Title: Sub-sub categories and Excel import
Post by: vinve on 20 October 2011, 12:03:10
Hello,

I should find say, its a good effort and work by you to create this module for joomla. Good work.

I have couple of questions and can you please clarify them:

1) Is it possible for me to create categories->sub-categories->sub-sub categories and add listing in the sub-sub categories? (I heard using Joomla 1.7 its possible)

2) Secondly, if i want to import an Excel file, is it possible to have my own field names. For example - Book number, Book name, author, category, language, download link etc..
And also is it also possible to import thumbnail pictures as well.

Thanks

regards
/ Vive

Hello vinve,
1) you can create categories, sub-categories and sub-sub-categories, ecc...
2) you can import a .csv file in to selected category.
File features: fields terminated by colon ( ; ), fields enclosed by double quotes ( " " ).
Fields list: title, subtitle, alias, id editor, price, pag, user id,  user alias, description, image name, file name, year, id location, id library, vote, numvote, hits, published, qty, isbn, approved, userid, url, url label, date insert, catalog, checked_out, checked_out_time, access, metakey, metadesc, note, editedby, catid, authors. The authors field is an authors list separated by semicolon.
Import does not include the images and linked files, but you can copy the images to same folders that you have set on Abook configuration.
