Need help on a simple fieldframe fieldtype
Development and Programming
Hey,
I need some help to build a really simple fieldtype that outputs a plain text cell within a matrix.
I’m most of the way there, but I’m struggling to output the “Col Name” variable in the cell along side the row count,
In my code below, I’d like to have “image_” set/replaced by the “Col Name” in the preferences for that field..
can anybody help please?
<?php
if ( ! defined('EXT')) exit('Invalid file request');
$row_count = 0;
/**
* Copee Pastee Helper Field Class
*/
class Iu_copee_helper extends Fieldframe_Fieldtype {
var $info = array(
'name' => 'Copee Pastee Helper',
'version' => '1.0.0',
'desc' => 'Outputs row count after your field name for copy/paste',
'docs_url' => '',
'versions_xml_url' => ''
);
function display_field($field_name, $field_data)
{
global $DSP, $FF;
global $row_count;
$helper = $DSP->div('box row-counter');
$helper .= "{image_".$row_count++."}";
$helper .= $DSP->div_c();
return $helper;
}
function display_cell($cell_name, $cell_data)
{
return $this->display_field($cell_name, $cell_data);
$row_count ++;
}
}
?>If you’re wondering why the heck I would build such a thing, its for assisting publishers with the LG Replace plugin by Leevi Graham.
If I right, there is no variables with coll_name.
2 solutions from me side: 1. Add field setting like “prefix_for_cell” example:
<?php
if ( ! defined('EXT')) exit('Invalid file request');
/**
* Copee Pastee Helper Field Class
*/
class Iu_copee_helper extends Fieldframe_Fieldtype {
var $info = array(
'name' => 'Copee Pastee Helper',
'version' => '1.0.0',
'desc' => 'Outputs row count after your field name for copy/paste',
'docs_url' => '',
'no_lang' => TRUE,
'versions_xml_url' => ''
);
var $row_count = 0;
var $default_field_settings_settings = array(
'label' => 'images'
);
var $default_cell_settings = array(
'label' => 'images'
);
function display_field_settings($field_settings)
{
global $DSP;
$cell2 = '<label class="itemWrapper">'
. $DSP->qdiv('defaultBold', 'Label:')
. $DSP->input_text('label',(isset($field_settings['label'])) ? $field_settings['label'] : 'image', '2', '2','input', '60px')
. '</label>';
return array('cell2' => $cell2);
}
function display_cell_settings($cell_settings)
{
global $DSP, $LANG;
$r = '<label class="itemWrapper">'
. $DSP->qdiv('defaultBold', 'Label:')
. $DSP->input_text('label',(isset($cell_settings['label'])) ? $cell_settings['label'] : 'image', '2', '2','input', '80px')
. '</label>';
return $r;
}
function display_field($field_name, $field_data, $field_settings)
{
global $DSP, $FF;
$helper = $DSP->div('box row-counter');
$helper .= '{'.$field_settings['label']."_".$this->row_count++."}";
$helper .= $DSP->div_c();
return $helper;
}
function display_cell($cell_name, $cell_data, $cell_settings)
{
return $this->display_field($cell_name, $cell_data, $cell_settings);
$this->row_count++;
}
}
?>- Create label with jQuery power. It’s more powerful, because 1 variant will formed the label in page load process. With js you can create dynamic field text for new row..
First, if you’re only interested in creating a FF Matrix celltype, you should move all your display_field code into display_cell, and remove display_field entirely.
There was in fact no easy way to get the current column name, but I think there should be. So I just made it accessible. Download the latest on GitHub, and this should work:
global $FFM;
$col_name = $FFM->col['name'];Thanks for the help guys,
Brandon, I’ve updated to the latest Fieldframe, and modified my code as per your recommendation but its now outputting an error notice:
my code:

);
function display_cell($cell_name, $cell_data)
{
global $DSP, $FF, $FFM;
$col_name = $FFM->col['name'];
global $row_count;
$this->include_js('scripts/jquery.iu_copee_helper.php');
$helper = $DSP->div('box row-counter');
$helper .= "".$col_name.$row_count++."";
$helper .= $DSP->div_c();
return $helper;
}
}

Sorry, I’m a noob… Have I done something wrong in the code?
are you sure you updated ft.ff_matrix.php?
Quite, I just uploaded again to make sure…
and when you said “the latest FieldFrame” you do mean from GitHub.com, right? Not brandon-kelly.com?
yes 😊
Download brandonkelly/bk.fieldframe.ee_addon at master -> I selected the Zip version…
was there somewhere else on that page I should get it from?…
Fyi, the error is only displaying when editing the matrix field,
attached is a screenshot of the settings, the fieldtype is doing what I wanted it to do, except for the notice…
