How to find parent page name on search result

Permalink
Hello Concrete5 Masters,

I need a little help. I am creating a custom template on search block. What I want is show parent page name of the search result.

Looking at the search block view file, there is this:

<?php  foreach($results as $r) { 
//Search result page names and urls etc here; $r->getPath(), $r->getName() etc
}


Is there a way where I could do something like:

if($r->parentPageName()=="parent_page_name") {
// Do some stuff here
}


Any hint/direction will be highly appreciated.

First, get the result's ID:
$childId= $cobj->getCollectionID();


THEN work with its parent.
$parentId=Page::getByID($childId->getCollectionParentID()); //notice how I use $childId
$parentName = $parentId->getCollectionName();
echo $parentName; //just to see if it's correct


Not tested but should work.
Put both code snippets inside your foreach cycle. Then you can do if($parentName == "blabla") ...

That's the whole c5 logic and most stuff is done this way.

Hi MoonGrab!
I tryed for hours to insert/edit your code in the view.php but it doesn't work.
Why is it possible to display the parent page "ID" but not it's name???

Dear friend,
finally I found a way to display the parents page name in my search results.
Put this anywhere you want:

<?php
$parent = page::getByID($page->getCollectionParentID());
print $parent->getCollectionName();
?>
