Hey,
I'm trying to create a custom field plugin but can't find much documentation on it.
I need to develop a field that populates a drop-down with items from selected other components (k2 & my own).
Creating a form element that displays a list of the items is easy but I don't quite understand the Virtuemart API...
What I really need is an example custom field plugin that renders a normal input on the back-end on displays the entered string on the front-end (just like a normal string custom field), from there I know what I'm doing.
Cheers
+1 .. any devs care ?
Hello
Yes we do care.
At the moment we do not have spcific documentation, but you can have a look here: http://docs.virtuemart.net/api-vm2/
It is an automatic documentation done with Doxygen.
I hope this will help you.
Thanks alatak but that is exactly what was confusing me lol! I don't even know where to start...
Would someone be so kind as to give me the basics on how to create a custom field plugin?
I think its very important information as I'm sure it would encourage more 3rd parties to make Virtuemart extensions and if someone does help I suggest publishing it in your wiki.
Thanks
Hello
May be you can start by reading the code of the plugins that we provide ?
This is a good start :)
