Hi
Do you have an example to understand what you mean?
A url would help.
Also did you notice that only in a YOOtheme template and works fluently in other templates?

Hello there,
Here is an example of what I mean - the image is attached, I can't send a URL as it is in a beta
Hi
Thanks for the feedback!
Though the image itself seem normal to me without further clarification. I would appreciate it if you give me some context along with the image.
A screenshot of the custom field values in the back - end.
How it should be versus how it is?
Also does this happen only in a YT template?

Hello again,
So here is the backend - there are 2 parts, the first I am using ACF 2.4.0 for countries (diagram 1) and it is not showing correctly in the filters.
Next, and more importantly, the main fields I have issues with are using the article field to process the queries. I have added the screenshot so you can see the settings.
I hope you can help me.
BTW - so since it is using articles field it is using articles as the options for the field. Just saying that incase that helps
So sorry, I changed the website to a Joomlart template - it is doing the same.
I am trying to send all I can to help - these are the fields types that are not showing properly - they are generated from regularlabs I believe.
Hi
The Article Field from regular labs is a 3rd party custom field plugin.
Probably it uses it's own way to store and display the custom field values.
So far we have not tested neither integrated our extension with that 3rd party plugin.
If you are interested, i can check if and how such an integration can be done, but possibly will have an extra cost.

Hello,
What type of extra cost are we talking of good sir - I will decide based on that
Hi
We can add integration for the Article Field from regular labs.
The cost is 80 EUR
Please let me know if you would like to proceed.

Hello there,
Has any progress been made on this issue on your subsequent updates? Either way please let me know as it is making the website not search correctly, so I would like this fixed no matter what.
Hi
There will be a new release these days, that will allow 3rd party plugins to format the filter labels (i.e. what you see).
Tassos is already aware of that. I also sent him a code snippet of how it should be done.
For the Article Field, you should notify Peter van Westen (@regular labs) on Integrating that.
An example can be found here: https://github.com/bluecoderr/joomla_customizations/tree/main/plugins/fields/myfield
Hence the ball is on his side now.

Ok noted but he may take forever to do that alteration. Could you possibly give me the details of any coder that I can commission to fix this and a few more things ?
Hi
I can possibly underatake that.
But it require to hack the Article Field plugin, which means that you could no longer update it. At least until it integrates with JFilters.
Are you ok with that?

Yes I am totally fine with that but I have a very limited budget for that. When could you do that for me and how much more importantly...
I have one other possible mod I would like to discuss with you . What is your email?
Hi
Peter notified me that he added support for JFilters in his development releases.
https://regularlabs.com/development-releases
Please check and let me know if this works.

perfect will check just now. Thank you thank you!!
By the way - do you have any feature on Jfilters that makes it display horizontally?
h there,
It is still not an officia release - he says use the developer versions on live sites at your own risk so Im waiting for him to officially release it then I will let you know. The wait is getting long now :(
Hi
Developers need your feedback before this becomes official. Then it will be too late.
That's the notion of the dev releases. To get feedback and make corrections.
So the best way to speed this up, is to test it and provide feedback.

Hi
I suppose you do not bother providing any feedback.
I notified Peter that i cannot provide any real feedback on his integration, with whatever this means.
