Hi,
Just testing the Collecting module v1.12.2 to compare to Contribute, and I cannot get the Custom Vocab option to work. I add a Property prompt for a Property that uses a CustomVocab and choose CustomVocab for the Input Type, but the Custom Vocab dropdown doesn’t give me any options to choose from (see below). I do have CustomVocabs setup which work fine in the Item edit form and in Contribute.
Before I report as a bug, is there something I’m missing or anyone else can confirm?
Thanks!
John.
Collecting only recognizes custom vocabularies that are “Terms”. Are your missing vocabularies “URIs” and/or “Items”?
Ah, that’s exactly it, we use Items. Any chance that might change sometime, or is it technically unfeasible? I’ll have to think about switching to Terms instead.
Thanks!
John.
The change that will make it possible is currently in testing. Once it is tested and documented, there will be a new release of Collecting.
Amazing, thanks Jim! I installed that on the site I’m testing and it does the job.
Only issues I’m seeing are related to our use of @Daniel_KM Thesaurus module for SKOS vocabs with hierarchy. He patches in his own version of CustomVocabSelect to customise the appearance in Edit Item to a) filter out the ConceptScheme items, b) correctly sort OrderedCollections, and c) Display the hierarchy (as below). Collecting uses PromptSelect instead so this doesn’t work here, I’m hoping he’ll be able to patch something to do the same here?
Thanks!
John.
Oh, the other thing I was going to ask about was multiple value selection, any plans to support that, either as a select or as tickboxes?
Thanks!
Multiple value selection is a good idea. I’ve added an issue to that effect, but I don’t know when we’ll get to it.
