Shoporama Templates
Below is information as to how you develop Shoporama themes
Navigation
Overview
In general, a Shoporama theme is a series of HTML files located in a folder on our ftp server. The template language in the individual files is Smarty, as mentioned below.
In the individual templates, there is access to a range of objects and methods. You can read more about them in our Template API.
Contact us at support@shoporama.dk if you have any questions.
Development environment
To make the development of Shoporama themes easier and faster, we have developed Hackorama - a local development environment that simulates Shoporama's production environment.
Hackorama makes it possible to develop and test your themes locally without having to deploy to production. This gives you faster feedback and a more efficient development process.
Functions
- Local API data retrieval with caching system
- Smarty 4 template engine with the same delimiters as Shoporama
- Wrapper classes that mimic Shoporama's "Safe*" classes
- Automatic image scaling and caching
- Simulated customer login and checkout flow
- Debug tools and logging
Get started
Follow these steps to get started with Hackorama:
# 1. Klon repository
git clone https://github.com/blinksbjerg/hackorama.git
cd hackorama
# 2. Konfigurer din API-nøgle i setup.php
# Rediger setup.php og indsæt din Shoporama API-nøgle
# 3. Start lokal PHP server
php -S localhost:8080
# 4. Åbn din browser
# Naviger til http://localhost:8080
Example: Testing product display
Here's an example of how you can test your product display in Hackorama:
# I din template fil (f.eks. product.html)
<div class="product-detail">
<h1><{$product->getName()|escape}></h1>
<div class="price">
<{$product->getPrice()|currency}>
</div>
<div class="description">
<{$product->getDescription()}>
</div>
</div>
# Test i Hackorama ved at navigere til:
# http://localhost:8080/product?id=123
Tip: Hackorama includes the Alaska2 theme as an example. You can use this as a starting point for your own theme or as a reference for best practices.
Note: Hackorama is not a 1:1 copy of Shoporama's production environment. It supports the basic features needed for local theme development, but not all advanced features are implemented. This is designed to give you a fast and efficient development environment for the most common use cases.
Read more about Hackorama and see the full documentation on GitHub.
Smarty
The engine of our templating system is based on Smarty.
We have version 2.6 installed for backwards compatibility reasons, but we no longer maintain it and we recommend that everyone uses version 4.x. The version is set under settings for the shop.
Please note that this documentation only applies to version 4.x.
The difference between standard Smarty and ours is that we use <{ and }> as delimiters. I.e. the syntax is:
<h1>Velkommen til <{$webshop->getName()|escape}></h1>
Tips
Check content
If you are unsure what a variable is or what a function returns, you can run it through var_dump. If you have an object, you will always be able to see what methods are available in our Template API.
You use var_dump in the following way:
<{$order|var_dump}>
Check objects
In some cases, it is relevant to make sure that if you use a variable as an object, it is also an object. Otherwise the template will not work. We set some global variables such as $product, and$webshop and others. For those variables it is not necessary. They can be checked in one of the following ways:
<{* Typisk tilstrækkelig *}>
<{if $profile}>
<{$profile->getName()}>
<{/if}>
<{* Lidt grundigere *}>
<{if is_object($profile)}>
<{$profile->getName()}>
<{/if}>
<{* Meget grundig *}>
<{if is_a($profile, "SafeProfile")}>
<{$profile->getName()}>
<{/if}>
Fejlfinding
If you want to see which variables are available on the page you are developing, you can activate Smarty's debug mode and view the variables in a new window. Insert the following code into your template:
<{debug}>

<{/if}>
File structure
You get ftp access to your shop and in the root of your directory, put your theme. The name of the folder is the name of the theme.
You are generally free to name the files in /{name}/templates as you wish. However, there are a few exceptions:
/{navn}/templates/global.html
The parent page that contains the structure of the entire shop. The content itself is inserted where this template shows <{$contents}>, which is a special variable that comes from the index.html below. A very simpleglobal.html could look like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title><{$webshop->getName()|escape}></title>
</head>
<body>
<nav>
<!-- Din navigation -->
</nav>
<div>
<{$contents}>
</div>
</body>
</html>
/{navn}/templates/index.html
This template is used to display the content of whatever you're looking at. That could be a product, a landing page, or the cart, and so on. A suggestion for how it could look is the following:
<{if $inc}>
<{include file=$inc}>
<{elseif $category}>
<{include file="category.html"}>
<{elseif $landing_page}>
<{include file="landing_page.html"}>
<{elseif $product}>
<{include file="product.html"}>
<{elseif $page}>
<{include file="page.html"}>
<{elseif $blog_post}>
<{include file="blog_post.html"}>
<{/if}>
/{navn}/templates/printed_invoice.html
Used from admin if you want to print a delivery note. The content of the order will always be in the $order variable.
/{navn}/templates/mails
If you want to send your customers an email some time after they have made a purchase.
