Template include inside related tags

    Is there a way to include a template inside a <perch:repeater> to output content?


    I' trying to do so but it is not working with the following code

    Code
    1. <perch:related id="tech-specs" collection="Documentos">
    2. <perch:template path="content/document.html">
    3. </perch:related>


    If I write directly the content from the template instead of including it with <perch:template> it does work, but that forces me to duplicate it almost entirely

    Code
    1. <perch:related id="tech-specs" collection="Documentos">
    2. <h1><perch:content id="document_name" type="text"></h1>
    3. </perch:related>

    Hi Juan,


    • Are you using the related field inside a content region or a collection item?
    • If you turn on debug mode, the debug message should indicate whether Perch is able to find the template content/document.html
    • Try avoiding hyphens in IDs. So instead of tech-specs, use tech_specs
    Quote from Documentation: the ID attribute


    The id template attribute is a unique identifier for the content field. It is a required attribute. Use letters, numbers and underscores only for an id.

    Hi Hussein,


    Thank you for the underscore tip, already changed it but it still doesn't work.

    The related field is inside a collection. In the debug output everything seems fine, no templates missing.


    Below is the actual code I'm using (before I simplified it a bit).


    I use an HTML free template for the collection "Modelos"

    Code: model.html
    1. <perch:content id="model_name" type="text" label="Nombre del modelo" title>
    3. <!--* More fields below *-->


    Then I use another template to output the content from that collection

    Code: model_support.php
    1. perch_collection('Modelos', [
    2. 'template' => '_v__model_'.$lang.'.html',
    3. 'filter' => 'slug',
    4. 'value' => perch_get('s'),
    5. ]);
    Code: _v__model_es.html
    1. <perch:related id="tech_specs" collection="Documentos">
    2. <perch:template path="content/_v__document_es.html">
    3. </perch:related>


    "Documentos" collection behaves in the same way, using document.html to create the collection items and other templates for display

    Code: document.html
    1. <!--* More fields above *-->
    3. <perch:related id="models" label="Modelos relacionados" collection="Modelos" required></perch:related>
    5. <!--* More fields below *-->
    Code: _v__document_es.html
    1. <perch:related id="models" collection="Modelos">
    2. <p>
    3. <perch:content id="model_name" type="text"> <span><perch:content id="model_number" type="text"></span>
    4. </p>
    5. </perch:related>

    Does the template model.html have a perch:related field to relate documents to models?

    HTML
    1. <perch:content id="model_name" type="text" label="Nombre del modelo" title>
    2. <perch:related id="tech_specs" collection="Documentos"></perch:related>



    It looks like you are relating models to documents in document.html, which is absolutely fine, but it means you need to use perch_collection() to get or output these documents:


    PHP
    1. perch_collection('Documentos', [
    2. 'template' => '_v__document_es.html',
    3. 'filter' => 'model.slug',
    4. 'value' => perch_get('s'),
    5. ]);

    Does the template model.html have a perch:related field to relate documents to models?

    Yes, it has. That's how I relate documents to models.


    I was trying to do it all with one template but I realised it wasn't possible, so now I'm using this in my page template.


    However, I still have one issue. I am relating as well documents to documents, using blocks

    HTML: document.html
    1. <perch:blocks label="Secciones">
    2. <perch:template path="content/_b__text.html">
    3. <perch:template path="content/_b__features.html">
    4. <perch:template path="content/_b__figure.html">
    5. <perch:template path="content/_b__symbols.html">
    6. <perch:template path="content/_b__warning.html">
    7. <perch:template path="content/_b__labels.html">
    8. <perch:template path="content/_b__document.html">
    9. </perch:blocks>
    HTML: _b__document.html
    1. <perch:block type="document" label="Documento">
    2. <perch:related id="inserted_doc" collection="Documentos" label="Documento" max="1">
    3. </perch:related>
    4. </perch:block>

    I haven't found a way to display all the content created using with the blocks for the embedded document. Is it possible? Or should the <perch:related collection="Documentos"></perch:related> be outside the blocks?
