Hi. I'm trying to reference the currently displayed group id in a module that's displayed on the /viewgroup page. I've been trying this code but it doesn't seem to work:

$group = JTable::getInstance('Group', 'CTable');
$group->load($groupId);
then I set a variable = $group->id;

This code doesn't seem to pull the group's id though. I looked through the documentation and found info on how to call the object for a user, but not a group. Can you provide some guidance on which php code should be used to reference the group id.....I really don't want to parse my URL :)

Thanks,

Tim

Hi Tim,

Where did you call it? if you called the group id on group detail page you should use this code first :

$groupId = JRequest::getInt('groupid', '');

Thank you, this code works! Yes it was from the group detail page.
