How to create installable fields in JoomD?
Ques: So far I’m liking the JoomD package, and as a freelance developer working on 2 directory sites (retail districts) it’s saved me so much time in set up and development.
Sadly though, it is lacking one field I sorely need – a trading hours field type.
I’ve got no problems creating one if you can point me in the general direction? The features list “installable fields” and the screenshot shows custom fields but I can’t find any developer.
documentation about making them.
Should be a combination field (like the address I guess) with 14 text input boxes.
Ans: Right now there isn’t any custom field application available for download. However there few going to release very soon such as related items, radius search and few others. But until then you
can take help from the existing the custom field files. You can find these in com_joomd/libraries/apps/field/fields/address.xml and address.php. If you need to zip your files in a package and can
install using Applications tab in back end. If you find anything confusing please let me know. We’ll be happy to help you. We also list the applications developed by other developers on our site.
