Hi Ole Martin,

If I understand your questions correctly then you are using the http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/ksumbraco7calendar package on your project and now you want to display the start date value.

Did you see the pdf with the documentation if not take a look here /FileDownload?id=12113, there is an example on how to show the start date.

Hope this helps,

/Dennis

No, I'll try to reformulate the question.

I am making a custom propery editor, which stores its value as JSON.

Using the new List view in Umbraco 7.2.1 it's possible to add custom columns to the list view.

I am wondering if it's possible in a custom property editor (e.g. in the package.manifest) to define a value to show if the data type is viewed in the list view as a custom column.

Any solution to this issue so far?

No, I haven't found any solution to this yet. On the old download-page I read that in version 7.3 it sould be possible to sort by custom properties. (Ref.: http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-6003) So I will wait until that release to see whats possible. An alternative for me is to save one JSON-attribute in an other property type and sort by that.

That's sorting by the property - but nothing about fetching a property from a json-blob?

That's right. But it's one step in the right direction... So I will wait and see what possibilities that will bring. Maybe an event to hook into or something.

Did you post anything on issue.umbraco.org for this? I can do that otherwise?

No, I didn't. If you do, please post the url/issueno here, so I can follow it.

Please add info and vote =D

Hey!

I have the same problem like you guys but it seems that the solution for this isn't here. I searched in the URL Markus posted to but no luck..

I use the Umbraco Gmaps plugin which has some great solution to choose a specific place in a nice way..

I then use this method in a list view with items who has their own "google maps" property.
I then wanted to sort all the items by address and city in the list view, see the screenshot down below:

Here I have the google maps data property in the list view, it's returning everything in a JSON string..

I don't know how to the extract address and city.. Any idea? Did you find a way? I know this post is like 6 years old, but I'll give it a try! :D

Best regards,

Simon

Hi, What I did was to create another property on the document type, eg. a label. Then I wrote some code that extracted the value I wanted to show in the listview and saved it to that label. Here is some sample-code. I haven't tested this exact code, and you will have to edit it to suit your needs and aliases.

public class CustomEventHandler : ApplicationEventHandler
{
    protected override void ApplicationStarted(UmbracoApplicationBase umbracoApplication, ApplicationContext applicationContext)
    {
        ContentService.Saving += ContentService_Saving;
    }

void ContentService_Saving(IContentService sender, Umbraco.Core.Events.SaveEventArgs<IContent> e)
{
    if (UmbracoContext.Current == null) return;
    foreach (var node in e.SavedEntities)
    {
        try
        {
            if (node.DocumentTypeAlias == "YourDocumentType"))
            {
                var value = ""; //Extract the address here...
                node.SetValue("LabelField", value);
                sender.Save(node, currentUser?.Id ?? 0, false);

            }
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            LogHelper.Error<CustomEventHandler>("Could not save events for node.", ex);
        }
    }
}

}

is working on a reply...
