New plugin: Advanced Search

Hello

Please find attached the first attempt to port CB Advanced Search component as CB userlist component.

This plugins requires the following bug fix to be applied before using.

In admin.comprofiler.controller.php,

Change this
[code:1]
case 'pluginmenu':
[/code:1]

to this:

[code:1]
break;
case 'pluginmenu':
global $database,$mosConfig_absolute_path;
$database->setQuery("SELECT element, folder, type FROM #__comprofiler_plugin WHERE id=".(int)mosGetParam($_GET,'cid',-1));
$result=null;
$database->loadObject($result);
if($result!=null){
if(file_exists("$mosConfig_absolute_path/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/$result->type/$result->folder/toolbar.$result->element.php"«»)){
include_once("$mosConfig_absolute_path/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/$result->type/$result->folder/toolbar.$result->element.php"«»);
}
}
break;
[/code:1]

It probably contains a lot of bugs still, but should be somewhat usable.

Hi Mikko,

thanks for your great work with the advanced help plugin. I fyou use CB, you need this plugin.

Discovered a little bug inside advancedsearch.php, on line 503 /CB Advanced Search Component// has to be //CB Advanced Search Component//

two // instead of one.

I have one question, because of the use of patTemplate in your code, I get an error when using it in a Joomla 1.5 installation. Is there a workaround?

Many thanks,

Thanks for testing. This component was ported following quick and dirty approach. I do not think that patTemplate should be used at all in the long run.

For now, you can copy patTemplate to your webdirectory and add an include statement to load it at the start of this plugin.
