Custom Fields Error

[Fredie]

Even after uninstalling and reinstalling just JEvents 3.07 and the Custom Fields Plugin, 3.03, I get the following error whenever I access any events related page.

Fatal error: Call to undefined method JRegistry::setValue() in D:\13projects\_CSDweb\plugins\jevents\jevcustomfields\jevcustomfields.php on line 680

After reinstalling JEvents and Custom Fields I received a warning message saying that custom fields config feile fields.xml upated to fields_jform.xml and that the plugin needs to be changed, which I've have done.

What do I need to do to get JEvents Custom Fields to work?

Thanks..fred

Sorry for the delay in responding - I'm on vacation this week only working a couple or hours day and one of the other main support person is moving house today ( )

Please change line

Code: Select all

$registry->setValue("indexedvisiblefilters", $indexedvisiblefilters);

to

Code: Select all

$registry->set("indexedvisiblefilters", $indexedvisiblefilters);

and it should work. It is in a particular code combination that we had not tested - sorry for the inconvenience

Thanks... the code chage got rid of the error, but I'm still unable to use custom fields. Even thought I have them all selected/filled in, I'm receiving the following message when I try to save an event with the custom fileds activated.

The field (Select List) is required
The field (Text Field) is required
The field (Boolean) is required
The field (Multi Select List) is required

You have required="1" for these fields AND have filled in their values before submitting the form?

If so it sounds that though there could be a javascript clash on your site.

Does it work in the backend?

I'll need to look at the problem in action and run it through a javascript debugger - can you send me login details for a user who can create an event via PM so I can take a look?

[Fredie]

Currently, JEvents is only installed on my localhost development machine. JEvents/Custome Fields do not work in the backend. I've gotten it to save, when adding a new event in the backedn by changing all of the required="1" to required="0" in the fields_jform.xml file.

Remember when you have a required field you MUST change the value from the default value e.g. if you have a text field with default="please give some text" and you do not change the text from "please give some text" it will say the required field has NOT been filled in. Is that what is happening?

Are you using the standard Joomla admin template? If not can you try that as a test.

Also try different WYSIWYG editor.

Any of that help?

I've modified the fields_jform.xml so that there is only a single custom field (Radio List tooltip). When it's coded, required="1" I can't save the data even thought I've change the default setting. I've also tried with two different admin templates (isis and hathor) and three different editors, but with all of them, I can't save. I keep getting the 'The field (Radio List tooltip) is required' message.

Hello,

Try adding a 3rd options 'Please Select' and setting that option as default..

Does that work?

Many thanks

Still no-go. 'Pleas Select' shows as the default item, but with 'No' selcted, I still can't save. Here's the fields_jform.xml file content.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<form><fields>
<fieldset addfieldpath="/plugins/jevents/jevcustomfields/customfields/" name="default">
<!-- Access levels 1=Public, 2=Registered, 3=Special etc. //-->
<field name="field5" type="jevcfradio" required="1" default="0" label="Radio List" description="Radio List tooltip" allowoverride="1" filter="1" filtermenusandmodules="1" filterdefault="0" access="1" requiredmessage="The field (Radio List tooltip) is required" readaccess="1">
<!-- radio MUST have numeric values//-->
<option value="0">Please Select</option>
<option value="1">No</option>
<option value="2">Yes</option>
</field>
</fieldset>
</fields></form>

Please change line 234 of plugins/jevevents/jevcustomfields/customfields/jevcfform.php to

Code: Select all

if(testitem.name == name || "custom_"+testitem.name == name || testitem.id == name  || ("#"+testitem.id) == name  || testitem.hasClass(name.substr(1))){

from

Code: Select all

if(testitem.name == name || testitem.id == name  || ("#"+testitem.id) == name  || testitem.hasClass(name.substr(1))){

Then the required check should work.
