simply have to add the new attribute to your custom attribute if you are using one. If not, set it to default. Save the new product.

You will now have a new product in your catalogue which has a Boolean flag set to yes. The next stage involves taking this new product icon and putting it in your front end.

2. Make it show

Now that you have a product icon with a Boolean flag, it’s time to make this show on your front end. This is achieved by accessing template files: templates/catalog/product/list.phtml and templates/catalog/product/view/media.phtml.

<?php if($_product->getNewProduct()) { ?>

<?php } ?>

<?php

$_img = '<img id="image" src="'.$this->helper('catalog/image')

->init($_product, 'image').'"

alt="'.$this->htmlEscape($this->getImageLabel()).'"

title="'.$this->htmlEscape($this->getImageLabel()).'" />';

echo $_helper->productAttribute($_product, $_img, 'image');

</div>

As you can see, above, your new product is shows in ‘$_product->getNewProduct’. The next step is to ensure that your CSS is set up to show your product with Boolean flag. You need to make the product_class relative to the position of the icon. So:

.products-grid .product-image { position: relative; display:block; width:244px; height:156px; margin:0 0 10px; }

.new-product {

position: absolute;

right: 0;

top: 0;

width: 65px;

height: 66px;

display: block;

z-index: 2;

background: url(../images/new-product.png) no-repeat;

3. Save

Save your changes and ensure that your code is correct before doing so. Now, every time you add a new product and it goes on sale through your front end, it’ll have an icon and Boolean flag.
