The plugin is designed for Joomla custom fields in the article context and extends the default field behaviour by optionally loading additional runtime data for the selected article. ## Purpose The plugin lets an editor store a Joomla article selection as a custom field value and use that value in the field layout as a link to the selected article. When needed, the plugin can also load the full article object and the custom fields of the selected article. ## Plugin Parameters - **Load article data?** When enabled, the full selected article object is loaded during field preparation and exposed in `$field->article`. - **Load article custom fields?** When enabled, the custom fields of the selected article are loaded and exposed in `$field->jcfields`. - **Show create article button?** When enabled, the field can open the Joomla core article creation modal in administrator forms. - **Show edit article button?** When enabled, the field can open the Joomla core article edit modal in administrator forms. ## Field Parameters The same four parameters are available on the individual field level. Each field can either override the global plugin setting or keep using the plugin default. ## Runtime Data Contract - `$field->value` contains the resolved URL of the selected article. - `$field->rawvalue` contains the originally stored field value. - `$field->article_id` contains the identifier of the selected article. - `$field->article_title` contains the article title used for link output. - `$field->article` contains the full article object when article-data loading is enabled. - `$field->jcfields` contains the article custom fields when article-field loading is enabled. ## Default Layout Behaviour The bundled field layout renders a link to the selected article even when full article loading and article custom field loading are disabled. The link is built from the runtime data prepared by the plugin. ## Administrator Usage The field relies on Joomla core `modal_article` behaviour and keeps the standard administrator interaction model. When the related parameters are enabled and ACL allows it, the field can display Joomla core create and edit article actions. ## Joomla **Extension type:** Plugin **Folder:** Fields **Joomla version:** 6.0.4 ## Gallery ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/112/en-GB/gallery/1c09H7bpsU7.webp) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/112/en-GB/gallery/AMhvexcIXz3.webp) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/112/en-GB/gallery/bSZ9v4ZTZAb.webp) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/112/en-GB/gallery/rpBUoz6kKoD.webp) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/112/en-GB/gallery/pcFscBv25rN.webp) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/112/en-GB/gallery/Et2xpU420xr.webp) ![...](https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/images/swjprojects/projects/112/en-GB/gallery/LTnojn6Uu3P.webp) ## What's new 2026-04-06 22:02:59 Addition ### Initial verison First extension version ## JSON-LD Schema ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/#/schema/BreadcrumbList/17", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "item": { "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/en", "name": "Home" } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "item": { "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev", "name": "Joomla extensions" } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "item": { "@id": "/en/dev/joomla-plugins", "name": "Joomla plugins" } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "item": { "name": "WT Article Select" } } ] } ``` ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "Organization", "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/#/schema/Organization/base", "name": "WebTolk", "url": "https://web-tolk.ru/", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/#/schema/ImageObject/logo", "url": "images/webtolk-1080p.jpg", "contentUrl": "images/webtolk-1080p.jpg", "width": 1920, "height": 1080 }, "image": { "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/#/schema/ImageObject/logo" }, "sameAs": [ "https://github.com/WebTolk", "https://github.com/sergeytolkachyov", "https://vk.com/web_tolk", "https://vk.com/webtolkru", "https://tenchat.ru/sergeytolkachyov", "https://t.me/sergeytolkachyov", "https://t.me/webtolkru" ] }, { "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/#/schema/WebSite/base", "url": "https://web-tolk.ru/", "name": "WebTolk websites development, Joomla Extensions", "publisher": { "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/#/schema/Organization/base" } }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://web-tolk.ru/#/schema/WebPage/base", "url": "https://web-tolk.ru/en/dev/joomla-plugins/wt-article-select", "name": "WT Article Select is a custom field plugin for selecting Joomla content - WebTolk websites development, Joomla Extensions", "description": "A Joomla custom field plugin for selecting content with the ability to load article data, its custom fields, and action buttons in the admin area.
