3.1.4

New Feature : Search Plugin

Introduction of the search plugin for Joomla.
At install, the plugin will automatically be installed in the 'search' plugin folder and will be enabled automatically.
You can now use the Joomla search module to find your component datas.

Implementation

In the component config, simply define "Include Search Plugin" to "Yes"

Only the tables with a front-end search filter will be considered as "searchable".

Improved ORM

Search: default logic : ‘OR'
Select: Use '.' for tableless based namespace
SQL concat() function

Improved model

LIST : getRoute() for getting item URL
Debug state for dumping the query : 'debug.query'

Fixes

Logout problem in sandbox fixed

I jumped and started to work on a demo component... but 2 days later this demo component became the real component. I just showed today the end result to my customer and he turned to me and said... "this is more than I expected"... All of this is because Cook did cut about 70% of my work and provided me more ways to improve the usability of the component. The end result was 17 tables all related between than to generate a full dashboard for the travel agents. Thanks for Cook developers for such great tool. This component would not be possible to be done at short time with all the features in it
