Hello All,
For small screen/mobile devices, we have further optimized responsive data-grid view.
You can also have customized way to show row data in single column on small screens. You can change it’s layout with HTML/CSS code and use placeholders e.g. {unit_price} to show field names content where you want to display.
If any column is hidden by responsive behavior (screen size detection) of data-grid OR manually set to be hidden on certain screen size, then a last column with ellipsis “…” will be displayed to show hidden details.

PS: Special thanks to our customer Robert Childers for suggestions & feedback.

We’ve published a new tutorial on how to integrate PHP Grid Framework with Joomla 3.9.8. It allows using all features of our Data Grid inside Joomla and with much simpler implementations. Steps required to integrate are following:
Step1: Download Free version or Buy package from our website (if not already done) and move “lib” folder from package in your Joomla root directory, and rename “lib” folder as “phpgrid”.
Step2: Create a new file ‘demo.php‘ inside ‘phpgrid’ folder and copy paste joomla code snippet from here.
Step3: Install Joomla extension “Sourcerer (free version) By RegularLabs” from Here OR download from our Github Repository. No need to buy Pro Version.
Step4: Now after installing this extension, edit the article where you want to display grid and include the demo.php file using sourcerer php syntax:
{source}
<?php require_once JPATH_ROOT.'/phpgrid/demo.php'; ?>
{/source}
Step5: A modifications which will allow PHP Grid to perform ADD and EDIT operations inside of Joomla. Edit Joomla ‘index.php‘ file in root folder and
For Joomla 4, Paste the code below immediately before this line:
// Run the application – All executable code should be triggered through this file
require_once dirname (__ FILE__). ‘/includes/app.php’;
and For Joomla 3 or before, Paste the code before this line:
$app->execute();
This is the code to paste in index.php:
// Joomla will read the REQUEST array and the router gets confused when data grid posts data
// the data is still in the POST array so removing it this does no harm to Grid PHP
if (isset($_POST['id'])){
unset($_REQUEST['id']);
}
Result: Now Save the article and open it in browser, you will get the demo datagrid.
Next Actions: You can create more grid php files (like in step2) by copying code from package demos and include them using sourcerer syntax (step4) on your desired article of Joomla.
Let us know your feedback. If you have any questions, contact our support center.

On some cases, we just want to password protect our page without including the hassle of heavy frameworks (like Laravel, Yii, Symfony etc) and databases. This solution works without any database and have credentials hard-coded in authentication file. You can add or modify accounts by changing php array values. Refer comments inside file for configuration options.
Download basic authentication include file here.
(save it as auth.php)
Step 1) Include “auth.php” file on page which need to be password protected. Include before any output / echo and at start of code. Adjust include path accordingly where you place the file.
Step 2) Configure user/pass by editing auth.php – e.g. ‘username’ => ‘password’. You can also set after logout url. e.g. your login page url.
Result: Now when you access protected page, you will get following login screen. Entering user/password will allow you the access.
To Logout, access same grid page with logout=1 query-string param. e.g. https://example.com/grid.php?
Feel free to change the appearance by modifying css files and hacking html code.

Another update for all, we just launched our new documentation section to improve usability and better understanding of our product (PHP Grid Framework). The new documentation site is categorized in content sections on left with a search box on top right. There is also a live chat / email message box on bottom right. To go to parent website use main site link on top.
The most impressive feature is ‘quick search’ which is super fast (powered by lunr-js) and fetch results from every section of documentation in no time.
Share you feedback and improvement suggestions as well.
Happy coding.