$products
$order
Email that can be automatically sent if the customer has entered their email address but has not checked out.
$basket_url
$basket
Email that can be sent if an item is back in stock and the customer has signed up.
$product
Email to dropshipping supplier.
$products
$order
The invoice for the order.
$order
Email if the order is credited.
$order
Email sent when the order is shipped.
$order
Email sent when the order is ready for pickup in store.
$order
Email sent when the order is picked up from the store.
$order
If the customer has completed an order, but has not completed the payment.
$payment_url
$order
Email that can be sent to the customer if you want reviews.
$order
Email with link to reset password. To get the URL, use $customer->getTokenUrl().
$customer
Welcome email if the customer creates an account in the shop.
$customer
Email sent to the customer if the points expire.
$customer
$points_to_expire
$points_expire_date
Email sent to the customer when they create a return via the return center.
$order_return
Email sent to the customer when they create a return via the return center.
$order
General information about the structure of mail templates
By default, all mail templates are divided into two parts. One part for the subject and the other part for the content. The way the template is divided is by checking if the variable $subject is set. If it is, the template should return the subject. Otherwise, it should return the content. Example:
<{if $subject}>
Emnet på mailen
<{else}>
Indholdet af mailen
<{/if}>
With the exception of the two emails invoice.html andinvoice_dropshipping.html where the subject is controlled via adminadmin and not via the template.
Images, stylesheets, etc. in the theme
You are allowed to place your images, stylesheets, etc. wherever you want, but we recommend that you use a structure like
/{name}/images and /{name}/css. When referring to the files, use the variable
$theme_url which contains the URL to the theme. Note that it can change, so you cannot always
manually enter the URL into your theme. But the variable will always work. If you want to link to the image
/{name}/images/img.gif, you should therefore write
.
Extensions
Shoporama contains various data types such as products and categories. These data types include predefined fields such as title, description, and price. It is possible to expand the most common data types with custom fields. Extensions should be placed in the theme in the file /{name}/extensions/{datatype}.json, where the possible data types are product, landing_page, category, static_page, and blog_post.
The json-file must contain an array of groups. Each group contains a row of fields. The format is as this:
name
string
Group field name
description
string
Longer description
fields
array
Array of fields
Field properties:
title
The title of the field
description
Longer description if relevant.
id
ID to fetch value with
type
One of the following types:
options
Values whose type is either list or multi. The format is
"options": {
"foo": "Foo",
"bar": "Bar",
"baz": "Baz"
}
placeholder
Optional placeholder
default
Default value
repeater
Bruges til at oprette gentagne grupper af felter som kunden kan tilføje/fjerne dynamisk. Repeater items kan trækkes og slippes for at ændre rækkefølgen. Kræver et fields array der definerer sub-felterne.
Ekstra properties:
field_title- Navn på enkelte item (fx "Feature", "Slide", "Punkt")fields- Array af sub-felter (understøtter: text, richtext, longtext, number, image)
Below is an example of json in the file extensions/product.json:
[
{
"name": "Billeder",
"description": "Her kan du tilføje billeder",
"fields": [
{
"title": "Et enkelt billede",
"id": "my-image",
"type": "image"
},
{
"title": "En serie af billeder",
"id": "my-images",
"type": "images"
}
]
},
{
"name": "Indstillinger",
"description": "Herunder kan du indstille diverse",
"fields": [
{
"title": "my-setting",
"description": "Vælg flere ..",
"id": "tags",
"type": "multi",
"options": {
"foo": "Foo",
"bar": "Bar",
"baz": "Baz"
}
}
]
},
{
"name": "Features",
"description": "Produktfeatures med ikoner",
"fields": [
{
"title": "Features",
"id": "features",
"type": "repeater",
"field_title": "Feature",
"description": "Tilføj features for produktet",
"fields": [
{
"id": "title",
"type": "text",
"title": "Overskrift",
"placeholder": "Fx: Vandtæt"
},
{
"id": "description",
"type": "longtext",
"title": "Beskrivelse"
},
{
"id": "icon",
"type": "image",
"title": "Ikon"
}
]
}
]
}
]
Will produce this interface:
For data types that support extensions, the values must be retrieved via the getExtensionValue('ID') method, where ID is the ID from the json file. Depending on the data type of the field, the content can be returned as a text, array, or object:
Materiale: <{$product->getExtensionValue('materiale')}>
Or:
<{if $img = $product->getExtensionValue('img')}>
<{$img->getSrc(50, 50, 'fit')}>
<{/if}>
Or if you want to loop images:
<{foreach $product->getExtensionValue('my-images') as $image}>
<img src="<{$image->getSrc(50, 50, 'box')}>">
