Event Table Edit
I downloaded the 2.1.0 aplha and it seems really impressive. The only strange thing that I found was
- when i click in the Actions column to order, the delete
popup appears while i only want to order the row
- when i insert a new row, the delete icon does not
immediately appear for this row. I need to click save
ordering for that to appear.
Anyways, overall its an excellent powerful extension.
I would suggest the following must have features:
- there should be a way to insert Foreign Key fields. for eg. a basic requirement that I had was to insert the user_id of the current logged in user in a user_id column, so as to understand which user inserted the data.
If this is provided, then it should be used to filter the data visible to the user if it is inserted by him. So that he can only modify his own inserted data. Only admin should be able to modify ALL the data.
- also it would be neat if it were possible to integrate the users with the Community builder extension and provide a tab in the profile to view the user entered data.
- it would also help to insert different foreign keys, apart from the user ID, so that when the user specifies a foreign key type, then a drop down of all the possible values appears in the field automatically.
- also a search feature can be provided to search for individual user rows and other foreign keys.
Great going guys, am sure you must have already thought of these requirements, waiting to see them soon.
Thanks a lot for a great extension once again.

Thanks for your ideas!
The best way for feature requests is to enter them on joomlacode.org.
And the big problem is, that there's no team to built this component. At the moment - at least with coding it - there's only an I. And this is much to less to have many features implemented. So I think the only way to have this features is to join the coding team....

Thanks for this out of this world component!!!
Its easy to setup and intuitive to use. Amazing work... keep it up.

Would like to report a few minor bugs/enhancement requests that I noticed in the version 2.3RC1
1) It would be nice to add the CC and BCC feature in the emails that are sent out on submit of the forms
2) The backup to excel is creating all the rows correctly, but as we go to the next row, the columns are displaced by the number of columns in the previous row
ROW1 : TITLE1 TITLE2 TITLE3
ROW2 : COL1 COL2 COL3
ROW3 : COL1 COL2 COL3
etc.
3) When I use the mambot to display the form in any HTML page, then the validations (eg. required) are not working

Apart from the above mentioned issues, the component has far surpassed my expectations and made me a greater fan of joomla.
