[Revo] SuperBoxSelect TV

Hi,

I developped a MODx TV inspired by Resource List MODx TV and SuperBoxSelect ExtJS Plugin found here : http://www.technomedia.co.uk/SuperBoxSelect/examples3.html

"SuperBoxSelect is an extension of the ComboBox component which displays selected items as labelled boxes within the form field. As seen on facebook, hotmail and other sites, it combines both auto-complete and multi-selection capabilities."

Site : http://www.omycode.fr/modx-extras/superboxselect.html
Package : http://modx.com/extras/package/superboxselect
Github : https://github.com/omycode/SuperBoxSelect

Installation

Install via MODx Package Management !

Usage

Create a TV
Select the superboxselect input type
[optionnal] You can specify in the input options the id of a resource. Then you'll end up with a drop down list of all pages/resources that are children of that resource.

Screenshots




Futures improvements

More resources selection options (published, limit, depth, template, ...)
Easier installation through modx package manager [ed. note: ben_omycode last edited this post 14 years, 10 months ago.]

Same as your colorpicker.
That is awesome.

Just FYI, superboxselect is bundled with MODExt, you can find it in manager/assets/modext/util/utilities.js starting on line 347 (MODx Revo 2.1 RC4)

Same as colorpicker. If you can package it, do it !!

Thanks for the tips. I didn’t know that MODx provided utilities.
I’ll think about it.

ok, i’ll package them then.

Lots of views, not much replies…

Much thanks for your work .ben. This seems to be a really good replacement for the autotag TV which can become messy.
By the way, a Github repo will be welcomed ^^

Cheers

Beautiful!

I’ve just checked, the superboxselect is available in MODx Revo already as Multiple ListBox (and very buggy in MODx Revo 2.1).

Did you file those bugs?

Indeed, I didn’t notice the 2.1 version improved the ListBox (Multiple select) TV. Great news !

But for large number of resources (1000+) it can be slow to load all the resource whereas the TV I developped use the remote store option.

Besides, I didn’t manage to create a multi-select box for related pages with the ListBox. It seems there is a bug with EVAL binding (http://bugs.modx.com/issues/4616).

Noted.
I think that will go with the colorpicker first.
