Basically a multiple version of that is what I'm after.
Ideally I'd set up some prevalues in the datatype, and for each value I'd have a slider to rate it 1-10. This would be stored as xml to allow the values to be called from XSLT.
The alternative is to create some database tables, some custom editors in the backed and a .net usercontrol that will do the filtering and displaying on the front end. This is easy enough to do, but i am wondering its not the .net way and not the 'most umbraco' way of doing it.
alternative to uComponents: Xpath Checkboxlist
Hi,
I am currently using a uComponents: Xpath Checkboxlist Data Type to allow people to select a what categories are relevant to given node.
The client has now asked to upgrade this to allow each category to be rated 0-10, instead of a checkbox.
Am I missing a trick in the normal or ucomponent datatypes to do this, or do I have to build a custom datatype using the usercontrol wrapper?
I am currently using Umbraco 4.7.2. and uComponents 2.1.
Cheers,
Scott
