Display image on Items related by tag.

Category: English K2 Community

Hi,

 

Is there a way to display image with articles by tag?

 

I have tryed this:

 

<?php if(!empty($this->item->image)): ?>              <div class="related-img">             <a href="<?php echo $item->link ?>" title="<?php echo JText::_('for more information on '); ?><?php echo $item->title; ?><?php echo JText::_('click here'); ?>">                  <img src="<?php echo JURI::root().'media/k2/items/cashe/'.md5("Image".$item->id).'_XS.png'; ?>" alt="<?php echo JText::_('Find out more about '); ?> <?php echo $item->title; ?>"  />              </a>          </div><?php endif; ?>




But it's not seem to work. Any advice please?

Darrell,

 

I am by no means a programmer, so I could not begin to tell your programmer where to look... If he is not familiar with Joomla and or K2, then trying to get him to integrate his code into theirs may not be a "simple" task.  That said I would have to recommend that he look into the API code for for K2, as it should provide a way for him to design a K2 plugin that would allow the flash card entries to actually be K2 items/articles.  If he can do that then it would just be a matter of your users tagging them when they create them... The biggest issue I see with using K2 in this manner, is going to be the number of flash cards that can be created from one article entry, may be limited to just one card... he may be able to use html/css code to design around that limitation, but in doing so, multiple flash cards would all be tagged the same thing, instead of having a separate tag for each card.

The above link is to an example page for making a quick k2 "plugin" it would be the place I would recommend that your programmer start.

Thank you Sam for the efforts and time for helping me understand. I completely understand what you are stating now. This is all new, but I am learning a lot. 

I am not using a Joomla plugin to for users to input data in the flashcard application. I don't know how the data is getting stored in the flashcard application. An application developer is programming the flashcard application and I am contacting him now to determine how users are inputting data in the flashcard. I will inform you once I get comments back from him.

 

Do I need to ask the developer how user data is stored in the database? Is there a certain place in the database where K2 pulls information related to the associated tag? If so, I need inform the developer of this location.

 

Thanks for your advice and comments and time.

Darell I understand what you want to do... However; as I stated before K2 is a replacement CMS (Content Management System) for Joomla... So the Tag cloud that it creates is for the articles stored within the tables that it uses in the Joomla Database.  If your Form/Form Plugin can input information into those tables then sure K2 can generate Tag clouds for them; however, if your Form/Form Plugin can not store its information in the K2 items tables, then I don't see how K2 is going to make a Tag cloud for you...  

Now in an attempt to help you, I will once again ask...

How are your user inputing the information for the flash cards?

 

If you can not provide a clear, and detailed explanation of what programs, code, plugins, or CMS that you are using for the above question then I believe we have provided you all the information possible for your question given the information you have provided to this point.


Darrell Washington said:

Thank you Sam for the efforts.

 

What I want do is this:

1. Use K2 to create a Tag Cloud. The Tag clouds will have tags like Math, English, Science, etc.. I know K2 can do this easily. So no problem here.

 

2. For example, if Math is clicked in the Tag Cloud, a results page return with all the flashcards (listed by title of flashcards) registered users created. These flashcards are created in the front end. An example is shown here:http://quizlet.com/  After Algebra is clicked in the category module here is the results:http://quizlet.com/subject/algebra/ It shows the title of the cards created by users with the tag Algebra. Just pretend Algrebra was in the K2 Tag Cloud and was clicked on. Can K2 return something like this or just article created?

 

I want to know if K2 can do something similary. Can i modify K2 to pull this from the Joomla MySQL database?

 

Thank you. I really need to know this so I can decide if I need to hire someone or if K2 can do this for me

Darell,

 

Perhaps you should tell us how your users are inputing data...  Although I understood that your users were inputing information from the front end, it was my understanding that they were using K2 to input their articles (K2 term "item")  K2 is a replacement content management system... i.e. the purpose of it is to replace the Sections/Categories/Articles that Joomla uses by default.  So when you ask is K2 can make a "tag cloud" the answer is yes, it can make a tag cloud for the articles created with in it.  If you are asking if K2 can make a tag cloud for some "Form" that you hand coded, or programed with a "Form" plugin for Joomla, the answer is probably no, unless you, the maker of the form, or the users/company responsible for the Joomla "Form" plugin you are using have made, or intend to make a plugin for the form/form plugin designed to work with the way that K2 manages items/articles.

