Re: glz_custom_fields

Great – because I have a project on hold waiting for glz_ and mem_ plugin upgrades for 4.2.

Sorry about the MBP – mine works great!

Re: glz_custom_fields

BTW, I think Stef made some changes to the plugin to make it work with the latest version of jQuery shipped with 4.2 (not sure about that).

The main issues I see are that select drop downs are not visible on the public side, and the search feature does not work for me – although its possible I have implemented it incorrectly.

Yes, I have. If you want my modded version as a base, gerhard, drop me a line. The plugin didn’t need much tweaking to get it going.

Will be looking at a plugin upgrade this week and will update the forum thread this weekend. Thanks!

Really good news, thanks!

Excuse me for the off-topic.
I noticed that in txp 4.2.0 custom fields ids have changed from “custom_x” to “custom-x”. Is there a particular reason for that?
Not complaining, just curious. Actually it took me some time to understand why my pre-4.2.0 jquery plugins were not working

OT: Have they? In my copy of 4.0.8 they use HTML id = custom-x and name = custom_x, the same as they do in 4.2.0. Unless I’m not looking in the same place you are?! You mean on the Write tab, yes?

Re: glz_custom_fields

Oops sorry Bloke, I was terribly wrong (again).
I forgot I had glz_custom_fields installed – which causes the ids to change.
Please consider my question non-existant. thank you

Just sent you an e-mail, waiting to see your changes. Thanks for letting me know about your modded version!

I still didn’t check out the new TXP, will need to have a look first at what has changed. I am aware there are some new methods for plugins and in-built support for unlimited custom fields which shouldn’t require a TXP patch to get the plugin working – yay!

You got mail ;-)

Yep, they are all documented on Textbook to give you a helping hand.

Looking forward to what you can come up with under the new system…

Re: glz_custom_fields

Gerhard/Stef – my comments earlier re the drop down select boxes not working on the public side (nor the the search feature) hold true for Stef’s mod – I tried it earlier.

I didn’t think I let the plugin out of my sight; got no record of sending it to you (weird…), but I guess I must have made an exception since you were an existing subscriber and asked nicely ;-)

For the record I didn’t look at the client side portion so there’s every chance it continues to unfunction. I only needed it for the admin side, so that’s the bit I tinkered with. If I were you I’d forget my mod ever existed and wait for the official version anyway; relying on someone else’s hackery when that person is waaay out of their depth in someone else’s code is a recipe for something other than cookies made in heaven!

Re: glz_custom_fields

Stef, I got the file from Jakob, and yes, I am a subscriber. Jakob was sharing some info on one of his sites and also trying to help with an issue involving glz_custom_fields.

Just wanted to mention the errors for Gerhard’s benefit really. I am waiting for the next release…;-)

Ahhh, that explains it; we’re working on a site together using TXP 4.2.0 and glz_cf is an integral part. Thought I was going mad for a moment there! Thanks for clarifying. We now return to our original broadcast…
