Support

Hi.

First off, thanks for this... works perfectly so far.

I'm simply trying to create my own 'Guided Tour', so I can have someone else set up events. I have it started, but can't seem to figure out the Target Handlers very well. I have it working properly for the 'Folder' field, but I'm not sure now how I figured it out.

The working Target syntax is: input#foldertype-0-foldername.form-control

 I tried to attach a screenshot of the working config. It didn't upload and cannot be added during an edit...

Any idea how to get the other form fields to behave properly? I'm certain I'm overlooking something (although I've tried quite a few things)...

I know this is more of a problem with the 'Guided Tours' feature as opposed to an issue with your product, but I figure I'd ask you for your thoughts. Definitely not one of Joomla's more elegant solutions but I do like the feature...

Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hey Sven...

I'm just beginning to work with it myself. I've tried a few other things using the dev tools to kind of pick through the code.

Another one I found was:
input.form-control lc_jform_description input-xlarge

From the syntax in the screenshot it would would seem to be:
input#form-control lc_jform_description input-xlarge

However, neither one work like the "Folder" field in the 'Create a Step' tutorial on Guided Tours.

Like I said, I don't see this as the best workflow for the feature but it will make teaching someone how to work with the website easier.

Thanks for taking a look!

Funny... I had such an easy time setting up the component I never even thought of watching the video that comes on the overview page, lol... I'm getting pulled away from this for a minute, but will check it out when I get back. Any others would also be appreciated, thanks!

Hey... Sorry for the late reply.

The videos are helpful, thanks for passing that along.

The guided tours is an awesome feature, except for it's ui/ux experience with setting up the steps that isolate an individual fields for input. I got most of them on the Create Event page, except for the description text area and the categories and tags dropdowns. I'll make a list of the code handlers for you if it makes it easier for you to figure out.

I was able to put one of your videos in the one I'm working on. See attached...

Seems there are only 2 database tables running that whole guided tours lot...

You set up some guided tours with your videos embedded in them. Then you could package the #_guidedtours and #_guidedtour_steps tables in sql. Add them to your component install package. Maybe that'll give your vids a bit more visibility.

Thanks for your help. TTYS

Like I said, not the easiest to set-up. Also, some of the text fields won't have a 'hard stop' in the tutorial. Seems it has something to do with the language file, but that's above my pay grade, lol. I'd assume some of these work in other forms as well... so, here's the handlers for the Create Event Page:

New Button: .lc_jform_description
New Folder: input#foldertype-0-foldername.form-control
Title: .lc_jform_description
Password: input#jform_password.form-control
Password Hint: .lc_jform_passwordhint
Description: #jform_texten_GB,#jform_texten_GB_ifr
Publish Event: input#jform_published1.switcher
Event Date: #jform_date
Event Category: joomla-field-fancy-select .choices[data-type=select-one]
Event Tags: joomla-field-fancy-select .choices[data-type=select-multiple]
Save Button: #toolbar-save

I haven't looked into the sql at all, but I'd presume an update query or two would work to add your tutorial to the 'Tours' list. Let me know how you get along, if you try it.

Thanks for the help, most appreciated...
