Embed a Joomla component into a PageBilder Page

Asked by Immo 4 years ago Last activity 3 years ago

Hello everyone,

I'm just on the hose ;-)
Is it possible to add a component to a PageBuilder page?
I need to embed the JEvents component with other PageBuilder elements on a page and I don't understand it right now. Is that even possible ?

Hi Immo,

in theory, yes, but I cannot give you any warranty. Becuase Joomla by default do not allows to use two components views on this same page.

You need:

  1. https://regularlabs.com/componentsanywhere
  2. Custom Module (joomla core one) to use (1) -- but inside module "Options" tab > Prepare Content: Yes.
  3. Module addon from SPPB to use module (2)

Easier would be to use SPPB module - published in module position under or below JEvents component view. If Helix Ultimate template you can use content-top or content-bottom position.

Hi Paul,

Many thanks for the quick response - at the linked page is written "Components Anywhere is not compatible with Joomla 4 (yet)." - so I cant use that because I work with Joomla 4 ;-)

The thing about the 2 components is that SPPB itself is a component, right?
That means I would have to build a component into a component.

Each of my pages has a headline animated from SPPB and below that is my content. Now I would like that this looks the same on JEvents as it does on all other sites. I'm using the JEvents month view, which is a component. But I can't put the animated headline above it. The "Custom Module" doesn't get me very far either, since I can't load the animated heading into it.

Yes, SPPB is component.

Maybe you have to develop JEvents module that would have view from months view.

Anyway, My help ends here.

Ok THX Paul!

Haven't several people had this problem before?

Hmm, let's see how I will solve the problem...

Paul Frankowski Senior Staff

In Joomla 3.x is not a big problem, there is extension for this, as you noticed.

You can hire freelancer (from your city/country) who can develop you a extra module.
There is always a two ways to solve any challange/problem.

Immo Asked this

I even know someone there ;-)

Or I wait until the expansion for J4 is released.

THX for helping me again Paul

Hello, maybe I had the same question/problem...
I tryed the folowing code in a Joomla Module and put this by the add-on in a SPPB-page.
But: there is no result, only the text of the code appear....
The code:
{component "index.php?option=com_fabrik&view=list&listid=33"}
And I did all what's written in the documentation.
Help is needed.

Hi Eric,

as 1st step publish Custom module in template module (bottom1 etc.) without using SPPB, just to test if you can see content nfrom component view!

Q:
Fabrik do not have module? I cannot believe that, so famus extension.

Eric Poller

Hi Paul
The first step I did, the not wanted result is only the text of the code..
And yes, Fabrik have a module, perhaps is that the way I have to do....
I had in mind that I had to make a Joomla Custom Module. I 'll change my mind and make a Fabrik module and try to use this.
I let you know.
