Comment to 'Question about the ADS app'
  • Hi @LeonidS

    Thanks for response.

    In my case I am going to use the app only to publish job opportunities. Therefore I will have to accept that the publication consists of 2 steps. 😔

    1) Would I then have to delete the other categories? Because I don't want a user to be able to select other categories.

    2) How does the form change according to the selected category? where is this configured or customized?

    3) Regarding the Job module in development (https://github.com/unacms/una/issues/4726), could we know what its features would be?

    Thank you so much.

    • Hi @LeonidS

      I really do not understand. 

      Anyone can make a mistake when publishing an ad when selecting the category and they should be able to modify it, because otherwise the person is obliged to delete the ad and republish it, which I think is nonsense.

      That said, at the risk of being wrong because I am no expert, I believe that the module does not work correctly.

      Is there an approximate date for the launch of the "Jobs" module?

      When you say "you may add the separate field for the subcategories and enable it in the Edit form too." I understand that you mean not using the categories used by the "Ads" module and adding my own category field. However, in that case I think I would lose the classification of the ads by categories/subcategories that the module offers.

      I appreciate your usual kindness in responding.

      Regards.

        Yes, I mentioned reasons about, but in your case with 1 big category this issue looks more uncomfortable than usual situations.

        I guess it will be released with UNA 14 stable.

        I understand that you mean not using the categories used by the "Ads" module and adding my own category field.

        Yes, in your case with 1 main category (Jobs) it's better to have own subcategories.

        I think I would lose the classification of the ads by categories/subcategories that the module offers.

        You may try to use this variant for subcategories to keep main features:

          Thank you again for the response and patience.

          "Yes, I mentioned reasons about, but in your case with 1 big category this issue looks more uncomfortable than usual situations."

          I want to clarify that the same problem (the category cannot be modified) occurs when using the Ads module for any type of ad. That's why I think it's a module problem.

          "I guess it will be released with UNA 14 stable."

          Any approximate release date for UNA 14?

          Great! thank you so much.
