Upgrading from V1 to V2 of ARI Smart Content 9 Years, 6 Months ago Karma: 0

I'm currently using V1 of ARI Smart Content to display the contents of several .csv files on my site. Now I would like to use some of the features (like the media gallery) in V2. Since V1 must be uninstalled in order to install V2, how do I covert my existing ARI Smart Content displays into V2 displays? For example, here/below is the ART Content the I'm now using for one .csv file. I've set up the .csv file, but I can't figure out how to get the data formatted the same, especially how to use the substr Javascript function in conjunction with the combining multiple .csv data columns into a single display column.

Code:

{arijdatatable bPaginate="false" sPaginationType="full_numbers" iDisplayLength="25" bAutoWidth="true"}

   {aricsvtable file="/data/xml/officers_WEST.csv" sortBy="role" sortDir="asc"}

      {aricsvtablecolumns}



       {aricsvtablecolumn id="role" alias="Role / Organ / Club" pos="1" width="20%"}

               {coltemplate}<strong>

               <script>var role = '{$role}'.substr(3); document.write(role);</script>

               </strong><br>{$organization} 

              {/coltemplate}

       {/aricsvtablecolumn}



        {aricsvtablecolumn id="icon" alias="Icon" pos="2" width="10%"}

            {coltemplate}<IMG SRC="/images/galleries/officers/{$icon}" ALT="{$icon}" width="80" >{/coltemplate}

        {/aricsvtablecolumn}



        {aricsvtablecolumn id="clubName" alias="Name / Contact Info" pos="3"}

           {coltemplate}<strong>{$name}</strong><br>

             {$address}, {$city}, {$state} {$zipcode}<br>

             {$contactPhone} {$contactEmail}

           {/coltemplate}

         {/aricsvtablecolumn}

Hello,

"Columns settings -> Format" parameter on settings page for CSV file. Documentation is available here. For example set "Columns settings -> ID" parameter to role value, "Columns settings -> Alias" parameter to the following value:

Role / Organ / Club

and "Columns settings -> Format" parameter to the following value:

<strong><script>var role = '{$value}'.substr(3); document.write(role);</script></strong><br />{$columns:organization}

ARI Soft

Thank you for the quick response. I've installed V2 on my local development system and set up a .csv file using your instructions/code, but it's not working. When I save from the CSV File Edit page, I get the following code being displayed at the top of the page (right below the Joomla menu, above the 'CSV File: edit' banner.

Code:

{$columns:organization}\n"}]); }); var cachecleaner_base = '/CSDweb/administrator'; var cachecleaner_root = 'http://localhost/CSDweb/'; var cachecleaner_msg_clean = 'Cleaning cache'; var cachecleaner_msg_inactive = 'The Cache Cleaner system plugin is not enabled! Enable?'; var cachecleaner_msg_failure = 'Cache could not be cleaned'; jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery('.hasTooltip').tooltip({"html": true,"container": "body"}); });

There isn't anything in the 'Columns settings'. The strings/code, included below that you provided, and I entered is gone.

Code:

"Columns settings -> ID" parameter to role value, "Columns settings -> Alias" parameter to the following value:



 Role / Organ / Club



 and "Columns settings -> Format" parameter to the following value:



 <strong><script>var role = '{$value}'.substr(3); document.write(role);</script></strong><br />{$columns:organization}

Download and upgrade the component and use the following code in "Format" field instead of <script> tags:

Code:



<strong>{$value|substr:3}</strong><br />{$columns:organization}

Thank you. I've installed Ver 2.1.2 and it's better, but I'm still not there yet. With

Code:

<strong>{$value|substr:3}</strong><br />{$columns:organization}

in the format column, I'm getting 'rong>' being displayed on the front-end before the combined value for the column.

Also, what is the syntax for combining the path with a file name for an IMG SRC? In one of my columns, I have the file name for an icon image, but for it to be displayed, I need to include the path to the file, e.g.

Code:

<img src="/images/galleries/officers/{$value}" />

which isn't working. Instead of getting the image displayed, I get

Code:

" />

displayed. Looking at the source code on the front-end, I see

Code:

<img src="/images/galleries/officers/" "<img="" "noicon.jpg"="">

Download and upgrade the extension to v. 2.1.4. It should resolve the problem. Regards, ARI Soft