<{/foreach}>
For repeater felter kan man loope gennem items. Image felter i repeaters returneres som Image objekter:
<{foreach $product->getExtensionValue('features') as $feature}>
<div class="feature">
<{if $feature.icon}>
<img src="<{$feature.icon->getSrc(64, 64, 'box')}>" alt="">
<{/if}>
<h3><{$feature.title|escape}></h3>
<div><{$feature.description|escape|nl2br}></div>
</div>
<{/foreach}>
For date and datetime fields, the value can be used directly or formatted with Smarty's date_format:
<{* Date felt - vis kun dato *}>
Lanceringsdato: <{$product->getExtensionValue('publishdate')|date_format:'%d/%m/%Y'}>
<{* Datetime felt - vis dato og tid *}>
Publiceringsdato: <{$product->getExtensionValue('publishdatetime')|date_format:'%d/%m/%Y kl. %H:%M'}>
<{* Tjek om produktet skal vises baseret på dato *}>
<{if $launch_date = $product->getExtensionValue('publishdate')}>
<{if $launch_date|strtotime <= $smarty.now}>
<!-- Produktet er lanceret -->
<{/if}>
<{/if}>
<{* Sammenlign datoer *}>
<{if $product->getExtensionValue('publishdatetime')|strtotime > $smarty.now}>
Kommer snart: <{$product->getExtensionValue('publishdatetime')|date_format:'%d. %B %Y'}>
<{/if}>

Template functions
The following are the Shoporama-specific features that can be used in templates:
Template language support
It is possible to build language support into your templates. Not classic language support, where you can select the text in multiple languages, but language support where it is possible to change the text in admin. It works by wrapping the text in a <{t}> block. After the template has been rendered in the browser, the text can then be edited in admin. Example:
<{t}>Din kurv<{/t}>
Note that if you change the text in your template files, the new text will appear in admin as a new text. There are no IDs or names other than the content, which makes the text unique.
You can set the section attribute on the block to divide your texts into more manageable parts. As well as hint if you want to give a hint in admin when the text is edited:
<{t section="basket" hint="Bruger i overskriften"}>Din kurv<{/t}>
If you have variable content that you want to send with without the value being in admin, you can use the syntax below:
<{t amount=$total_amount price=$total_price|number_format:2:",":"." hint="Til kurven"}>
Du har {amount} ting til {price} kroner i kurven.
<{/t}>
If it fits better in your structure, you can also use t as a modifier on your variables/functions:
<{$title = "Min titel her"}>
<{$title|t}>
The above will display the following in admin:
Arguments
Section for partitioning in admin
Hint used in admin as help text
Template caching
If a template contains a lot of heavy calls that don't need to be updated live - such as variants on products, menus, or category overviews, Shoporama includes a caching function that can make the shop a lot faster. The functions used are cache and get_cache respectively, which first mark the part to be cached and later retrieve the cached data. Example:
<{get_cache name="my_cache" ttl=3600 assign="c"}>
<{if $c}>
Fra cache: <{$c}>
<{else}>
Live:
<{cache name="my_cache"}>
<{$smarty.now}>
<{/cache}>
<{/if}>
The cache function wraps the content and assigns it the name specified in name. When the content is to be extracted, get_cache is used, which takes the arguments name, as used earlier, and ttl, which specifies in seconds how old the content can be. If the argument is omitted, the default is one hour.
Arguments
Used to specify the name of the cached item. It is possible to use dynamic names from variables.
Cache content retrieval
Function that returns the cached content from the cache function.
Arguments
The name of the cached item used in cache.
Time To Live. Number of seconds the cache is allowed to remain valid for.
The name of the variable to which the content should be assigned.
Theme settings
It is possible to add some general settings to themes by adding a
theme_settings.json in the root of the theme, and it will result in something similar to the following:
The structure is as follows:
info
The name of the theme
string
features
Array of features the theme contains. Only used for viewing in admin. Only useful if the theme is general and multiple users can select it. For example ["Feature A", "Feature B", "Feature C"]

}
Page Builder
The Page Builder is a tool for building content through sections based on JSON files. These sections can be placed on different pages in the webshop. The pages in which they can be placed are defined in the file /{name}/components/sections.json. The content of each section is defined in their own respective file, which is placed in /{name}/components/sections/{section}.json.
If you have done the above, the Design link at the top of the admin will automatically lead to the Page Builder.
The structure in the construction of sections is as follows:
/{navn}/components/sections.json
File: sections.json
Contains a list of page types and an array of which sections are allowed. In addition to page types, you can also use custom tags.
