[SOLVED]Custom Fields & Filters was created by scorpion_pt

When can we expect "Custom fields" working with filters again?
This feature will make our work a lot easier if we can use custom filters with plugins like - Select Items & Reverse ( www.flexicontent.org/forum/index ... =viewtopic ).

Bug tracker issue: code.google.com/p/flexicontent/i ... akechanges

Tx for the good work

FLEXIcontent is Free but involves a very big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite being huge extension) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

The problem is that the value of the field must be calculated (execute plugin code which may trigger plugins etc), so imagine calculating the value of the field for all items ... , how do you make a custom field like google maps field filterable? I will examine if more type of fields can be made filters.

Tell me which type of field you are you thinking of?

Hi,

Can you made a try for me :

In the Flexicontent global configuration, add
'selectflexiitem' in the filterable fields

So you will have :

Code:

createdby,modifiedby,type,state,tags,checkbox,checkboximage,radio,radioimage,select,selectmultiple,selectflexiitem

And change the function onDiplayFilter in plugins/flexicontent_fields/selectflexiitem.php
By :

Code:

function onDisplayFilter(&$filter, $value='')
	{
		// execute the code only if the field type match the plugin type
		if($filter->field_type != 'selectflexiitem') return;

		// some parameter shortcuts
		$db =& JFactory::getDBO();
		$field_elements= 'SELECT DISTINCT id as value, title as text'
						 .' FROM #__content as i'
						 .' LEFT JOIN #__flexicontent_fields_item_relations as fir ON i.id=fir.value'
						 .' WHERE fir.field_id='.$filter->id
						 ;
		
		$query = preg_match('#^select#i', $field_elements) ? $field_elements : '';
		
		$db->setQuery($query);
		$results = $db->loadObjectList();
		
		if (!$results) {
			$filter->html = '';
		
		} else {
		
			$options = array();
			$options[] = JHTML::_('select.option', '', '-'.JText::_('All').'-');
			foreach($results as $result) {
				$options[] = JHTML::_('select.option', $result->value, $result->text);
			}
			$filter->html	= JHTML::_('select.genericlist', $options, 'filter_'.$filter->id, 'onchange="document.getElementById(\'adminForm\').submit();"', 'value', 'text', $value);
		}

		
	}

If it's work i will make an update of the plugin.

Regards
