I'm trying to figure this one out in JCB...

Currently, I have a custom get which creates the following public function:

public function getImage()

I need to be able to add a variable in the (). In the code itself I could manually add it, but is there a way in JCB to get the public function as:

public function getImages($property_id)

At this point the Joomla get method in the view does not allow for a signature method (method that takes values)

So you will get the result of that method in the view with $this->get('Images'); and so you can pass values to the method. So the best way is to use class values, if you have a value in one method that you need in another, set it to a class value like this $this->property_id = $property_id; this way you can get the value without passing it to the method.
