  4. 7.3 panels.module \panels_export_display()

Exports the provided display into portable code.

This function is primarily intended as a mechanism for cloning displays. It generates an exact replica (in code) of the provided $display, with the exception that it replaces all ids (dids and pids) with 'new-*' values. Only once panels_save_display() is called on the code version of $display will the exported display written to the database and permanently saved.

Parameters

object $display instanceof panels_display \n: This export function does no loading of additional data about the provided display. Consequently, the caller should make sure that all the desired data has been loaded into the $display before calling this function.

string $prefix: A string prefix that is prepended to each line of exported code. This is primarily used for prepending a double space when exporting so that the code indents and lines up nicely.

Return value

string $output The passed-in $display expressed as code, ready to be imported. Import by running eval($output) in the caller function; doing so will create a new $display variable with all the exported values. Note that if you have already defined a $display variable in the same scope as where you eval(), your existing $display variable WILL be overwritten.
