Opencart template $module code

Question

I am using Opencart 1.5.1 but have a theme made for 1.4.9.

The following template code won't work with 1.5.1:

<?php foreach ($modules as $module) { ?>
      <?php echo $module; ?>
<?php } ?>

Undefined variable: modules.
Invalid argument supplied for foreach().

What do I replace it with to work in 1.5.1? Thanks.

Answer 1

Is modules defined? Do you know if you have modules set to show where that code is in the template?

You can do this:

<?php 
    if($modules){
        foreach ($modules as $module) {
          echo $module;
        }
    }
?>

This way if $modules is not set to anything, it ignores the foreach loop.

Found a post about this question on opencart forums ..

Migrate theme from 1.4.9 to 1.5.1 (Undefined variable)s

Regarding the previous code, try the following :

<?php 
    if(isset($modules)){
        foreach ($modules as $module) {
          echo $module;
        }
    }
?>