{
"Sidetype": ["sektionA", "sektionB"]
}
The following types of pages exist:
product
Product pages
category
Categories
landing_page
Dynamic categories
static_page
Pages
blog_post
Blog post
basket
The basket
address
Address page
shipping
Shipping page
approve
Approval page
thanks
The thank you page, which the customer typically sees after the order has been completed.
search
Search result page
also
The upsell page, which can be used if you show an upsell page after the customer has added products to the cart
order
Order page, which displays the contents of the order via a link
#tags
Optional tags you create yourself
An example of a sections.json where the user can add the sectionsslider, photos, and quiz to landing pages, but only slider to product pages, and on #footer an about section can be added would look like this:
{
"landing_page": ["slider", "photos", "quiz"],
"product": ["slider"],
"#footer": ["about"]
}
/{navn}/components/tags.json
File: tags.json
#footer that you drag out and display at the bottom of the shop, or an #xmas setup that you only use in December. The format for tags.json is:
{
"tag1": "Beskrivelse ...",
"tag2": "Beskrivelse ...",
"tag3": "Beskrivelse ..."
}
The individual tags automatically appear in the admin when the user creates a new configuration.
To extract the content of tags in the theme, thegetBlocks() function is used as follows:
<{if $blocks = $webshop->getBlocks("#foo")}>
<{foreach $blocks as $block=>$elements}>
[...]
<{/foreach}>
<{/if}>
/{navn}/components/sections
Library: sections
slider, the content should be located in/{name}/components/sections/slider.json. The structure of the files is as follows title
Field: title
The name displayed in admin
description
Field: description
Description shown in admin
fields
Field: fields
An array of fields
Properties for array elements:
.id
The ID of the field. Used when the content is looped through in the theme.
string.type
Content type. Valid types are:list,text,integer,image,images,bool,richtext,longtext,repeater,product,category, andlanding_page
.options
Only used for fields of type list and it contains a series of options such as
[...]
"options": {
"hat": "Hat",
"glasses": "Briller",
"beard": "Skæg"
},
[...]
.title
The title of the field
string.description
Description of the field
string.max
Maximum number of fields that can be added
int.required
If the field is required
bool.placeholder
Placeholder for admin
string.default
Optional default value for the field
string.fields
Only used if the type is repeater and can contain the same fields as sections. A simplified example of a slider repeater could be:
[...]
"type": "repeater",
"fields": [
{
"id": "headline",
"type": "text",
"title": "Overskrift"
},
{
"id": "img",
"type": "image",
"title": "Billedet"
}
]
[...]
.field_title
Only used if the type is repeater and contains the name of the individual elements in the repeater
Views
There are different strategies for extracting data. As a starting point, there will be a $page_blocks on the pages that match a setup. It can be looped through, or the content can be extracted using $webshop->getBlocks('#foo'). Alternatively, the content can be accessed through the name of the section.
As a starting point, we would recommend that you place the display of each section in separate files, such as /{name}/templates/sections/{section}.html. Then it is easy to loop through $page_blocks and include the correct display as follows:
<{if $page_blocks}>
<{foreach $page_blocks as $section}>
<{$type = $section._type}>
<{if $webshop->templateExists("sections/$type.html")}>
<{include file="sections/$type.html"}>
<{/if}>
<{/foreach}>
<{/if}>
Note that the row type is in the variable _type
Below section calls images – hence content is in /{navn}/components/sections/images.json.
{
"title": "Overskrift og billeder",
"fields": [
{
"id": "headline",
"type": "text",
"title": "Overskrift"
},
{
"id": "images",
"type": "images",
"title": "Billeder"
}
]
}
It will produce the following interface in admin
To extract content through the above method may /{navn}/templates/sections/images.html contain the following:
<h1><{$section.headline|escape}></h1>
<{foreach $section.images as $image}>
<img src="<{$image->getSrc(150, 150, 'box')}>">
<{/foreach}>
Regarding data type, it is important to be aware of what each field contains. It can be either a string, array, or object. Therefore, one should do something similar:
[...]
<{foreach $section as $name=>$val}>
<{if is_array($val)}>
Repeater or array of images
<{elseif is_object($val)}>
An image
<{else}>
Text, number or such
<{/if}>
<{/foreach}>
[...]
If you use the types product, category, or landing_page, the selected ID will be returned in the theme, and you have to extract the object yourself using the methods $webshop->getProductById(id), $webshop->getCategory(id), or $webshop->getLandingPage(id). For example:
[...]
<{if $product = $webshop->getProductById($section.product_id)}>
<{$product->getName()|escape}>
<{/if}>
[...]
Please note that it is always possible to use var_dump to examine what the variable contains. That way you can loop through it correctly.
Views
Based on the previously mentioned structure, the individual views are reviewed below. To understand the individual objects and which methods are available, we recommend looking in our. Template API.
Download our Alaska theme to see examples of the different views.
Products
The display of products can be located in product.html, but it is optional. It is always index.html that
executes the individual displays. However, we recommend using this structure. To know if a product view is being executed, it checks
if $product is present.
Add to cart
Products are added to the cart by making a POST call to any page - typically just the page already being displayed, with the product_id, attributes[{attribute_id}]={attribute_value_id}, and amount arguments. The attribute should only be added if the products have variants.
