Products> Field Definitions> Dropdown> options from script

Post by adriangreen »

Not sure whether this is a feature request or a question, however, I need for my client to easily choose a Gallery to use with each product.

I have a similar system in use with the Advanced Content module where a dropdown is filled in with the directory names for each gallery and the client may they may choose one for a use in a page. (The directory names are from the filesystem.) The options for the dropdown are passed in by a smarty plugin.

I wish to employ a similar system so the client may add/edit a product and select the gallery from a dropdown.

Yes, I could just provide a text field, but I want a dropdown with options generated using either plugins/tags or UDTs.

@Calguy: the dropdown/radio field types in all your excellent modules (eg Calguys Content Utilities) would benefit from this ability to use script to provide the options - if it does not exist already? :)

Anyway, might there a way to achieve programmatic options in fields with Products module?

(Please don't change the topic in your reply - this is not an invitation to suggest I not use galleries)
