Roadmap

This roadmap is subject to change and should only be used as a general guideline regarding future SobiPro releases. As long as a version, feature or application is not yet released, the dates are estimated and may alter.

The development process of SobiPro applications is community-driven. We carry out polls in regular intervals. The winning app will be developed next. The polls are available for club members and non-club members.

Not all functionality known by Sobi2, will be implemented at a time, but step by step. Remember that SobiPro is NOT a Sobi2 upgrade, but a totally new component coded from scratch, so everything needs being implemented again.

IMPORTANT: If you have a Sobi2 site and want to switch to SobiPro, first check if all needed functions and add-ons are available for SobiPro also. Also, notice that there's no direct migration tool available, so this should be planned carefully. Ask/check in the forums for how other users have done it.

The already published applications may also have their own roadmap. You will find it in the description page of that app in Download Directory. Just click on the tab 'Roadmap'.

Feature List of SobiPro 1.1

Entries and Categories on Front-end:

  • Entry Deletion
    At the moment an entry can only be un-published from front-end. The front-end entry management will be extended by the possibility to delete an entry.
  • User Listings view
    User Listings view will be added. It will be accessible via URL.
  • Listings by date view
    Listings by date view will be added. It will be accessible via URL.
  • Different Listings views by template override
    Selectable view template from Joomla! menu. With that it will be possible to create different views like most popular listings or recently added or updated listings.
  • Direct Entry Selection
    The possibility to link directly to an specific entry via Joomla! Menu Manager will be added. With this SobiPro can be used for each content on your site.

Search Function:

  • Category Search
    The search feature of SobiPro will be expanded by the possibility to filter the search results by one or more category. Thus only entries of these specific categories will be shown.
  • Second Search Ordering
    The SobiPro search results are ordered by priority. If several entries in the results list have the same priority, they can be ordered by a second ordering which will be setup in the configuration.
  • Range Search Improvement
    The Range search functionality in SobiPro will be expanded by the possibility to use input fields to enter free definable range values.

Administration Panel:

  • Administration panel Re-design
    Re-design of SobiPro administration panel using Bootstrap library. With the usage of the Bootstrap library SobiPro will be Joomla! 3.0 compliant.

Fields/Fields Manager:

  • Definition file for Radio Button field
    Like for Select List fields, a INI definition file with predefined radio options can be uploaded in the Fields Manager to a Radio Button field.
  • Category Chooser
    A new field of type 'Category Chooser' will be added to the core fields. It will replace the implemented category chooser in SobiPro and allows to choose between different types of category selection methods.
  • URL Field expansion
    The URL field will be expanded by the 'click count' feature. With this you will be able to count how often an URL is clicked.

Configuration:

  • Joomla! 3.0 compatibility
  • Redirection for Add Entry Form Access
    If adding an entry is not allowed via ACL, a new possibility to define a redirection page will be implemented in SobiPro.
  • Redirection After Saving an Entry
    Customizable page redirection after an entry has been saved will be added to the Redirection configuration.
  • Entries order reversible
    The setting 'Sort Entries by Field' will get the new option to reverse the order.
  • Prohibition of assigning an entry to parent category
    A possibility to configure the behavior of assigning an entry to a parent category will be available.
  • Category and Entry Alias for URL
    The category and entry alias can be used for URL creation instead of the category or name title.
  • Meta Data for specific Views
    Settings for meta data for views like the Add Entry Form or the Search function.

Development Tools:

  • Limit XML raw data to a specific IP
    XML raw data output is an essential functionality to create your own customized template. As it contains a lot of data which you do not want to public even in the development phase of your site, you will be able to limit the raw data output to a specific address.
  • Handling for jQuery Conflicts
    The handling for jQuery conflicts with other jQuery libraries will be improved.
  • Template Updater
    Possibility to update an template without creating a new section.

Remember that you can report bugs in our tracker.
