TOPIC: K2 Integration

Is there any know way to integrate DT Register with K2 content?

If not, is there plan on making it compatible with the ever-gwowing in popularity K2 component? This is all I use for my site content for the past 6 months or so.

I would really love to see the two working together.

I'm also using K2 heavy sites. I can tell you that the DT EventLink plugin does work to link to registrations from a K2 content page.

I really like the way the component FrontPage Slideshow functions in that the detail pages/articles can be Joomla articles, menu items, or specific URL's. In that way, you can simply link the detail page to any K2 page (category OR item) you want.

Thanks for the reply Jake,

How does the EventLink plugin work? I have it enabled, does it attempt to automatically link the event with the article or is there some kind of code I need to use? I have created to events on my site, each event has a K2 article but, they aren't linked up.

What am I missing?

Yes, it's pretty easy and if you go one level higher in this forum there is a sticky discussion thread on how to use the EventLink, but I can give you the run down.

The plugin add a "Register Now" button, to your K2 article. It does not work in reverse, where someone is viewing the DT Register event, and clicks DETAILS to see your K2 article (it's on my wishlist).

Basically, at the end of the article (eh...item) you need to add a line of code:

{*dtregister*}eventid{*/dtregister*}

between the squiggly brackets, remove the *'s. they are only there bc of the way this forum handles that.

The eventid, is the id number for your dt register event. This can be found on the dt reg component page under events. There is a column titled event id. Use this number.

I wrote that from memory so you'll probably want to check the actual instructions on the main forum page under Joomla 1.5 General Discussion.
That's it.
