New plugin ! A customizable slider input

Showcase
43

Hey @austin, you could always put some sort of function on the group your plugin is in.

As you probably are already aware, the only function that (by default) will cause (element) plugins to run any sort of function is when an element’s main interface field values change (which causes the update function to run).

But you could put some “watcher” type function on some other element in the DOM.

What is it – precisely – you’re trying to do?

Thanks, I greatly appreciate it!

@keith nothing too complicated. A client of mine was using a toggle (think more stylized checkbox) plugin, but it hadn’t been updated in quite some time and was missing some essential features such as the ability to reset. So I’ve forked the plugin, cleaned it up, and added some things. Thus far I’ve been using a “reset” action like some other plugins do, but since I saw @theunsolver found a way to make it perform the way default bubble inputs do, I was curious how that could be done.

Hello @theunsolver ,

Is a vertical design of your slider possible please?

Thanks!

Hi there,
Sorry it took me so long.
I looked back into my plugin, :grimacing: how messy it is…
I’ve checked the “Add a reset action to wipe the content” box in the editor,

but the issue is that the “properties” argument given to that function does not contain any of the “properties” of the element (doesn’t contain its default value or any property at all).
The trick I found was to store all properties given in the “update” function in the instance.data object so that I could use them back in the reset function.
It is dirty, but as soon as values of the element (the slider in this case) are modified, it always triggers the update function first, so the infos stored in instance.data are always up to date.

I hope it might help if it’s not too late, if you have any question I can go in further details !

Hi @milos.halecka
The slider can not be used vertically yet, but it is an interesting feature. I will take a look at what I can do.
However, as I said earlier, I have a lot of work on my plate and I can’t spend a lot of time on non-critical features of my plugins. If I find out it would take too much time to allow for vertical sliders but it is a real need, I might do it for a small amount.

I’ll keep in touch, give me a week or so
In the midtime, happy bubbling !

Fantastic! I didn’t even realize that option was there, thanks a lot!

Hi everyone !

I don’t know if the people who bought the slider are the ones who will read this, but I am asking for your help.
If you have the Simple Slider Input and liked it, please give it an evaluation (-:
There has been some bugs recently, and one really bad 0-star review killed the average rating. The slider was broken and deserved that mark, but the last month there have been only a half of the usual amount of transaction, and it looks like it will keep going down.
Since only two persons left an appreciation, the number of stars is not representative of the work put into this slider and the efforts made to answer every singular request about it.

So if you like it and think it is worth more than 2.5 stars, please leave a comment or even just a rating :pray:

Thanks for reading.
Happy bubbling !

Hi,

I think the purchase for the full price is not working and one can only subscribe, is this correct?

I tried to purchase the plugin and got this message.

Hi all, I recently required ownership of this plugin from @theunsolver

You can see an updated thread (along with a new demo and editor access) at this link :slight_smile:
