Magento – Magento 2: How to add PHP code into CMS Block using .phtml file

blockscustom blockmagento2PHP

I have followed the below links to try and get PHP code into CMS Block which links to a .phtml file, with no avail.

Show content of phtml file on static block Magento 2

Currently on our M1 website we have the below setup:

Page Content:

{{block type="catalog/product" template="catalog/pages/towbars.phtml"}}

Referencing the links above, I have tried modifying this, however I am unsure exactly what my "block class" should be and the "template".

{{block class="Path\To\Block\Class" template="Namespace_Module::filename.phtml"}}

Can someone please give me a working example of the above code for Magento 2 and the location of the file, etc.

Many Thanks,
Barry

You can use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template class to call phtml files

{{block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" template="Vendor_Module::myfiles/myfile.phtml"}}

To call advanced form use Magento\CatalogSearch\Block\Advanced\Form block class.

{{block class="Magento\CatalogSearch\Block\Advanced\Form" name="block_name" template="Magento_CatalogSearch::advanced/form.phtml"}}

I hope it will help for you.

The syntax is correct, so the issue is theme misconfiguration or the "Test" output is being hidden in the browser. View source and confirm that the latter is not the case.

Try creating a copy of the file at frontend/base/default/template/page/page.phtml as this template location has to work - if the content appears, the issue is theme misconfiguration.

Try this

custom file path(Based on your theme you can change it)

app/design/frontend/{Package}/{theme}/Magento_Theme/templates/html/test.phtml

calling in xml layout file

<block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" name="test_file" template="Magento_Theme::html/test.phtml"/>

calling in blocks and cms pages

{{block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" name="test_file" template="Magento_Theme::html/test.phtml"}}

calling in any phtml file

<?php include ($block->getTemplateFile('Magento_Theme::html/test.phtml')) ?>

OR
as before

<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock("Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template")->setTemplate("Magento_Theme::html/test.phtml")->toHtml();?>
