I'm fairly new to Joomla and I need some help and guidance on adding tags to a form. Basically, what I want to do is, have a text box where people can enter "tags", as the person types, tags that are already in the system will show up in a drop down menu (or some other way for the user to select existing tags). Does that make since? it's a fairly common thing to do, but I can't seem to find how to do it.
Just noticed... I want to do exactly what you do with the tags field when asking a new question here.
I've tried ChronoForms, but again, can not find any information on how to add a tag field to the front-end of a form.
Thanks for any help,
Ross
Please check the AutoCompleter demo form in CFv6 - that does what you are asking for - set Multi-Select to Yes to allow multiple tags.

i am very new of Magento2, I saw in the "page" that this form should be used to call out the newsletter form :
{{block class="Magento\Newsletter\Block\Subscribe"
name="static.newsletter"
template="Magento_Newsletter::subscribe.phtml"}}
But I would like to change the words of this form, or add more words there. I have already tried looking for in the system but didn't find it and I dont know where to change it. Does anyone can help ?
There are 2 approaches for changing words inside that form.
If you want to change this form for everywhere on your Magento system, you can override it inside your theme.
app/design/frontend/[Vendor]/[Theme]/Magento_Newsletter/templates/subscribe.phtml
If you want to change this form to a specific page, you can create your own template and assign it.
I want to disable the call to variable_product_type_options in my plugin. The plugin is a little helper function, that will help the user to create custom variations, instead of going through the regular variations in the default form. I want to do this, because a product has very long loading and saving times when it has too many variations (say, for example 100). Also, nobody really wants to edit these manually. Anyway, they are loaded by default for a product of type "variable", so I want to remove this.
I know, all I have to do is this:
remove_action('woocommerce_product_write_panels', 'variable_product_type_options');
The only problem is, that I can't find the right place to do that. I have tried in the action "woocommerce_loaded" but it's still there. So I need to know which WooCommerce action will be fired after the woocommerce_product_write_panels but before the admin form for the product is processed.
I have a tumblr account that has submission enabled, and I have a short description with a form in the "description" area that appears on the sidebar. However, this description also appears on myblog.tumblr.com/submit. I'd like to remove it.
I looked at the documentation on http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/custom_themes#navigation, but haven't been able to figure out how to prevent the sidebar description from showing at the top of the submit page.
Can anyone help?
I'm not sure if I understood your question correctly. But if I did, a work around would be using jQuery to check if the current url contains the string /submit and simply disable the sidebar, or the element that contains the description.
I don't know jQuery but I know it's possible. I'd suggest you to look into this post:
How to check if the URL contains a given string?
and combine it with this line (replace the "alert part")
$("#sidebardescription).hide();
Another solution would be if Tumblr provided you with a way to only render for specific pages. They usually do that. I'd look into this part {block:SubmissionsEnabled} {/block:SubmissionsEnabled} before I go with the workaround.
Greetings,
I'm, unluckily in need of having this :
Product has (lets say) 6 attributes with "Yes/No" values.
I need a dropdown on that product's page that will populate with attributes with "yes" value.
attributes are :bundle1,bundle2....,bundle6.
When selection is made - I need to know whats have been selected to pass that to php on that page.
I have no idea what preexists in Magento (in terms of Ajax snippets) that could be used for this, searching for solution...
I used additional request.js and pulled attributes from a newly created table in DB (manually, for 1 product, just for test) and it works.
But, thats not idea, I dont want to do it manually everytime.
Syntax is killling me.
Thank you.
This may not be helpful at all... But I just recently created a module that taps into Magento's ajax autopopulate functionality. What this module does is does an autopopulate of all the manufacturers, depending on the string you are typing in. I know this isn't directly what you are wanting to do, but this may help you get started, at least with the ajax:
/app/etc/modules/Ash_Manufacturers.xml
http://pastie.org/841014
/app/code/local/Ash/Manufacturers/etc/config.xml
http://pastie.org/841017
/app/code/local/Ash/Manufacturers/controllers/IndexController.php
http://pastie.org/841018
/app/code/local/Ash/Manufacturers/Block/Manufacturers.php
http://pastie.org/841020
Look at rows 79-92 on this one:
/app/design/frontend/default/ash/template/catalog/layer/filter.phtml : http://pastie.org/841027
I'd like to add a new tab to the 'catalog->manage products->product information' page in the admin. Underneath the 'images' tab, I'd like to add a new tab for video, with a simple text input for adding a video url, which I can then grab for the frontend.
Anyone any ideas where the files are that I need to edit? I've been looking for the last couple hours with no joy. I found the list of current options in Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Eav_Mysql4_Setup but can't figure out how to add to them...
Seems it gets some from Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Catalog_Product_Edit_Tabs. If I copy one of the tab sections here and change the title to Video, I can get it to display in the tabs on the left. But how do I then add the options for it?
What you are trying to do, from the sounds of it, is to create a custom field and add it to your catalog data. The good news is that you don't need to muck around in the PHP for that.
Head to Catalog -> Attributes -> Manage Attributes and create a new attribute for yourself called "Video URL" (or something to that effect). This will probably be a text field, and you may want to hide it from comparison on the frontend of the site (select "No" for all those boxes at the bottom of the form).
Once you've created an attribute, you will need to add it to an attribute set. If all your products are of one "type", and if you didn't create any other attribute sets, this should be only one step. Head to Catalog -> Attributes -> Manage Attribute Sets and create a "New Group" called "Video" and drag your new video url attribute into it. Save the attribute set and you should now have your new tab.
The only complication from what I read in your post could be positioning it underneath the images tab. Magento adds several tabs statically (the long way, in the PHP) and doesn't generally obey ordering of the tab groups. Consider the time tradeoff.
Hope that helps. Thanks,
Joe
Per your other comments, for the URLs a simple attribute would work but files would tend to be more difficult. To add a custom tab, as you said, you can edit (or in the case of a plugin, override) Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Catalog_Product_Edit_Tabs::_prepareLayout and add your tab. You'll need to add a block or template to display your tab contents.
After that, you'll need to store the data somewhere. Looking in Adminhtml/controllers/ProductController, you should be able to hook into the catalog_product_prepare_save event to get data from $event->getRequest() and push it onto the product or save another entity as necessary.
I'm not sure how well file saving semantics would work on a product, so you may want to do your own data storage in the extension and then provide something like a getVideoForProduct method to retrieve it.
Then the only thing left to do is modify the catalog/product/view.phtml template file to include your thumbs and create a controller in your extension to provide a modal w/ the video (or do it in JS).
I know that's a bit of a general answer, but it's the rough path you would need to take for tabs. Let me know if any specific part of that is unclear.
Thanks,
Joe
