Description

With the advent of packages, it is possible to have a single entry that is both filter and activity module, or block and activity module, etc. It would be nice if we could select all relevant so that if someone is searching for a filter that is included in a package they will be able to find it even if they do not know that it is part of a package. This came up in conversations with Susana Leitao and her work on the Bibliography package. She had initially entered them as both an activity module and filter and I am trying to figure out the best way to combine them. Peace - Anthony

Anthony, thanks for your suggested improvement, however I fear it would involve a lot of work as changing a field would mean that each entry would have to be manually edited. Or perhaps you can think of a simpler way? If so, feel free to make the change!

Thanks Helen - I will play with making the change on a test server and then if I feel it can be done with a little phpMyAdmin magic, I'll work out the details and make sure HQ (MD or Jordan) are OK with doing it. There is no rush but I would like to move in that direction. Peace - Anthony

I think I would also like to play with the idea of doing multi-select menu with the version numbers. Peace - Anthony