A simple example of how to add products to basket may be:
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="product_id" value="<{$product->getProductId()}>"/>
<input type="number" name="amount" value="1" min="1"/>
<input type="submit" value="Læg i kurv">
</form>
With variants
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="product_id" value="<{$product->getProductId()}>"/>
<{foreach $product->getProfile()->getAttributeList() as $attribute}>
<{if $attribute->getIsVariant() && $attribute->getDataType() == "valuelist"}>
<select name="attributes[<{$attribute->getAttributeId()}>]">
<{foreach $attribute->getValues() as $value}>
<option value="<{$value->getAttributeValueId()}>">
<{$attribute->getName()|escape}>: <{$value->getVal()|escape}>
</option>
<{/foreach}>
</select>
<{/if}>
<{/foreach}>
<input type="number" name="amount" value="1" min="1"/>
<input type="submit" value="Læg i kurv">
</form>
The above can of course be made more complicated if you wish to display stock availability, bundled packages, etc.
Dynamic categories
Landing pages contain a $landingpage and $products which is an array of
products to be displayed on the page.
If a pager is needed it will be included this way
<{if $pager}>
<{$pager->render()}>
<{/if}>
Categories
Categories contain a $category and $products which is an array of
products to be displayed on the page.
If a pager is needed it will be included this way
<{if $pager}>
<{$pager->render()}>
<{/if}>
Pages
Static pages will contain a $page.
Blog
The blog can be divided into two pages: blog.html and blog_post.html, where the first one can retrieve a list of blog posts through:
<{$blog_posts = $webshop->getBlogPosts()}>
Viewing the individual blog posts is through the variable $blog_post
If the list of blogposts is from a category there will be a $category available at the category.
Product reviews
In the product_review.html file, there is access to $order, which represents the order. You can only review products that you have purchased. Based on the order, you can retrieve the products using $order->getOrderProducts(). To save the product reviews, you need to make a POST call to the same page with the following content:
<{if $order}>
<{if $get.voted}>
Tak!
<{else}>
<form action="" method="post">
<{foreach $order->getOrderProducts() as $product}>
<{$product->getName()|escape}>
Stjerner:
<input type="number" min="1" max="5" name="rating[<{$product->getProductId()}>]">
Anmeldelse
<textarea name="description[<{$product->getProductId()}>]"></textarea>
<{/foreach}>
<input type="submit" value="Skriv anmeldelse"/>
</form>
<{/if}>
<{/if}>
$get.voted is set to true when the customer has written a review.
To link to the review page from your order use $order->getReviewUrl().
Search
The search function works by making a GET request to /search where the argument
?search= should be your search keyword. E.g.:
<form action="/search">
<input type="text" name="search" value="<{$get.search|escape}>"/>
<input type="submit" value="Søg"/>
</form>
The search is done in both products, categories, blog posts, and landing pages. To display the result, you need to look at the four variables
$products, $categories, $blog_posts, $pages, and $landing_pages.
If searching in static pages is to be enabled, it must be activated in the admin.
Wishlist
If your customers can log in to your shop, you can provide them with the option to create wishlists. They can create as many wishlists as they want, and a wishlist has a name, a description, and a number of products. The wishlist itself has a public address so your customers can share a link.
The wishlist uses the following templates:
wishlist.html
/wishlist
The page with the public wish list.
$wishlist that contains the wish list. See methods here.
user-wishlists.html
/user-wishlists
The page with the user's wishlists. Requires login.
$customer->getWishlists() to extract wishlists.
user-wishlist.html
/user-wishlist
The page used to edit the wishlist and products.
$wishlist that contains the wish list. See methods here.
To create a wishlist, a POST request with the field name and optionally
description needs to be sent from user-wishlists.html. For example,
<form action="" method="post">
Navn
<input type="text" name="name">
Beskrivelse
<textarea name="description"></textarea>
<input type="submit" value="Opret">
</form>
Note that you can advantageously use the methods $wishlist->getRemoteUrl() and $wishlist->getEditUrl() to create links for displaying and editing the wishlists.
In the file user-wishlist.html, where the wishlist is edited, the name and description should be sent as name, description, and status which can be either active or closed.
