Community Builder Resources Favorites tab

This Community Builder (CB) Plug-in allow user to view and manage its own Joomsuite Resources favorites.

It is derived and inspired from the Mighty Touch plug-in for resources. CB does not allow dynamics tabs, then this plug-in create 3 tabs to show 3 kind of items types fav. You can use only one, or all, and create new by editing xml installation file.

I haven’t tested this possibility, but normally visitor and user can also view favorites of other users on their profile page.

If you need to show other JS Resources stuff for a user (rated, favorites, commented, last-visited, created, user_category), you can modify plug-in code to show this (on line 140 in file adt_res_fav.php).

I not have enough time to modify this plug-in anymore, but I think it possible to allow choosing view.

Hope this will be helpful for some of you :)

Somone told me that this plugin does not work properly with the new 1.5 version of Resource.

It seems to work only with 1.4.x version.

Hi Christophe

Yes, it works, but a few other changes needed, I have changed #__js_res_favorite to #__jos_js_res_record in some places, but this still only works with Resources 1.4.7. Also, when viewing other users/members CB Profiles, you see your own items, not theirs - as my php/mysql knowledge is limited, I am not sure where I can change this, but I will have a look, thanks,

regards, Joe

PS I have been looking for a freelancer to make a new version of this plugin, but cannot find anyone that has a good knowledge of Community Builder and  Mighty Extensions.

Just one addition... here is an interesting CB tab:

CB Menu Page TAB

"This Community Builder plugin allows you to embed an existing Joomla page (menu item) into a CB tab. It basically provides ability to display any component in a CB tab.

Note that once installed you should test functionality carefully. Some components may have internal links setup that force-redirect away from the tab."

 

Maybe worth a try to show "MY SUBMISSIONS" or the "Resources Users homepage" ;-) Will try it as soon as possible and will write a review...

Hello maikkaune

I tried that but couldn't get it to work with Mighty Extensions, I think that it only really works with Joomla's main article categories. Anyway, I have had a plugin made, at my own expense, to do this now. Thanks for trying to help,

Regards, Joe

@joeslogic

Yes, partially you are right. Did a quick test. It´s working with the list view etc. but not with the users homepage. The list view is not bad at all... but when you click on any filter or article link, you will be carried away to the original menuitem and its module assignment (obviously the right behavior from the joomla point of view!)

Maybe this can be tricked with a menu Alias?! Because of the joomla feature/bug, that the alias does not inherit the ItemId ;-) :-)

It should be possible to enter a link-URL in the parameters... and not only ItemIds.

Very unfortunate.

Yes, it is a pity that it can't show individual shops, but maybe still a useful plugin for other uses.

Which one do you mean? The Favorites Tab plugin doesn't, don't know about the CB Menu Page TAB though, probably does, I would think. The plugin I had made does seem to work with CB 1.3, though I haven't fully tested it yet.

The Community Builder Resources Favorites Tab/Plugin doesn't work with Resources above version 1.4.7.

So, even if you edit it, if you use later versions of Resources, it still doesn't work.

If you see my first post in this thread, you can see that I edited some of the code in the plugin ccrosaz (Christophe) made, but it is not that useful, even with the edits.

(Mainly, I have changed #__js_res_favorite to #__jos_js_res_record in some places)

I have attached the old plugin with the edited code.
