Hello,
I want to add a new custom field but it has to be written in Greek!
But greek characters aren’t supported because only ??? appear after saving.
How can I add support for greek characters?
Unfortunately there is no way to use not-latin symbols in custom field name for now.
Hi!
I wonder how much effort would it take for me to implement Custom Fields with UTF8 support in the Joomla Scheduler component. I’m not a JavaScript expert, but couldn’t the Custom Field description be converted to unicode-escape-sequence right after the input in the editDsc() method in codebase/iframe/custom_fields.html and then back to normal at the event creation window? Am I missing something, cause this would seem not too much effort.
Kind regards,
Andy
Hi!
Ok, I solved it the “super professional” way. I just added some string comparison to the dhtmlxscheduler.js (in the components/com_scheduler/codebase folder). So that when the html code for the custom fields is generated, I check the field name for my custom field names, and on each match I set the variable to the according string with utf8 special characters. The variable is called “this.locale.labels[“section_”+sns[i].name]”. If you have custom field with “select list” type, then there is another place to add similar comparison - the variable you are looking for is “sns.options[i].label”.
Well ofcourse this is bad hack, but it’s easy and for none changeing custom fields this is ok for me.
Hope this helps.
