Great news I think the option that we've Put in place especially for those of you that have really purchase some JCB packages Like the demo Advanced demo component or the Sermon distributor component This will be excellent news so let me demonstrate what we've 00:00:20 Done And also makes suggestions Of future Changes On the import components area now There is an extra tab And with this tab you can now easily Import Paid or free Components 00:00:39 That We actually distribute. It's called the VDM packages so it took of moment to load it it does take a while because it actually queries At the moment it queries GitHub And check and gets a list of all the latest packages So if we You know updated GitHub it will automatically show then the new packages 00:01:01 Here So And we will be adding more free options I, we are planning to to add some more free packages here the moment there is only 2 To really most of them are paid So you could You can buy any of these packages and use it in anyway you like So The Hello World is free and the demo version 00:01:24 here is free but you could, yes you can actually get any of these and if you You're ready purchased a sermon distributor version you can just select it here Because you know JCB is constantly improving And so Sermon Distributor is also improving And so we making changes to To sermon distributor and if you wanna update yours or even if you have played with it and you wanna reset it But know remember 00:01:52 If you got a reset it it will reset everything in Including every field and even Field types So Do Keep that in mind That if you install this package Over the existing one 00:02:07 It will revert everything Back what is great though Is that Joomla obviously keeps history right If you put your history on for the JCB component so that means you could actually take a step back and some of those every If you want it Anyway that's just a little Side note so you basically select the package you want to install and then click on get package This will take a while as it's downloading it from GitHub please make sure to read all these things I didn't even now Trough that but 00:02:37 you should read All of these packages are fully you know all that Is written there So you end up at the page which We usually would Shows you who made the package If you still didn't get the key you could click on this link here To actually go buy the key 00:02:55 And get it For any of the other packages as well Or before getting here there's a there's a link That says By packages you could also click on those and then select the package you like Here it'll show you the component that is actually being in Stalled which is says here is sermon Distributor 00:03:12 2.0 2.0.2 Which is the latest version And You then add your key here Which I will do in a moment And then click continue Which then makes it Install We added this new switch here quiet And some of your 00:03:31 Releases that might be a spelling mistake like This one here which is Quite But we fixed it and We did push out The the fix For this Which means in JCB 7.8.1 Possibly 00:03:50 2.7. O oh sorry 2.7.1 Come on We'll have this typo fixed Anyway what this does Is it give the option to see exactly everything it does JCBs Importing on the package So the actually tells you what ID was changed to what ID It doesn't give you the names just give you ID references so gives you a lot of more Sort of insight of what happened 00:04:19 Which is obviously used for when something doesn't go right you could click on this so usually it's set to quiet you don't really wanna see all that detail you just want to know it's done but if you wanna see the detail you basically click yes And here if you want to overwrite existing Data You see how the force location update works Is if it finds an item And that item is Newer Then the one 00:04:48 That is Being imported then it Drops the import option And it keeps the newer version in your system So if you click here that's how usually works with the force local update to No if you change this to Yes Then it will ignore the time stamp completely And update the item irrespective whether it is newer or older or whatever Ok so that's that 00:05:15 So we're at the ID and then we click Continue I'm gonna pause the video from home as you want to see the ID And there you have it So it gave me a very detailed Print out so when it didn't find when it founded It says it founded and then it updated it But if it didn't find it it will actually say that ID so and so in field Was changed to ID so and so And it's been 00:05:44 Imported so there is the list Of everything he Did Yeah it's quite a long list I'm Scrolling I'm Scrolling Ok and then the bottom it says great if that's what you would usually see Just that So All of The Rest 00:06:00 It actually just Showed you because we ticked it Not to be quiet so now was Sermon Distributor imported Now you can open at look at it Basically it's Should have all the data here The licensing might have changed so just add another licence here and then Save and Close And then you can actually compile it as easy as that 00:06:28 So Sermon Distributor click compile And Then once it's compiled obviously then you have the Joomla package so what this does It also included the The external script with Is also the sort of a Demonstration of actually The adding external scripts So it's grabbing it from GitHub. You can go and look at that. 00:06:54 It is simply a script that checks For mime types And it tells you that first time very Detailed in there after you only see This And only if it changes when will you see Something like that again Ok so you can click here on install And now if you go to components there it is Sermon Distributor Fully mapped 00:07:17 Well all functional JCB Has Built This by importing it first from our GitHub repository and then you're able to adapt it and Use it in Anywhere you like Anyway yeah that is the The new feature I wanted to sort of demonstrate I hope you like it What the suggestion is at the moment we can 00:07:44 Just go back there for a moment Importing components The suggestion is to have even a 5th tab So there will be This tab VDM packages and then a Community tab like over here Which Those of you in the community Good one to share 00:08:04 Free Components We could add that in here And we still thinking about the paid You know share sharing paid components Yeah we still think about how that could Work Of course at the moment it shouldn't become Too complicated because if you if you click on anything 00:08:28 And then click get package That package It's has it Internal The variables Which actually decides the What this values going to Be right So if we would 00:08:42 Click this value It takes you to my shop Where you then purchase that specific product Ok So That is a valued Determined by the package Which means it shouldn't be that hard for us to actually include paid options paid components What is a little bit of a challenge 00:09:06 Is whether JCB should actually ask for a little bit of a Yeah contribution To support a project in this Way so we still discussing that anyway anyone have a suggestions please post it here at the bottom of the Video make comments Tell me what you think The end of day We wanna make sure that the community can use this 00:09:33 In long run that it becomes a nice tool I'm even thinking of moving this option this whole getting to Importing of components To an actual tab On the desk on the dashboard So you can get to this page without having to first go to Components and then Click through here 00:09:54 So there is even that kind of discussion but just for now we wanted to demonstrate the new feature it's It's actually been able to do that already We just didn't have that extra tab but you could have copied The links to those packages on GitHub and have imported them that way that's Should basically what what the ReadMe files would have shown you if you purchase any of these keys. Ok well thank for watching again. and speak to you again.
