FLEXIContent - v2.0.0 - final for J2.5 released (r1648)

Next step for FC v2.0 (besides fixing any discovered bugs) can be to include the 2 missing modules:
- Flexicontent Universal Module
- Flexicontent Tag Cloud module

Also it is missing some updates to the code of system plugins to work in J1.6/1.7 , and a handful of features that the v1.5.6 has

Not sure if this is a bug or not, but it seems I get different item URLs depending on where the item is linked.

I created the following:

Category called "category-name"
Item called "item-name" (in category-name)
Menu item called "menu-title" which is a flexicontent article for the item.

I get the following SEF URLS:

When the item is accessed via the menu:
www.site.com/menu-title

When the item is accessed via the category page:
www.site.com/menu-title/8-category-name/6-item-name

The main module for Flexicontent 2.0
problems are likely to have, but it works.

Arkadiy, the 2 missing modules (Universal items module and tag cloud module) will be included in the next beta, i don't expect them to need many changes.

Also i must update the system plugin, all a high priority is to right to update notification plugin to send email notification when an item is edited by an author. Thanks for your support

Regards

Need to make draft job with the tag cloud module?

Arkadiy, i expect the changes needed for this to be small, i will do it soon, thank you

Hi,

I come back to give some feed back, in particular one
: the template duplication

1/ I duplicate the "default" template, I rename it as "region" (so, now it works, great !)
2/ I create a type "Region", assigning it the "region" template
3/ I create a custom field, assigning it to the type "Region"
4/ In the template "region", I place my custom field in an existing position
5/ I create an article, assigning it the type "Region", I fill the fields with some information
6/ Then I create a menu link to my article. But I can't see my custom field. Actually I understood that my article follow the settings for the "default" template, and not the custom settings I made with my own template

(hope my explanations are understandable)

Joomla 1.7.0
Flexicontent r914

At a couple of places the parameters are not loaded because of some changes in joomla 1.6/1.7, i think this is the same problem, as one reported before for tag menu link parameters ignored, thanks for reporting.

Your words point to the above explanation, will fix this.

Keep an eye for other places that maybe parameters are ignored (not loaded properly), there be one or 2 more places.

Hi guys,

Do you know if you'll be able to include the following feature request in FlexiContent 2.0:

[attachment=0:3kocvw9g]<!-- ia0 -->item-list2.png<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:3kocvw9g]

The idea is to allow us to keep filtering from a specific category so that it's easier to manage a large number of articles.

The values of these drop-downs would need to be persistent (at least for the current session), and they would also need to be available when creating a new article.

We are waiting for this feature before we are able to adopt FlexiContent on our site.

If you are able to include this feature, you'd be the only extension anywhere that provides this lost functionality back to Joomla! 1.7.

Please say it's possible, and that we'll see it before you release version 2.0