The products themselves, along with their quantity and optional comment, should be sent as an array in the following format:
wishlist_product[{id}][name] = 'navn'
wishlist_product[{id}][comments] = 'kommentar'
wishlist_product[{id}][remove] = '1' // kun hvis produktet skal fjernes
Example code:
<{foreach $wishlist->getWishlistProducts() as $wp}>
<{* Fordi der er forskel på produkter og ønskelisteprodukter }*>
<{$product = $wp->getProduct()}>
<input type="checkbox" name="wishlist_product[<{$wp->getWishlistProductId()}>][remove]" value="1">
<a href="<{$product->getUrl()|escape}>"><{$product->getName()|escape}></a>
<{if $variant = $wp->getVariantValue()}>
<{$wp->getVariantName()|escape}>: <{$variant|escape}>
<{/if}>
<input type="number" name="wishlist_product[<{$wp->getWishlistProductId()}>][amount]" value="<{$wp->getAmount()}>">
<textarea name="wishlist_product[<{$wp->getWishlistProductId()}>][comments]"><{$wp->getComments()|escape}></textarea>
<{/foreach}>
If a variable edit is sent, the page will return to the same editing page again. Otherwise, it will be redirected to the overview of wish lists. To delete the wish list, a variable named remove must be sent. Example:
<input type="submit" name="remove" value="Slet" onclick="return confirm('Er du sikker?');">
To add products to a wishlist from the shop, a POST request can be made from any page with the fields wishlist_id, product_id, and an optional attribute_value_id if the product has variants.
Example:
<{if $product && $customer}>
<{if $wishlists = $customer->getWishlists()}>
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="product_id" value="<{$product->getProductId()}>"/>
<label>Vælg ønskeliste:</label>
<select name="wishlist_id">
<{foreach $wishlists as $wishlist}>
<option value="<{$wishlist->getWishlistId()}>">
<{$wishlist->getName()|escape}>
</option>
<{/foreach}>
</select>
<{if $variant = $product->getVariant()}>
<label>Vælg variant:</label>
<select name="attribute_value_id">
<{foreach $variant->getValues() as $value}>
<option value="<{$value->getAttributeValueId()}>">
<{$variant->getName()|escape}>: <{$value->getVal()|escape}>
</option>
<{/foreach}>
</select>
<{/if}>
<input type="submit" value="Tilføj til ønskeliste">
</form>
<{/if}>
<{/if}>
Return center
The returns center allows your customers to create returns themselves. It needs to be activated in the shop settings. Once a customer has created a return, it needs to be approved in the admin, and a credit note will be issued.
The return center uses the following templates:
return.html
Template: return.html
/return
The page where the return is created
Relevant variables:
$order containing the order the customer wants to return. See methods here.
order-return.html
Template: order-return.html
/order-return
The page where the return is subsequently displayed
Relevant variables:
$order_return with the return. See methods here.
return_received.html
Template: return_received.html
Email sent to the customer when they create a return
Relevant variables:
$order_return with the return. See methods here.
There are two ways for your customer to access the return page. One is by entering the order number and email
address associated with their order. The other is by following a direct link. The direct link can be retrieved from
the order using the $order->getReturnUrl() function. For example,
<{if $webshop->useReturnCenter() && !$order->getIsCreditNote()}>
<a href="<{$order->getReturnUrl()|escape}>">Retuner varer</a>
<{/if}>
As seen in the example, it is a good idea to check that the order is not a credit note and if the webshop has activated the return center. The example can be used anywhere there is an $order, such as the customer's order overview or in emails.
If you do not use login or in any other way want the customer to be able to search for their order, you need to implement a search with order number and email address on return.html. The fields webshop_order_id and email should be POSTed to /return. If the order is found, the customer will be redirected to the return process. If not, $get.not_found will be set, and you can display an error message in the theme. A minimal form can look like the following:
<{if $get.not_found}>
<p>Der blev ikke fundet nogen ordre.</p>
<{/if}>
<h1>Returcenter</h1>
<form method="post" action="">
<input type="number" name="webshop_order_id" placeholder="Ordrenummer">
<input type="email" name="email" placeholder="E-mail-adresse">
<input type="submit" value="Søg">
</form>
Creation of return
In the file return.html, a list of order lines must be extracted, and the customer can choose which products to return and why. Unlike regular order views, the return process should include one line per order line.
<form action="" method="post">
<{$line = 0}>
<!-- Looper ordrelinjerne igennem -->
<{foreach $order->getOrderProducts() as $product}>
<!-- getReturned() returnerer antallet der tidligere er returneret -->
<{$returned = $product->getReturned()}>
<!-- Løkke for hver antal -->
<{section name="i" loop=$product->getAmount()}>
<{$line = $line+1}>
<!-- Viser ikke flere end det er muligt at returnere -->
<{if $line - $returned > 0}>
<{$product->getName()|escape}>
<{if $attributes = $product->getAttributes()}>
<{foreach $attributes as $attribute}>
<{$attribute.name}>: <{$attribute.val}>
<{/foreach}>
<{/if}>
<!-- Check hvilken pris der skal vises -->
<{if $webshop->getUseCalculatedUnitPrice()}>
<{$webshop->getCurrency()}> <{$product->getCalculatedUnitPrice()|number_format:2:",":"."}>
<{else}>
<{$webshop->getCurrency()}> <{$product->getUnitPrice()|number_format:2:",":"."}>
<{/if}>
<!-- Checkbox og en grund -->
<input type="checkbox" name="return[<{$line}>]" value="<{$product->getOrderProductId()}>">Vælg
<input type="text" name="reason[<{$line}>]" placeholder="Evt. årsag til returnering"/>
<{/if}>
<{/section}>
<{/foreach}>
</form>
It is possible in admin to specify a fixed delivery method and price. If this is done, the delivery method is retrieved via
$webshop->getReturnShipping($country_id), and if the price is fixed, it is retrieved via
$webshop->getReturnShippingPrice($country_id). For example:
<{if $return_shipping = $webshop->getReturnShipping($order->getDelCountryId())}>
Varer skal returneres via <{$return_shipping->getName()|escape}>.
