Hi,

is it possible to have custom fields from resources and locations in the filter module?

At this moment I can only select custom fields from the events-XML but not from locations or resources. I've tried it like this e.g. in locations.xml:



 <field name="fassungsvermoegen" type="jevcflist" label="Fassungsvermögen" description="Wie viele Gäste haben Platz?" required="0" searchable="1" filter="1" access="1" readaccess="1">

				<option value="0">Bitte wählen</option>

				<option value="1">Bis 50 Personen</option>

				<option value="2">50 bis 100 Personen</option>

				<option value="3">100-150 Pers.</option>

</field>


So although I've set the field to "filter=1" it won't appear in the filter module.

Would this be possible or is the filter module restricted to events?


Thank You and Best Regards,
Tommy
the events filter is limited to custom fields for events I'm afraid

Hi,

is there any chance to have filters for locations custom fields and people custom fields in the future? Any plans?

Thanks and Best Regards,

Its unlikely we will be able to filter events based on location and people custom fields in the near future since it would require a series of secondary database queries

Hi Geraint,

thanks for your quick reply.

I would not need to filter events - just locations and resources.

For example: I want to find all locations with the capacity of >250 people and where smoking is allowed. The capacity options (50/100/250/500 people etc...) and 'smoking yes/no' are custom fields.

Would this be possible so a band can find suitable locations for their needs to ask for a gig?

Best Regards,
Tommy

I did get filtering of resources/people working on one client site - the problem is how to generalise this to be something that can be configured by site admin users.
