Linked Articles plugin... but for Users?

Marc's Avatar Marc
Hi Peter,

Usually I assign the Articles Field Custom Field to *Articles*.
But for a project I am now assigning the Articles Field to *Users* and it works fine 🙂

The only thing is that I wanted to be able to make the link in the other direction, namely having the Users where the current given Article is selected.
It is exactly what the "Linked Articles" Custom Field does in the context of Articles<=>Articles.
But I would need to be able to have the equivalent in the context of Users<=>Articles.

(or maybe a SQL Custom Field could do it?)

Txs for your thoughts 🙂

This is currently not an option in Articles Field. It is designed for Articles<=>Articles.
So yes, that would require custom sql/php.

Also, Users don't even have a public view, so there wouldn't even be any page to link it to. So it would have to be Contacts<=>Articles, if anything.

Hi Andra,
There are 2 solutions for the view of Users : - Users Anywhere itself
- if you use YOOtheme

The idea is that Users can select Articles (being activitiee)... and the page for that activité shows the isers who will show up.
