Question about Custom Properties was created by freddy
I would like to know if it's easy to adapt Custom Properties for an another joomla component.
I use a music library in Joomla www.joomlathat.com/demo/music-collection .
Using CPTags will be geniously to organize a big collection of music.

Replied by andrea_4g on topic Question about Custom Properties
Adapting Custom Properties to other extension is possible and quite straightforward in many cases.
One just needs to code a content element connector.
( solidsystem.it/joomla-extensions/custom-...nt_element_connector )
But...
In this case there are additional difficulties. The biggest one is that you need to have a player for each result in the result list.
This is outside Custom Properties standard* capabilities, because a standard result item consists of text + image.
* We actually developed a music library extension that seamlessly integrate a specialized version of Custom Properties to categorize albums and tracks; the two extensions work very effectively together.
