Test for component - tibbz - 2018-05-24
Is there a way for testing if a component if being used?
I set a global var in functions.php to False and changed it in a component to True so some css and js is loaded. The template already seems to be compiled.

That should work, the component is only evaled when something uses it

@tibbz
How do you insert the component? With
get_component('name'); in your template, or some other way?

I'm using the DynPages plugin http://get-simple.info/extend/plugin/dynpages/81/
{% component param %} using it in the page itself.

Then, the component is executed in
<?php get_page_content(); ?>, so if do your check before that, it will not work.A possible way to do what you need would be a conditional that checks if the string "{% componentname " is present in global variable $content

Yes this works very well thank you. Set a flag if you need to check after <?php get_page_content(); ?> as the component code will have been evaluated. I say this because css and js are loaded at different times in the page.
