I hope you can help with this...

MightyResource version of Multi Level Select could add sub levles as so..

Root

--sub root

----sub sub root

instead of using the "Values constructor" param.

is this not possible any more as there are a few Multi Level Select fields i need to copy with the same structure in different Item Types. If not is there a work around as the lists i have to construct are quite extensive.

Also if not could you please give this option in the next update as for some situations this would make things easier.

I hope this makes sense

thanks in advance

this is my problem i need to solve

I need the first Level Labels "Start Time" so i need to list in this instance every 15 minute increments of the day for example.

00:00am, 00:15am, 00:30am, 00:45am .......1: 00pm, 1:15pm, 1:30pm e.t.c

Now i need the second Level Labels "Finish Time" so i also need to list in this instance every 15 minute increments of the day for example.

00:00am, 00:15am, 00:30am, 00:45am .......1: 00pm, 1:15pm, 1:30pm e.t.c

as you could see this potentially is a very extensive list to create in you Multi Level Select field.

I don't know if it would be easer to create a script maybe to create such a list or maybe is it possible to create a sql query maybe there is another solution?

You help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again

Just use 3 different fields

On a day - datatime - date display format custom %A

Starts at - select

Ends at - select

Then in article template

fields_by_id[1]->result ?> fields_by_id[2]->result ?> - fields_by_id[3]->result ?>

On a day - datatime - date display format custom %A

is the param>Input Settings>Inputs default value:custom

then param>Input Settings>Inputs custom value:%A

also is it possible to add this option/format within "Date and Time" Field as i could imagine this would be needed regularly.

Thanks

Field template in com_cobalt/fields/****/tmpl/ where *** is the name of the field.

I think it is already in date and time field. At least I have those parameters there.

BTW, do I have to use a Cobalt HTML Override to keep my (field) templates safe?

Do field templates work with Joomla Overrides system?

No, ANd I do not think it is possible to implement. Because Joomla has it's own system. It only work for layouts, plugins and modules.

Maybe with backup/import/export feature?

Akeeba will make it perfectly.

Does it make sense...

It does not make all the sense. I'll look into Joomla override process and see if we can extend of it.

Would be cool to have an overview about all overrides... so, nobody has to remember each field, or has to open the parametes. A list that shows the templates grouped/filtered by field... or type.

I added some text to tutorial how to make custom template in community knowledge. I pointed where overrides should be located.
