Magento insert CMS block in PHTML template

Date June 16, 2014 Author By Razvan Mocanu Category Magento how to

Wanna insert a Magento CMS block in a PHTML template file?

Here is how you do it:

<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('cms/block')->setBlockId('cms_block_id')->toHtml() ?>

Where ‘cms_block_id’ is exactly that, the block id, not the block title.

That’s it.