<{if $price = $webshop->getReturnShippingPrice($order->getDelCountryId())}>
Prisen er <{$price|number_format:2:",":"."}>
<{else}>
Prisen er <{$return_shipping->getCost()|number_format:2:",":"."}>
<{/if}>
<{else}>
<!-- Vis en liste over shoppens almindelige leveringsmetoder her -->
<{/if}>
The selected delivery method, if optional, should be sent as shipping_id.
Display of return
Once the return is created, it will appear in order-return.html, which contains an $order_returnwith the relevant methods.
/also
also.html is our page for upselling. As a starting point, there is access to $product,
and based on that, suggestions can be made to the customer. It may be relevant to use $product->getRelatedProducts(),
$product->getAlsoBought(), or $webshop->getPopularProducts().
404
Only used to show 404 pages
410
Only used to show 410 pages
Captcha
An automatic captcha is inserted when you try to sign up for a newsletter or write comments. This is to prevent spam. It is possible to design the page itself in captcha.html, and it must contain at least:
<form action="" method="post">
<{$form}>
<{if $error}>Fejl i koden<{/if}>
<img src="<{$imgstr}>">
Skriv indholdet at ovenstående felt:
<input type="text" name="c">
<input type="submit" value="OK">
</form>
Login
It is possible to allow customers to log in to the shop. If the person is logged in, there will be a $customer that contains information about the user. All pages that edit, log in, etc. should submit via POST to the same page.
/user-edit.html

Custom fields for customers
In admin it is possible to define custom fields for users. These fields are edited this way:
<{foreach $webshop->getCustomerFields() as $field}>
<{if $field->getType() == "list"}>
<{$field->getName()|escape}>
<select name="field[<{$field->getCustomerFieldId()}>]">
<{foreach $field->getValues() as $value}>
<option <{if $field->getVal() == $value}>selected="selected"<{/if}> value="<{$value|escape}>">
<{$value|escape}>
</option>
<{/foreach}>
</select>
<{elseif $field->getType() == "string"}>
<{$field->getName()|escape}>
<input type="text" name="field[<{$field->getCustomerFieldId()}>]" value="<{$field->getVal()|escape}>">
<{/if}>
<{/foreach}>
Loyalty programme
The loyalty program allows your customers to earn and use points when they place orders. The setup is managed under Customers > Loyalty Program.
You can use the following methods to check if the shop has enabled the loyalty program and if the customer is logged in and has earned points they can use:
<{if $webshop->hasLoyaltyProgram() && $customer && $customer->getActivePoints()}>
[Visning af point m.m.]
<{/if}>
To display the number of points the customer has earned, as well as how many they can use on the current order, you can use the following code example:
Du har optjent <{$customer->getActivePoints()|number_format:0:",":"."}> point.
<{if $points = $customer->getPointsAvailable()}>
Du kan bruge <{$points|number_format:0:",":"."}> point på denne ordre.
<{else}>
Du har ingen optjente point du kan bruge på denne ordre.
<{/if}>
The field you POST to the cart, indicating how many points the customer wants to use, should be named use_points, and can appear as follows:
<input type="number" name="use_points" value="<{$use_points}>" min="0" max="<{$customer->getPointsAvailable()}>"/>
You can use $earns to see how much the customer earns on the order:
Du optjener <{$earns|number_format:0:",":"."}> point på denne ordre.
You can use the example below to describe your loyalty program:
Du optjener <{$webshop->getLoyaltyProgramBasePoints()|number_format:0:",":"."}> point hver
gang du køber for 1 <{$webshop->getCurrency()}>. Når du betaler med point svarer
<{$webshop->getLoyaltyProgramBaseCost()|number_format:0:",":"."}> point til 1 <{$webshop->getCurrency()}>.
If you want to create a points overview page, you can use user-points.html, where you can loop through $my_pointsand present the content. Take a look at the SafePoint class to see what methods are available.
Tip: You can style your order overview by using the following CSS classes: points_used, points_earned, and has_profile.
