OK guys the obvious question would probbly CB or Jomsocial, but here what I’d love to do:

Install an extension ot component to provide my users create car profiles – add pictures, text, reviews etc. – sort of like Cardomain.com.

Wondered if CB or Jomsocial are appropriate or is there another recommended extension?

Thanks ahead.

Hi Saguaros and thanks for your suggestion. I was considering JS or CB, but they do not have specific cars filter modules, which I’ll need, so I was not sure I will be able to make it work like Cardomain.com community (people to create their car profiles from frontend).

I may need custom work on this and while I know you guys don’t provide such service I always ask you first, because you are the creators of Teline IV and therefore prople who know it best.

Right now I’m trying to use JA K2 Filter & Search, but I really need the autopopulate function and it does not hae it yet. Do you think you guys could/would add it? I just upgraded the module to 1.0.4 and it no longer allows me to filter by Extra fileds (I created a thread over at module forum about this issue).

So if someone from the team to work with me on this I am very happy to pay and collaborate. Thanks again and please let me know what you think.

Hi Obliat,

Yes, currently it has not yet, will pass this to dev team for further consideration to add this feature for upcoming version or not because it is complex logic and medium priority.

We appreciate your idea and willing to add new feature into our product if others are also interested in this feature. However, if you want to add or custom a feature as your case special, you could hire a developer from freelancer site as Joomlancers

Thanks for your reply HeR0 and for you guys to willing to add new features.

This is my third year with Joomlart and there is one thing I am happy to do – to try contribute as much to the coomunity here. It really does not matter that much for a single person – yes, I can go ahead and have it done for me, but when it is about a good or must have feature then we all better do what we can so the whole community can benefit.

Again, thnks for your reply in the JA K2 Search forum as well, where you said you guys will include the Autopopulate feature in the next module version. I believe a lot of people will find it very useful.

Best Wishes
Martin

Thanks Arvind, awesome! I also have my extra fields back 🙂 – were gone in 1.0.4.

Quick question – would I be able to customize it to work with Drop down selection fields (as this is what my readers need Autopopulate for) or it would be a difficult coding and/or you guys plan to add it later?

The idea is to have it work like on any Car website where you post ads and there’s filter module – when you Select a vehicle in Make filed it autopopulates Model filed (they are both of Dropdown type in my setup).

Thanks again

Best wishes

Martin

For now the auto-populate works only with text fields. I was planning to focus the next version on a better layout (component level) instead of module level right now.

I will add your request for auto-populate to the backlog.. lets see if its possible..
