Extra types for the native Joomla custom fields: file upload, YouTube and Vimeo video, Google, OpenStreetMap and Bing maps, an audio player, PayPal, WhatsApp and more.
Advanced Custom Fields by Tassos Marinos adds around twenty new types to the native Joomla custom fields. The fields work in articles, user profiles and third-party extensions built on the core fields system. It suits catalogues, company sites and media projects that need a video, a map, a file or a payment button inside an article without touching the template.
Features
- File Upload: drag-and-drop uploads in the backend with limits on the number, size and type of files; the frontend shows a download link.
- Video: YouTube with player options (size, autoplay, controls), Vimeo, DailyMotion, Facebook Video and HTML5 Video (MP4, Ogg, WebM).
- Audio: HTML5 Audio (MP3, Wav, Ogg) and a SoundCloud player.

- PayPal: donations, product sales or subscriptions straight from a field.
- Utility fields: True/False, TimePicker, Progress Bar, IFrame, URL, Download, Currency and Country (which can prefill the visitor's country).
