Filter module - field template

$filters[$keys_by_id[18]]->params->set('params.template_filter_module', 'mytemplate.php');
$filters[$keys_by_id[18]]->onRenderFilter($section, TRUE);

But generaly in filter parameters you have different template for module and cobalt section. SO you can use 2 different templates.

Already used. Thank you.

One issue though. If you do this (ex. select.php template)

$filters[$keys_by_id[18]]->params->set('params.template_filter_module', 'select.php');
echo $filters[$keys_by_id[18]]->onRenderFilter($section, TRUE);  

then this template is assigned to all filter modules on same page.

$filter = $filters[$keys_by_id[18]];
$old_template = $filter->params->get('params.template_filter_module')
$filter->params->set('params.template_filter_module', 'select.php');
echo $filter->onRenderFilter($section, TRUE);  
$filter->params->set('params.template_filter_module', $old_template);

Can I pass prefiltered link as option value for this?

You want result to be affected? Cannot get idea. Where to path prefiltered link and for what?

At the moment I'm using html joomla module to custom create prefiltered links for cobalt. But this is not ideal because it does not add/remove values dynamically.

For the new thing I want to use filter module without search button but instead I want to use select oncahnge and pass field values as <option value="prefiltered link">. This way when user selects value from select it gives results from selected value.

Then in custom filter module template add javascript that on change would submit the form.

If I'm looking at option value of prefiltered link that I custom created it's like

<option value="index.php?option=com_cobalt&amp;task=records.filter&amp;clean=1&amp;section_id=1&amp;Itemid=134&amp;filter_name[0]=filter_kcefbce7024531e43eecec0b58c7a75ab&amp;filter_val[0]=CFV_APPROPRIATE_FAMILIES_TS">

but if I use echo $filters[$keys_by_id[18]]->onRenderFilter($section, TRUE); then the option value is

<option value="CFV_APPROPRIATE_FAMILIES_TS">

and if I submit this value nothing is filtered.

But if you click URL is it filtered?

You mean this? If so yes, this is filtered.

index.php?option=com_cobalt&task=records.filter&clean=1&section_id=1&Itemid=134&filter_name[0]=filter_kcefbce7024531e43eecec0b58c7a75ab&filter_val[0]=CFV_APPROPRIATE_FAMILIES_TS

Anf who do you apply <option> value? Location through Javasript?

Are you ib subfolder? Try to put your link through JRoute

<option value="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option.....') ?>">Text</value>

Sergey Are you ib subfolder?

What subfolder? I'm doing this in filter module template.

Sergey Try to put your link through JRoute

Values are generated from this

$filter = $filters[$keys_by_id[ID]];
$old_template = $filter->params->get('params.template_filter_module')
$filter->params->set('params.template_filter_module', 'select.php');
echo $filter->onRenderFilter($section, TRUE);  
$filter->params->set('params.template_filter_module', $old_template);

I don't understand how to put option value here.

What is the field? You mean that echo $filter->onRenderFilter($section, TRUE); gives you <option value="index.php?.....?

Hidden text

Sergey You mean that echo $filter->onRenderFilter($section, TRUE); gives you <option value="index.php?.....?

No, echo $filter->onRenderFilter($section, TRUE); gives me <option value="LANGUAGE_CONSTANT"> since my values are as constants.

Then where is this from?

<option value="index.php?option=com_cobalt&task=records.filter&clean=1&section_id=1&Itemid=134&filter_name[0]=filter_kcefbce7024531e43eecec0b58c7a75ab&filter_val[0]=CFV_APPROPRIATE_FAMILIES_TS">

This is if I custom create prefilter link, hardcoded.

Then why you need to use field template at all? Just hardcode it in filter module template.

Beause of this

klox7 But this is not ideal because it does not add/remove values dynamically.

If I hardcode it and there are some empty values then user will get no results.
