A custom field plugin for a category selection that can be used
in articles, contacts, banners and other components that use
standard Joomla categories.
- The custom field plugin allows you to specify entities (article,
contact, etc.) more than one main category.
- The standard plugin layout displays a comma-separated list of
selected additional categories.
The plugin is needed more for Joomla developers, since
Joomla itself does not allow one entity to be in several categories
at once and the plugin may be useless to an inexperienced
user.
Minimum Joomla version is 4.2.0.
Plugin Parameters
- Is Joomla core component? - If the selected
component is a Joomla core component, a drop-down list of
components will be displayed. If it is a third-party component,
then specify its name like
com_componentin the next field. - Component name (com_component) - Specify the
name of the
com_componentorcom_component.entitycomponent to select a category. - Multiple - Allow multiple categories to be selected in the field or not.
