Re: glz_custom_fields
I found after upgrading to the latest glz_ my States and Countries list was re-sorted. For example, my countries select list starts now with South Korea and ends with Zimbabwe.
Between the two, the list goes from S-A, then starts again with Sri Lanka-Zimbabwe. No idea why this happened (I did not do anything) so thought I should put it out there for Gerhard.

Re: glz_custom_fields
I have a post on this forum for which I am seeking help.
In order to help me, Els asked (comment #12) about the option: “Treat as a static section?” which is included in the sed_section_fields plugin. I’m using v0.5.3 which I believe Gerhard kindly upgraded to make it compatible with glz_custom_fields v1.2.3 (which I also have installed).
The reason I am posting here is that I was wondering if either of these two plugins could be causing the problem I’m experiencing. In short, I can’t seem to get the search function to work with a static page.
Gerhard, if you have the time, would you mind taking a quick look at my post (link above) to confirm that neither of these plugins is causing the problem. If anyone else has time to kill, I would really appreciate any feedback.
Many thanks.
Update: Problem not related to the plugins (AFAIK). If anyone is curious I’ve updated the thread in the post link above. Thanks anyway :)

Re: glz_custom_fields
Here’s an idea/feature suggestion:
An option to input PHP instead of Values in the CF editing screen. Upon entering the Write tab, the PHP script gets executed and returns the value(s) for the customfield. A sort of mini-plugin for glz_c_f.

Julian, make sure you download the most recent version (check the glz_custom_fields Google group for the link). I’ve added -_ to the allowed characters for custom field names.

Luca, is v0.3 the most recent version of your plugin? Want to implement it in the next version of glz_custom_fields.
In the future, if you have any issues like this one, drop me a line! I have dropped the ball a bit with the plugin before TXP 4.2.0, but I’m back on track now. Looking at having monthly releases, even if they’re just mini ones. Yep, that’s right, new release coming out this month ; ).
Cheers!

Hey Jonathan, this is not a bug. By default, since v1.2.3, custom field values are displayed “as entered”. Check the plugin preferences to set value sorting.

Hmm, this sounds interesting. I can see a cross between my trigger keywords custom fields and your suggestion Jelle. Care to send me an e-mail and elaborate on how you’re planning to use this functionality? A real world example would help clarify the requirements.
Cheers, Gerhard.

Yes

Cool, of course I suggest you to check the (minimal) plugin’s code. I wouldn’t trust myself as a programmer ;)

That’s really a good news Gerhard, thank you!

Cool, will take a look in a minute.
On another note, how many of you are still using PHP4? I was wondering if I can remove PHP4 support by moving everyting to PHP5 OO?

Re: glz_custom_fields
Hi Gerhard,
I’ve re-downloaded v1.2.3 from Google Groups and i still can’t use underscores on custom fields names. They are removed after saving. on_section_front_page
becomes onsectionfrontpage
. Next to the input field I still read “Only word characters allowed”.
Thanks.
