Seems to work nicely, its just quite slow to respond.
Is that by design to limit hits to the database or is it just slow?
I have some Problems, when I click into the field, the blue box appears and then it's white again and not active, I can't type.
I have to rightclick into the field then close the dialogue and then I can type.
@Dahaniel :
dude.. try different browsers. it sounds like its client side problem to me (not actually a coder though)
just give it a try
Hmm, it's in Firefox, rather common browser. Maybe some other plugins are interfering, I'll try that.
same problem as Dahaniel although no plugins added except youtubereloaded!
You have to hold left click while typing!
I worked now but there is another problem:
It makes any phrase of more than 1 word into many tags e.g Business Adminstration as " business, adminstration, " although I press enter button after writing both not after typing each word alone.
Lastly, when does the autocomplete showS? I tried at different places but what only happens is chaning anything written in fields into tags but with no autocomplete.
Thanks
ok.. if some one explain to me what this plugin do ? i upload the plugin and now what ? i an sorry if the question is stupid ..its like the autocomplete plugin ?
This plugin is Great Idea and essential for my site - but I am having exactly the same problem as Dahaniel - I tested my site out with a few Beta tester who reported that firefox wouldn't work (ie they need to press the r key to activate) but explorer does.. problem is that this plugin will be used 'world wide' -- has anybody come up with a solution??
theres a bug .. when this is on tags dont get saved site wide...any work arounds??
nice plug. tested with tidypics and typing in tags works. separation of tags looks def. nice!
may it be that the autocomplete function only works on tags reffering to the same object type?
e.g. i entered tags for an album but when i entered the same tags on a photo i did not suggest the completion. whereas on the second photo it completed tags i used for the first photo.
I have a dude, whats up when i wan to tag with a new tag, i mean the tag doesn't exist.
Greetings and Congrats for this great plugin!!
HI ,
I have many problem with your plugin. I couldnt add location , interests, skills etc .. in profile page(FF), sometimes i couldnt even type on that textbox.. Why?
Pedro,
Not able to make this work recently with elgg 1.6.1, im sure its another plugin conflicting, but just wondered if you had any idea. I have been using this since 1.5 without issues, but recently it looks like newer jQuery plugins are breaking this.
Has anybody solved the Firefox click not giving giving the inputbox focus problem with this plugin? Woult love to hear about your solution.
Elgg version: 1.7.1 2010040201
Hey guys! Just a tip: in the file /mod/autobox/views/default/input/tags.php, at line 103, there are the references to "pre_match", "match" and "post_match", exactly like follows:
<script type="text/javascript">
if(!window.console){
console = typeof(console) !== 'undefined' ? console : { log: function(msg) { $('#log').html(msg + '<br/>\n' + $('#log').html() ); } };
}
var list1 = [<?php echo $str_tag_bd; ?>];
var box =
$('input#<?php echo $input_id ?>').autobox({
list: list1,
match: function(typed) {
this.typed = typed;
this.pre_match = this.text;
this.match = this.post_match = '';
if (!this.ajax && !typed || typed.length == 0) { return true; }
var match_at = this.text.search(new RegExp("\\b" + typed, "i"));
if (match_at != -1) {
this.pre_match = this.text.slice(0,match_at);
this.match = this.text.slice(match_at,match_at + typed.length);
this.post_match = this.text.slice(match_at + typed.length);
return true;
}
return false;
},
insertText: function(obj) { return obj.text },
templateText: "<li><%= pre_match %><span class='matching' ><%= match %></span><%= post_match %></li>",
prevals : [<?php echo $tags; ?>]
});
</script>
UP! ;-)
