term_fields 6.x-2.x-dev

Integration of the new code, for the 2.x DEV release. The module has been fully rewrited.

New features:

• Other modules may create their own fields, using the exposed hooks. See the module code that is hardly commented (Defgroup Term fields hoohs).
• Each field may appears in various vocabularies.
• All existing field types have been modified and optimized, with new options, like:
  • Textarea widget that may use text processing (input filters), define max length or number of cols/rows...
  • Textfield widget that may define max length or size
  • Numeric type has now 2 widgets: select (interger only) and textfield, that handles decimal numbers with related options and intergers.
  • List type, that may be used as radios buttons or select input.
  • Choice type, mostly created for compatibility with the old 'checkbox' type. It is almost a field for boolean values.
  • Date type, which relies on the date_api module and so has a lot of new features.
  • File type, that exposes two widgets: standard file and image
• It is now possible to implement a field type with multiple values (not currently used though).

Todo:

• Tests, tests and tests again, even if a lot of tests were already performed
• Finalize and test Feeds module integration
• Add some advanced options for the image widget, like imagecache preset...

Important

The 2.x DEV version should not be used on a production environment. Before upgrading, please backup your data!
