Missing category url

lux0r

Hi.
I'm overriding layout to show search results (articles) as my template blog layout.
I rearranged Dust fields and all it's fine except for the category url. It is not present on the json article item.
It is very useful for site navigation to hyperlink the category name field.
How can I add it on the json item?

p.s. Another question... how to format "published_date" field in a different way than default (Y-m-d)?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Megafilter doesn't export category url. But you can add it into file

plugins\jamegafilter\content\helper.php

check function getItem($id, $catList, $lang)

"published_date" can be different format. Change it at $item->attr['published_date']['frontend_value']

Hi.
Changed:
$item->attr['published_date']['frontend_value'] = array( strtotime($baseItem->publish_up) );

to:
$item->attr['published_date']['frontend_value'] = array(date_format($baseItem->publish_up, 'd F Y'));

It doesn't work. Date is always showed in Y-m-d format.
I think there is something on dust rendering for type "date".

Hi,
You can do this at helper.php

$item->attr['published_date']['frontend_value'] = array(date('d F Y', strtotime($baseItem->publish_up)));

And change components\com_jamegafilter\assets\js\main.js to this

It doesn't work.
Changing main.js avoid to format date in Y-m-d but now the dates are showed in unix timestamp format (like this: 1589456413).

This is the line you are talking about to modify on helper.php (**)?

if ($baseItem->publish_up != '0000-00-00 00:00:00') {
				if ($this->checkPublished('published_date')) {
					$item->published_date = array( strtotime($baseItem->publish_up) );
				}

				if ($this->checkDisplayOnFO('published_date')) {
					**$item->attr['published_date']['frontend_value'] = array( strtotime($baseItem->publish_up) );**
					$fieldconfig = $this->getFieldConfig('published_date');
					$item->attr['published_date']['title'] = array($fieldconfig['title']);
					$item->attr['published_date']['type'] = $fieldconfig['type'];
				}
			}

Solved applying your suggests on main.js and making some changes in the function "afterGetData" on mine ovverrided jamegafilter template.
Changing file that cannot override (as main.js) is never the best solution, but for now it's ok.
I can suggest you to implement a call to a dust date format helper on "product-item.php"?
This is a file that can be override and I think may be a good date formatting solution for multilanguage site or site in a different language than english.

I'm trying now to add category url...

EDIT:
For category url, seems getItem function in the file plugins\jamegafilter\content\helper.php doing nothing for item properties.
A simple example, just tried to change

$item->name = $baseItem->title;

$item->name = 'Dummy';

but the name of the articles does not change.

It's ok, I don't indexing after changes in helper.
So I added url in cat branch:
"cat":{"value":["1743"],"frontend_value":["Paesi"],"url":["/it/paesi"],"title":["Category"],"type":"single"}

In my template I've:

{@none}
{@eq value="cat"}
<a href="{???}">{.value|s}</a>
{/eq}
{/none]

How can access url in ???.

EDIT:
Nevermind. I created the hyperlink inside afterGetData function and put it in the frontend_value.
