Fetching an object using contentobject_id

Jason Filby	Friday 30 January 2004 7:22:33 am Hi all I need to fetch an object for which I have only the contentobject_id. In the database, I can see that the contectobject_id I have maps to ez_contentobject's id column. But how do I, in a template, fetch the object using this contentobject_id? This actually goes back to my attempts to fetch the object contained in an ezobjectrelation. Thanks Jason
James Packham	Friday 30 January 2004 9:32:39 am Oh! Sorry Jason, I didn't understand what you meant before! Try something like this: {let myobject=fetch('content','object',hash('object_id',239} 239 can be replaced by whatever your object id happens to be, or $object.id if it's the object you're looking at :) . Run "find design/standard/ \| xargs grep fetch \| grep object" In your ez publish root directory (assuming you're using Linux) to get some examples. kernel/content/function_definition.php tells you how it's defined and what parameters you can use :) Regards, James
Jason Filby	Wednesday 04 February 2004 10:19:37 am Hi James Thanks for your help. I was using this to get to a blog's relatd person object - and get the related user object. I used this approach instead of sections because I don't want hundreds of sections. Here's my code - for anyone that may want this in the future.

239 can be replaced by whatever your object id happens to be, or $object.id if it's the object you're looking at :) . Run

"find design/standard/ | xargs grep fetch | grep object"

In your ez publish root directory (assuming you're using Linux) to get some examples. kernel/content/function_definition.php tells you how it's defined and what parameters you can use :)

Hi James

Thanks for your help. I was using this to get to a blog's relatd person object - and get the related user object. I used this approach instead of sections because I don't want hundreds of sections. Here's my code - for anyone that may want this in the future.
