frontend_module - Twig Function

The frontend_module function renders a front end module.

To render a front end module that already exists in the database (similar to the {{insert_module::*}} insert tag) you can pass its ID:

{# Renders the front end module ID 1701 #}
{{ frontend_module(1701) }}

You can also override the data for an existing front end module:

{# Renders the front end module ID 1864 and overrides its `hardLimit` setting #}
{{ 
    frontend_module(1864, {
        hardLimit: 0
    })
}}

You can also render a front end module on the fly by passing the type of the front end module and the configuration:

{# Renders a `newslist` front end module with the passed data #}
{{
    frontend_module('newslist', {
        news_archives: [1, 2],
        news_template: 'news_latest',
        news_order: 'order_date_desc',
        numberOfItems: 10,
        imgSize: [0, 0, '_news_list'],
    })
}}

You can also pass an existing fragment reference, if one was provided by a controller.

{# Renders the front end module according to the passed `FragmentReference` #}
{{ frontend_module(fragment_reference) }}

Arguments

• typeOrId: Either the type of a front end module, the database ID of an existing front end module or a fragment reference.
• data: The data for the front end module to be rendered. You can also use this to overwrite the configuration of an existing front end module.
