How to get article text by article ID in Joomla?

Question

I want to get article text by passing article ID from the joomla template.

Answer 1

Get article text by article ID in Joomla 2.5 (3 will work also according docs) plugins:

$article =& JTable::getInstance("content");
$article->load($id);
$content = '
'. $article->get("title").'
';
$content .= $article->get("introtext"); // introtext and/or fulltext

And article id is got from component/plugin parameters for example:

1. From inside own component:

   $app = JFactory::getApplication();
   $params = $app->getParams();
   $param = $params->get('terms_article_id');
   

2. From other component:

   $params = JComponentHelper::getParams('com_mycom');
   $id = $params->get('terms_article_id');
   

3. Get Module Parameter from template's php file:

   $module = JModuleHelper::getModule('mod_mymodule');
   $params = new JRegistry($module->params); // or $mymoduleParams if few used
   $id = (int) $headLineParams['count'];
