NewsPublisher

Hi BobRay,
I try to use the NewsPublisher and it working great, however i still have a question.
Since NewsPublisher has an ability to show the resource content fields, TV fields on the frontend,
Is there anyway that we can show also the Resource Template Selection?
So that i can choose what templates?

Thanks

If you add 'template' to the &show property, I think it will show it, but it will only show and allow template ID numbers.

You could create a custom TV that showed the templates and then a plugin to convert the result on save.

I think you could also use JavaScript to alter the template field to show the names. I'm not sure which would be easier.

Hi BobRay,

Thanks for that info and i'll think i will try the first one("If you add 'template' to the &show property, I think it will show it, but it will only show and allow template ID numbers.")
My Knowledge in programming is very poor, that's why i dont wanna try the other options.

Another question, do you have a feature plan on the NewsPublisher that will be able to delete the resource?
Have you ever try to use MIGX?

Thank you very much..

I haven't found the time to try MIGx, but everything I hear about it is good.

I've thought about letting users delete resources in NewsPublisher, but it raises some serious security issues. I wouldn't want users to be able to delete resources on my site from the front end.

You're right Bob, it was more on security issues if we allow to delete resources on the frontend.

I know that you are so very busy everyday, and we will be more appreciates If you have a free time to add MIGX as an additional features on NewsPublisher.
Once again thank you very much for contributing this plugin.
