How to use Category Selection from Add Web Content?

[12年前 に Christian Schulze によって更新されました。]

Hello,
I want to use the Selection of Categories which I see in the Create New Web Content view. All I found was this in edit_view.jsp inside portal-web/docroot/html/portlet/journal :

<aui:input classPK="<%= classPK %>" name="categories" type="assetCategories" />

But that didn't work, because I miss some js-Code or Scripplet to generate the Tree or so.

How can't I get a Category-Tree and the need js-Dialog to select it?

regards
Chris

Hi Christian,

That is very interesting !!!

If you want to use that in custom portlet then you can directly use <liferay-ui:asset-categories-selector> tag in custom portlet

<aui:input classPK="<%= classPK %>" name="categories" type="assetCategories" />

This will go in to the Page.jsp inside /portal-web/docroot/html/taglib/aui/input/page.jsp and that will check for type assetCategories

    <c:when test="<%= (model != null) &amp;&amp; type.equals(&quot;assetCategories&quot;) %>">
		<liferay-ui:asset-categories-selector className="<%= model.getName() %>" classPK="<%= _getClassPK(bean, classPK) %>" contentCallback="<%= portletResponse.getNamespace() + &quot;getSuggestionsContent&quot; %>" />
	</c:when>

Take a look at logic of asset-categories-selector also /portal-web/docroot/html/taglib/ui/asset_categories_selector/page.jsp,

The tag <liferay-ui:asset-categories-selector> uses
AssetCategoryServiceUtil.getCategories(className, classPK) to get the list of categories and populates the curCategoryIds from this list.

You can refer the same in my blog

See Asset Framework also.

Thanks, thats very helpfull.

But one question remain, it is possible to set the Focus to one AssetVocabulary? In this example I see all Vocabularys.

Thanks for reply,

Thats right, you can focus on asset-vocabulary.

<liferay-ui:asset-categories-selector curCategoryIds="<%= Validator.isNull(vManag) ? &quot;&quot; : categoryIds %>" />

Here,
categoryIds - set category Ids for which you want set Focus for particular items if its empty then it will not focus any items

For that Particular content you may be storing CategoryIds in Database, so you need to fetch all Ids for that particular content and set it here

Tell me if you can face any other Issues

Mayur

I think we speak about different things.

In your blog I see only that you select the currentCategoryIds with this.
But I need to Focus on an exact AssetVocabulary in the Select-Dialog, so that there are only the AssetCategory under this exact AssetVocabulary.

I'm not sure about that,I cant find any other attributes which focus AssetVocabulary,
May be you need to do some coding and you need to filter out curCategoryIds for that particular AssetVocabulary and pass it.

If you have any other idea then you can share that will be great !!!
