Hello,

How do I add custom field where data is dynamically generated?

- If this isn't currently possible I would pay for this feature!

I would like to create a custom field in EasySocial Profiles & Groups where user can select one of the JReviews listings and that would return name/link and ratings of the selected listing and show it next to EasySocial Group name.

I also use Acymailing on my site and for their Custom Fields they have an option to select database as source - not sure if something similar can be done for EasySocial to solve for my issue (screenshot attached).

Im sure many would appreciate this feature as options would be many.
Hello Petar Elez,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Is it possible provide us some screenshot which custom field you would like to add on? So we can able to check that is it possible in current system. Please advise.

Here's a bit of background on the project and hopefully an explanation of what I would need and you can help guide me...

I am building an event review / social sharing site where the goal is to provide users with ability to communicate about but also rate music Events and Performers and Venues.

I am trying to create a seamless process of creation of EasySocial Groups and JReviews with the same name and cross linking between them so users can write reviews on the JReview side but share images and discuss the venue on the EasySocial side.

- When user creates a EasySocial Group a Listing inside JReviews is created as well

A) I was thinking about having custom fields for EasySocial Profiles and Groups with Database Mapping features to allow writing of information to other components.

B) Force redirection of listing creation links in JReviews to EasySocial Group creation pages (which contains custom fields listed above that create JReviews listing at the same time ES group is created)


The other Custom Field is Auto Complete field when entering name of the EasySocial Group to suggest existing Groups to prevent duplicates.

Hello Petar,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply as the entire team is pretty occupied with meetings and developments. I believe what you really need is a custom field app that would get triggered by the event "onRegisterAfterSave" and create the listing on JReviews programmatically.

I think we are also lacking a trigger for group creation under "applications" because ideally it should be done via an application rather than a custom field.