 

Again K2 is a replacement content manager for Joomla... So I'm not sure that it is what you are looking for based on your last post.Darrell Washington said:

Thanks for your response Sam.

 

I am not using articles. I am using data entered by users on the front end. I will not create article from the backend. User will enter data (question and answers in a form) and then an app will create a flashcards. I want to know if K2 can pull this data if the associated tag (from the data) is clicked on in a K2 module. Similar to the example i gave in my 1st post.

Darell,

 

K2 supports the "tagging" of articles, by authors, and I believe they can be tagged by visitors too.  Once articles are tagged you can create a Tag Cloud on your site.  This is the block of various Tags from your site, and I believe the size of the text of the tag is determined by the number of items with that tag, or the amount of traffic that tag is receiving.  K2 includes the TAG cloud module, hidden inside of the K2 Tools module.  So just create a new K2 Tools module and configure the parameters in it to create your tag cloud.

Joomla Module Positions and K2

Category: English K2 Community

Hi,

I am new to K2, and I must be completely missing something, but I cannot seem to find out how to make the "right" module position show up on ALL K2 component pages (articles, categories, tags... everything).

The Joomla template I am using is a Joomlart Quickstart with K2 included.

With one of the demo articles, I simply edited it for my first article, and all the "right" position modules are working correctly.

However, I created a new article, and none of the "right" module positions are showing up, and I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.

 

Edited demo article: travis.pflanz.me/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=7:travispflanzme&Itemid=67

 

New article: travis.pflanz.me/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=8:2011-oscars-predictions-and-picks

 

Let me know how big of an an idiot I am... Thanks!

Any help with this? Im still slighted confused. THanksDarrell Washington said:
Thank you so much for responding. My website allows registered users to create their own flashcards and save the data. Unregistered can click on a subject (say Math) in the Category module in hopes of seeing all the results of other users that have created cards related to Math. Quizlet.com is a perfect example of what I am trying to get help with. If you go to that page. Click on math, you see the results of users that created flashcards related to the tag Math. I want something similar.

 

Can K2 help me with this? If so, can you point me in the right direction.

 

I just dont know how to do this. I want to know if K2 can help with this. Or is there Joomla MySQL work required to program.

 

Thank you so much

Simple Image Gallery PRO.... doesn't work!!

Category: Simple Image Gallery PRO

The documentation correctly says that the images of your gallery should be uploaded in a folder under images/stories, when you use the {gallery}{/gallery} tags in your text. This could be either in a joomla content item or in a K2 item. If you choose, however, to use the K2 image gallery and upload a zip file with your gallery images, then the data will be uploaded to media/k2/galleries. All other parameters are used as defined in the plugin's parameters.

Getting k2 modules to display on all K2 related pages

Category: English K2 Community

Ive discussed this with SH404 and seems to be a problem with menu item id'

 

If a menu is created and the K2 module assigned to that menu item, the pages show up OK and modules stay in place.

 

My problem is that If I click on a users blog from a module or a K2 Item tag from the K2 modules these open up in a page and none of the K2 modules show up.

 

Ive tested and if I create a menu item for a user blog or tag, assign modules to these new menu items then if your speciffically click on the users blog or tag, then the modules stay in place and the page open up OK.

 

I cannot however create the other 999 user blog menu links and as many tags as would take for ever.

The Guys at SH404 think i need to request this as a feature - ask developers to add a feature were you can set the Itemid to use for tag links and for user blogs.


 

How do I make a feature request and is there any way of working round this that I haven't figured out?

REQUEST: K2 API Enhancements

Category: English K2 Community

In developing template overrides for my websites, I'm having to do a lot of PHP coding in order to get data that one might expect to be available, for example, getting the item tags and author information in the generic templates.  Below are a few addition to the api of the item object (which is currently just is stdClass in the "item" template) that would be very useful...


Tags, extrafields, and author info fully set for all views
->getExtraFieldByName('My Extra Field') returning the object or perhaps just the value
$item->extraFieldGroupName
Having the default image data set by the view, consistently at the same place in the code flow for each view (currently its different for categories, items, generic, ...) AND prior to the onK2BeforeDisplay hook
Having it be a K2ItemModel or Table with an api rather than just a stdClass. 
More event hooks for categories paralleling those for items, especially w.r.t. the admin side

In the meantime, I'll attach a static class which I use in my template overrides to make working around these shortcomings a bit easier...
