Title: Add variables for magazines and journals, as ISSN and number of publication
Post by: angela92 on 15 June 2016, 12:29:35
I would love to use this extension, is does amazing things with book management, but I also have a specific request to add some parameters for magazines and periodical journals, for example ISSN Number, number of pubblication, or other parameters that can come as future requests. Is not a problem for me to change the code for that purpose, I just need a hint in the right direction, or if this is an existing feature that I could not find, it would be greatly appreciated if you showed me where to find it.
Thank you in advance

Hi angela92,
could you tell me what are all fields you need to publish a magazine?

Well, for our needs, we need some funcionalities, such as to add another type (publication), which will have a fixed number of books in it. And if the number of books inserted in this publication is reached, then the user can no longer add books. I have already followed the component logic to create an ISSN field,but  i am having problems with an entire publication, since it means to create models, components and views which should also be connected to the other part of the component

I will add the fields "ISSN" and "Number of publication" without check by number of book inserted.

Thank you, that would be great! :) So, should I wait for an update for it? Or will you help me with the code?
