Hello.
I use last version of EZenhanceObject Relation on latest 3.4 version.
I notice the following behaviour:
1) class and node filtering
- I create an attribute and set <b>default selection node</b> AND <b>class</b> filters
- under the node specified I have objects from several classes and I see also these objects(i.e. users and user groups).
I was wondering if this is the normal behaviour of the extension?
2) I got an Error when using DropDown presentation
In the datatype/edit template(line 29) 

$node.node_id

is accessed.
I got an error message there which is (I believe) correct because at that place, no access to a local var 

$node

and not even to the global 

$node

(because we're in edit mode so no access to global $node).
Is that correct?
Thank you.

Hello,

I'm afraid we never needed to put both the node id and the class. For what I remembern that an OR.

If you know the template language and willing to try to modify the behavior, yo that's this template : extension/enhancedobjectrelation/design/standard/
templates/content/datatype/edit/ezenhancedobjectrelation.tpl

I'd be delighted to add your enhancement.

OK, Xavier, here's my pick then:
1. We should now have 3 filter options (Node), (class) , and (node and class).
2. I supposed the following(also deducing from your code :-)
2.1 if (Node) => All objects below that node(LIST fetch)
2.2 if (Class) => All objects of (Class) below the root node (2)(TREE fetch)
2.3 if (Node and Class) => All objects of (Class) below (Node)(LIST fetch)

Even, implemented like this for the time being, I would recommend the followings:
1. Let the user choose if he wants a list of tree by recording this in the datatype
2. Allow to select multiple nodes

I would really pleased to update the TPL script part for you, if you implement these two features in the PHP part.
These two extra-features really open up the possibilities of your datatype.

Back to the code, I added a new dadatype presentation too.
<b>1. the class edit datatype</b>
Please, note that I changed slightly the names of presentations so that they are technically more accurate(in my humble opinion, Xavier). So here are the changes...

<div class="element">
<label>{'Selection method'|i18n( 'design/standard/class/datatype' )}</label><div class="labelbreak"></div>

<select name="ContentClass_ezobjectrelation_selection_type_{$class_attribute.id}">
    <option value="4" {eq( $content.selection_type, 4 )|choose( '', 'selected="selected"' )}>{'Multiple select box'|i18n( 'design/standard/class/datatype' )}</option>
    <option value="3" {eq( $content.selection_type, 3 )|choose( '', 'selected="selected"' )}>{'Check boxes list'|i18n( 'design/standard/class/datatype' )}</option>
    <option value="1" {eq( $content.selection_type, 1 )|choose( '', 'selected="selected"' )}>{'Dropdown list'|i18n( 'design/standard/class/datatype' )}</option>
    <option value="2" {eq( $content.selection_type, 2 )|choose( '', 'selected="selected"' )}>{'Radio buttons list'|i18n( 'design/standard/class/datatype' )}</option>
{*    <option value="0" {eq( $content.selection_type, 0 )|choose( '', 'selected="selected"' )}>{'Browse'|i18n( 'design/standard/class/datatype' )}</option>*}
</select>

Lots of very good suggestions.

Could you contact me by email to discuss about how to make things move (eg, you use pubsvn to commit your patches).

ez .at. sydesy .dot. com

Talk to you soon

P.S. I'm going to add a suggestion for ez: let the authenticated users see other users email.
