Using plugin in PHPfox

Question

Can anyone tell me why this call {plugin call='video.template_block_entry_1'} is made in phpfox\module\video\template\default\block\entry.html.php file?

Answer 1

That is a hook, it allow other module can insert their code to this file. Example, in other module, we can create a new file name: video.template_block_entry_1.php in module/[module_name]/include/plugin/ with contain:

<?php echo "Hello world";

More text hello world will include to entry.html.php
