Need something cleaner..

[griimnak]

So, atm i have a very poor widget handler in ghabbo

class gWidget {
    public static function loadFooter() {
        return'
            <div id="container-footer">
            <p id="footer">
                '.gConfig::get('site->name').' Hotel is not affiliated with Sulake Co or Habbo Hotel .
                <br>
                <a href="'.gConfig::get('site->path').'/me" target="_self">Homepage</a> | <a href="'.gConfig::get('site->path').'/rules" target="_self">Rules</a> | <a href="#" target="_self">Privacy Policy</a>
            </p>
        </div>
             ';
    }
}

I kinda wanna just have a folder with widgets like widget.footer.html, but i'm not sure how i'd do that in php.
perhaps get_file_contents and return the data??

I use the database to read what plugins are being used and on what pages for instance on the home page it'll say "Plugin (1) gets loaded (second) on the (right) side and plugins are stored via a class in their owner widget folder and then the plugin developer can make usable asset data for the plugin in the folder. So to clean it up, perhaps plan out a new approach to it rather then the predefined one if you're wanting users to be able to change their experience or just autoload all plugins in a folder if you want to do it an easier way

Yeah I thought about that but idk, i feel like using a database for that is too... "normal".
I wanna try something different, either storing them in a file and loading them in. OR storing it in an array? a big, big array.

This what you looking for?

<?php

class gWidget
{
    const WIDGET_LOCATION = HABBO . "/Widgets/widget.";
    const WIDGET_EXTENSION = ".txt";

    public static function getWidget($Widget)
    {
        $Path = WIDGET_LOCATION . $Widget . WIDGET_EXTENSION;
        if (!file_exists($Path)) {
            echo "gCMS Templating Error ~ Could not find widget " . $Widget;
            exit;
        }
        $Contents = file_get_contents($Path);
        // Cache?
        echo $Contents;
    }
}

I'm interested in trying:

You must be registered for see links

<?php
class gWidget {
    public static function load($file) {
        if (isset($file)) {
            $docInstance = new DOMDocument();
            $docInstance->loadHTMLFile('pub/'.gConfig::get('site->tpl').'/widgets/$file');
        } else {
            gError::generic('file not set.');
        }

        return $docInstance->saveHTML();
    }
}

thoughts?

Or JSON data

= Higher memory usage and I'm pretty sure its slower.
You do you man, your CMS.
