Yes/No element displaying as an icon in list?

[emcguire]

Hi!

I have a Yes/No element in my form. I have it set to Show in List. however, in the list, for some reason, it shows up as an icon no matter what the selection is. I have attached a screenshot.

I tried setting the element to "Single Yes" - no change. and "replace with Icons" is set to NO in the list options.

Should I just convert this to a standard radiobutton? Not sure why its doing that. I do like the styling of the Yes/No element.

So I just checked the database. there is no value being stored. on either selection. its just [""]

Fabrik is displaying checkmark/delete icons in list view (it depends on your Joomla template which icon is rendered then).
You can override this behaviour
http://fabrikar.com/forums/index.php?wiki/jlayouts/
(copy
plugins\fabrik_element\yesno\layouts/fabrik_element_yesno_list.php to
components/com_fabrik/views/list/tmpl/your-template/layouts/fabrik_element_yesno_list.php
and modify)

Or if you need to change the behavior for all lists, not just one template, copy it to ...

./templates/<your site template>/html/layouts/com_fabrik/fabrik_element_yes_no.php

It's weird that you template is showing a wineglass icon. We use the fairly standard 'checkmark' and 'remove' icon names. I'd be interested in seeing the affected page on your site, so I can work out why it is rendering one of those as a wineglass! And we'll need to figure out what icon you need in order to override it.

Thanks Guys,

I tried all that above and nothing worked. what I ended up doing that worked was I just changed the value of the icon file/class on the fabrik_element_yesno_list.php and fabrik_element_yesno_details.php files

if ($data == '1') :
    $icon = $j3 && $format != 'pdf' ? 'check.png' : '1.png';
    $properties['alt'] = FText::_('JYES');

    echo FabrikHelperHTML::image($icon, 'list', $tmpl, $properties, false, $opts);
else :
    $icon = $j3 && $format != 'pdf' ? 'remove-circle.png' : '0.png';
    $properties['alt'] = FText::_('JNO');

wierd. not sure how/why that worked but it did. instead of checkmark, I set it to "check" and instead of delete or whatever it was(can't remember what it was originally), I changed it to "remove-circle". I came to that conclusion by looking at the inspector and seeing what css file it was getting the icon class from and went to that css file (the template bootstrap-default.css) and picked out the 2 icon classes that I wanted to display. now it looks like the screenshot. whatever was the default values in those files - those icons didnt exist in my css, so it must have just put the wine glass there for some reason. If you still want to see the page, I can create a temp cred for you(it is not public facing)

I did the same thing on the "details" element. The template I'm using is Shape5 Vertex.

Thanks for the help again fellas.

Ah hah, the yesno element never got updated to use the generic getLayout() that adds those override paths.

Fixing that now.

OK, fixed as of this commit:

https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/commit/a4a64951c6e428d685ac671cbc34ad2987b95e2b

For now, you can just leave your edits to the default layouts. but next time you upgrade, those will stop working, and you'll need to copy the new files (now with - instead of _ in the names) to one of the locations mentioned previously, and re-edit them.
