Sounds like what I am trying to figure out. I will tell you this, K2 is much easier to pick up (or at least get a feel for moving around) that jSeblod. Not sure which is better cause neither is giving me a solution, nor is documentation great.
Joomla is database driven, and I know what I want to do is possible, just still don't know how.
I want to list items/articles. Each item will have fields. Items will be categories. Each item (or a number of items) will belong to a unique user.
Then I need to be able to drill down the normal category list.
Category
- Sub-category
- Sub - category1
- Item4 - Field1, Field3, Field6
However, with those fields I wan to be able to drill down into listing. This drill down will be via a Field search menu item. In other words finding the item via the fields.
Then I also want to be able to see what items was listed by which user. I should be able to drill down (filter) the author by a field (location). Then I can see the items listed by the author. Also, I should be able to filter those items.
I am sure fields will solve this, but I don't really know what to do to drill down via fields. An author should be linked to his items via his location field and item category field.
So what I really am trying to say is, like I think what Django is trying to achive, is we are developing a listing and the items will be categorise, only we want to (or at least I think that will work with the fields) be able to drill down into the listing from various angles.
Oh, and an author should only be able to edit, publish, and delete his own items.
WIll K2 work for this? How?
The search continues on K2 and possibly other extensions/CCK's............wanna cry now.....just kidding.