Check-out
The check-out flow is simply a series of HTML pages, each containing a form that POSTs some data to itself. If the next field is set, Shoporama will proceed to the next page in the flow. Typically, the "Next" button will have name="next". It is always possible to link to previous pages in the flow. When the customer enters their information, it is stored in two arrays: $session_order and $session_del. For example, $session_order.name.
basket.html
File name: basket.html
Shows basket content. Simpel example of how to use $basket
<{foreach $basket as $line}>
<{$line.amount}> x <{$line.product->getName()}>
<{foreach $line.attributes as $a}>
<{$a.name|escape}>: <{$a.value|escape}>
<{/foreach}>
<{/foreach}>
To change the quantity, it should be POST'ed in the following way.
[...]
<input name="amount[<{$line.id}>]" value="<{$line.amount}>" />
[...]
To add a discount code, you need to POST a voucher with the discount code. If the discount code is invalid, $get.wrong_voucher will be present in the template.
The delivery country can be changed by POSTing a del_country_id with the ID of the delivery country.

Ajax
Shoporama has two built-in ajax calls. One can extract products in various ways (filtering), and the other is a general and simple search that searches in products, categories, and landing pages.
Filtering
The filtering is located in the file /ajax which is located at the root of all shops.
atags
A list of tags on the attribute values, attribute values are settings on the attributes on the products' profiles. the values on atags must be separated by commas, but allow groupings separated by pipe as a logical OR.
ajax?atags=female,black|white
product_ids
List of product IDs separated by pipe.
ajax?product_ids=1|2|3|4
price_range
Returns products that are within a price range. The amounts should be separated by a pipe.
ajax?price_range=100|200
categories
A pipe-separated list of categories the products should be in. If the argument exclude=1 is set, a list of products that do not have the categories is returned.
ajax?categories=5|9|2
ajax?categories=5|9|2&exclude=1
sort
Sort order. The values popular, weight, name, price, created can be set. Whether the sort order should be ascending or descending is specified by setting sort_order to either asc (ascending) or desc (descending ).
ajax?sort=price&sort_order=desc
attribute_values
A list of IDs of the attribute values that the products should have. The list is separated by pipe. If the argument exclude=1 is set, a list of products that do not match is returned.
ajax?attribute_values=9|8|12
suppliers
Pipe-separated list of supplier IDs.
ajax?suppliers=8|2
landing_pages
Girl-separated list of IDs for landing pages the products should appear on.
ajax?landing_pages=5|24
extension.{id}
If the theme uses extended fields, products can be extracted based on them. Absolute searches are made, so the fields that make the most sense to use are bool, multi, number, and list. Pipe-separated values can be used if the products need to match just one of the values.
ajax?extension.foo=1&extension.tags=foo|bar
attribute_tags_in_stock
List of tags for attribute values that should be in stock. The list can be piped separated.
ajax?attribute_tags_in_stock=foo|bar
attribute_tags
List of tags to be placed on the products. The list can be pipe-separated.
ajax?attribute_tags=foo|bar
attribute_tag
Same as attribute_tags however just an single tag
ajax?attribute_tag=foo
force_categories
A pipe-separated list of categori IDs that must be set on all products.
ajax?force_categories=5|9|2
limit
Maximum amount of products to be returned
ajax?limit=10
offset
Starting position in relation to where in the list of products you wish to retrieve from.
ajax?offset=100&limit=10
meta
Pipe-separated list of extra fields you wish to see on the products in the result. If you set meta=_all, all will be returned.
ajax?meta=foo|bar
ajax?meta=_all
only_in_stock_variants
Sættes til 1 eller 0 afhængig af om hvert produkt i resultatet kun skal medtage varianter der er på lager. Default er 0.
ajax?only_in_stock_variants=1
include_meta
Sættes til 1 eller 0 afhængig af om man önske et ekstra meta-felt i resultatet der indeholder beskrivelser af produkterne i resultatet. Det er oplysninger om hvilke attributter, kategorier, og brands der findes. Default er 0.
ajax?include_meta=1
include_pagination
Sættes til 1 eller 0 afhængig af om man önske et ekstra pagination-felt i resultatet der indeholder paging oplysninger. Felterne i array'et er offset, limit, count, total. Default indstilling er 0.
ajax?include_pagination=1
pretty
Sættes til 1 eller 0 afhängig af om json-svaret skal formateres pænt eller ej.
ajax?pretty=1
The response from /ajax is an array in the following format:
[

For speed reasons, we cache the response from the ajax file, but in a test environment, you can add rebuild=1 as an argument to rebuild the page. We recommend not doing this in a production environment as it can significantly slow down the page.
Search
The page /ajax_search contains a general search for products, categories, and landing pages. It can, for example, be used for autocomplete in your search field. It takes the following arguments:
term
Keyword
ajax_search?term=ostemad
limit
Maximum results
ajax_search?term=ostemad&limit=25
include
En kommasepareret liste af datatyper man ønsker at søge i. Værdierne kan være products, categories, blog_posts, pages, og landing_pages.
