Hi everyone,
I use the module LISE to present the offer travel agent. I would like to add the "day after day" section, where the information will be presented in tabs. Is it possible to give backend user chance to create additional fields in the amount it needs - for each item independently?

For example item "LAOS" will have 10 tabs, and item "Vietnam" 6 tabs, etc.
For now, I'm using in the wysiwyg editor udt:

Code: Select all

{tab_title}day 1{tab_title_end}
{tab_desc_start}description of day1 {tab_desc_end}
{tab_title}day 2{tab_title_end}
{tab_desc_start}description of day 2{tab_desc_end}
...

It's unclear and unfriendly for backend-user when you have e.g 20 days.
Much better is give the option "add another day" in every newly added day, which creates two separate input fields - for a name and description.
Any ideas?

No it has not as far as I know. At least nog standard functionality.

You might be able to create a second LISE instance/module and interconnect those. But I doubt that will be more user-friendly.

As the name indicates (as well as that of it's predecessors) the module is meant to create lists of identical items, so having exactly the same typology of custom fields for each item per list is a requirement and, of course, a limitation. There are no plans to alter this at this point neither at foreseeable future. The only thing that is on the roadmap is the possibility to use, at least some of the custom fields for additional per instance global settings but it won't help with your issue, and there is no time frame set for this feature yet. Sorry.

Thank you for your answer.
this is what I was afraid...
I thought it could be done as in FormBuilder module - when adding new fields email recipients.
Or in module Smart Image Toolkit when you adding alias automatically creates the next row with fileds.

Anyway, thank you for your help!

You can always open a Feature Request on LISE's project page on the Forge, explaining with as much detail as possible what you would need; I have been adding requested features every now and then given my own availability to work on them (free time mostly) and how reasonable a request may be, given the goals of the module.
Additionally, you can also sponsor a feature, although it would still be subject to the module's goals.
Reasonable or logical features tend to be added as possible.
