You can change the output through preprocessing, for example in your theme's template.php file, or in your custom module (see also: https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!system!theme.api.php/function/hook_preprocess_HOOK/7). To use the hook_preprocess_block hook, as shown below, the core module "Block" needs to be enabled. If used in a module, in yourmodule.info: name = Whois Alter Module description = A module to change the output of whois. core = 7.x package = Drupal 7 Misc files[] = whois_alter.module dependencies[] = block In whois_alter.module: <?php // $Id$ /** * @file * A module to demonstrate hook_preprocess_block to alter the output of another module * * This module alters the output of the whois module */ /** * Implements hook_help(). */ function whois_alter_help($path, $arg) { if ($path == 'admin/help#whois_alter') { return t('A module to alter whois output.'); } } /** * Implements hook_block_info(). */ function whois_alter_block_info() { $blocks = array(); $blocks['list_modules'] = array( 'info' => t(' Alters the output of the whois module'), 'cache' => DRUPAL_NO_CACHE, ); return $blocks; } /** * Implements hook_preprocess_block(). */ function whois_alter_preprocess_block(&$variables, $hook){ if (isset($variables['elements']['whois_lookup_data'])) { $whois_modified = whois_alter_modify_whois($variables['elements']['whois_lookup_data']['#children']); $variables['elements']['whois_lookup_data']['#children'] = $whois_modified; $variables['content'] = $variables['elements']['whois_lookup_data']['#children']; } } function whois_alter_modify_whois($content) { // do what you want to do to modify the output return $altered_content; } For Theme preprocessing, just use the functional part of the module in template.php: function yourtheme_preprocess_block(&$variables, $hook){ if (isset($variables['elements']['whois_lookup_data'])) { $whois_modified = yourtheme_modify_whois($variables['elements']['whois_lookup_data']['#children']); $variables['elements']['whois_lookup_data']['#children'] = $whois_modified; $variables['content'] = $variables['elements']['whois_lookup_data']['#children']; } } function yourtheme_modify_whois($content) { // do what you want to do to modify the output return $altered_content; }
