Hello,

The methods addTemplate and addTemplateVariable doesn't exist in phpdocx 5, only in phpdocx 3 and previous versions. With phpdocx 5 you need to use the CreateDocxFromTemplate class to open the DOCX template and then use addTable (http://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/word-content/add-table-Word-document-with-PHP) to add a new table at the end of the document or replaceVariableByWordFragment (http://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/templates/replace-variable-word-fragment-Word-document) to replace a placeholder by a table.

Regards.

Thank you for the answer. Where are upgrading from version 3 to version 5. What the replacement for the version 3 command: $docx->addTemplateVariable('VarTemplate', ''.$Vartemp.'');

We want to replace some variables in our template

I found the answer :) replaceVariableByText

But how can i insert a complete table in the middle of a template? replaceVariableByText doesn't work...The table is put on the end of the Word template...

$docx->addTable($Array_Table, $paramsTable);

Hello,

We recommend you to read the upgrading guide available on:

http://www.phpdocx.com/files/miscellaneous/from-phpdocx-v3.7-to-v5.pdf

For example instead of addTemplateVariable you need to use replaceVariableByText.

Regards.

Thank you for the help file.

I only have one problem....The $docx->addTable($Array_Table, $paramsTable); is working in the template, only the table is set at the end of the output docx. Is it possible to set some coordinates for the table in the template file.

Hello,

You could replace an existing placeholder in the template by a table using WordFragments and the replaceVariableByWordFragment method.

Regards.

It is working. This is the solutions

$wf = new WordFragment($docx, 'document');
$wf->addTable($Array_Table_Value, $paramsTable);
$docx->replaceVariableByWordFragment(array('Array_Table_Value' => $wf), array('type' => 'block'));
