Hello Everyone
I want to know if it’s possible to have form in each tag where at the top of the topic I have the needed details of a client let’s say as tag.
This form could be added in more than one topic and shows the clients details let’s say
without having to create a category since we create categories on another criteria
or any other solutions which will help me to automatically show a client details in more than one topic and category?
I don’t think there’s an existing functionality for this. You’d likely have to use a plugin.
However, I could be mistaken. Could you elaborate further on this? Thanks.
which plugin could help me build this workflow?
Hi there, could you elaborate further on your original question? I might be misunderstanding it.
I think you might have to do something custom, but it’s hard to say for sure without more details.
Is what you’re looking for a form in the tooic post, and adds tags to the topic based on the form’s content? Because then you might be able to get away with a Theme Component instead.
If I’m reading your question correctly, it sounds like you use a tag for each client, and you want an extended client description to show up when viewing any topic having that tag.
It’s not a form really, but the Tag Banners component, as seen here on Meta, might get you halfway there:
With this component installed, you can add a text description for each tag that will appear in a banner shown when the tag itself is selected. The text field takes HTML and can be styled with custom CSS so you could do quite a bit with it, but here’s a very plain example where I’m editing a tag:
The challenge would be to alter this component so that it shows up not only on the tag page, but on each topic using that tag. I don’t know how much work that might be, but a more experienced coder (like Nate…) might have some idea.
Thanks @toddz that helped a lot that’s what I need
well "@NateDhaliwal the tag banner will help me a lot but now my question is:
How to make it appear in the topic itself where when I add the tag the details appear on the top of the topic
Ok, since I understood your question I’ll edit the title of this topic so maybe some more people will take a look.
I imagine it would require forking the component to create a new version, figuring out what triggers the banner to appear on the tag page, and changing that so it’s also triggered when tagged topics are viewed.
You could get lucky and someone will think that sounds like fun – otherwise you might need to figure out a project budget and post a request in the Marketplace.
I’m seeing if this is possible, experimenting with this on a fork. No promises, though!
