Getting error while using new JParameter($plugin->params); in joomla 3.0

Question

I have used the following code in joomla 3.0 for getting plugin parameters.

new JParameter($plugin->params);

But I am getting error.

Please any one can help me.

Regards, Jaylani.

Answer 1

As JParameter was using JRegistry, here is a work around:

$params = new JRegistry();
$params->loadString($module->params);

$params->get('param_name');

Answer 2

Removed classes

• JParameter (use JForm instead or, in most circumstances, JRegistry - for example to retrieve in a component a plugin parameter).

Answer 3

A little late, but for everyone else who stumbles upon this:

Use:

json_decode($plugin->params);

I found this along with lots of other useful informations about the changes in Joomla 3.0 here: techjoomla.com

Answer 4

Try the following instead of JParameter (deprecated class in J3):

jimport('joomla.html.parameter');
$params = new JInput();
$params->get('params');

This might answer your question and solve your issue.

Answer 5

JParameter is deprecated use Registry.

use Joomla\CMS\Plugin\PluginHelper;
use Joomla\Registry\Registry;

$plugin    = PluginHelper::getPlugin('plg_Type', 'plg_Name');
$plgParams = new Registry($plugin->params);

$param     = $plgParams->get('your_param_name', 'default_value')
