I have a custom dropdown in common.config. In most cases, I want all items to appear in this dropdown, but sometimes I want a different list of items.

Is there a way to load a different config file when I want to?

 

Much like ConfigurationPath, but for common.config instead? 

Good question.

 

I would like to see an option to send custom XML to override the file so on-the-fly configs could be built and sent, rather than create 4,297 config files for toolbars also.  

so is there a way to override @ runtime?

in common.config:

<CustomDropdown>

   <item text="abc" value="123"></item>

   <item text="def" value="456"></item>

   <item text="ghi" value="789"></item>

</CustomDropdown> 

 

 

then override in the editor page: 

$editor->showCustomDropDownItems = "abc,ghi";

Cos,

 

It would have to be either:

 

NVP

$editor->showCustomDropDownItems = '<item text="abc" value="123"></item><item text="ghi" value="789"></item>'; 

 

thanks jmarcv,

 

i was quickly going off of existing (non-custom) examples that already exist in Common.config with (i think) the ability to declare which one(s) appear, but you are likely correct... really if any method would work I'd be quite happy!
