Get Joomla Banner Description in the module

joomla

Solution

If you are using default `mod_banner` of `Joomla`, you need to add some changes in it to show your description in the module where you want to show it.

You need to go to the front-end component, `models` of `com_banners` for `banners.php`.Navigation for it is `components\com_banners\models\banners.php` in this file on the `getListQuery` you need to add the following line of code in the `'a.description as description,'.` in `$query->select` like others. That's it for this file.

Now go to your `modules\mod_banners\tmpl\default.php` and access that variable description as you tried `echo $item->description`.

Or

If you don't want to change your core files then you need to do it with Template override the output from the Joomla! core.
