CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi. I'm running CMS Made Simple 2.1.6. PHP version is 5.5.38 I am running CompanyDirectory module v1.23.3 / CGExtension v1.53.17 / CGSimpleSmarty v2.1.6 / CGSmartImage v1.21.5 / JQueryTools v1.3.9

I am trying to make use of the CompanyDirectory optional parameter name="" as discussed in the module help:

(optional) name="" - Applicable only to the default (summary) action. this parameter allows filtering companies by their name. Wildcard characters are allowed. i.e: name="a*". Additionally, regular expressions can be specified by prefixing the value with ::. i.e: name="::[0-9].*"

I am able to make name="a*" work but I am unable to make use of regular expression such as name="::[a-b].*" to signify company names starting with "a" or "b".

Could you point me to the right direction as to how the regular expression is used in this parameter. Thanks very much.

There is a new release available in the Forge

Hi Rolf. Thanks very much for the regex filter bug fix in the most recent release.

Some questions from a newbie, though, before I could test it. My CMS module manager admin panel is still showing version 1.23.3 and not the new version 1.23.4 How do I upgrade the CompanyDirectory module without affecting the data that is already in the module? I have already exported the data to csv just in case something goes wrong. I do not know if that is enough. Thanks for any input.

It takes a while for the new release appears in the module manager, max. 24 hours.
