JRVR Profile Selection

<< < (11/18) > >>

jmone:
Thanks!

So I'm back to the same issue.  Wanting to change between JRVR Profiles based on an MCC/MCWS command that:
- is not based on file fields, and that
- "sticks" as the new default once changed

jmone:
I've put some MCWS questions over in the "Third Party Plug-ins, Programs, and Skins" that may work as:

- CreateField: "http://localhost:52199/MCWS/v1/Library/CreateField?Name=JRVR_Profile_To_Use&Expression=1" (or 2, 3 etc).  It's fast and easy to create and populate the value over all items and should work with JRVR's profile matching , but...

I need a similar fast MCWS way to either:
- UpdateField: update this calculated field (say from "1" to "2"), or
- DeleteField: remove the field so it can be recreated again

I think this would work nicely with JRVR as it currently stands for manually selecting a JRVR profile.

Hendrik:
This will not work. Changing a field will not make JRVR reevaluate the profile rules.

It's also a gigantic hack, updating a field on all files is expensive and rather unnecessary when all you want is to change a setting.

We'll come back to this topic in MC32.

jmone:
I agree.  Just needed to start looking at hacks alternatives given this feature is currently not available.  I'd MUCH prefer to wait for a real soln. 
Thanks
Nathan

Is now a good time to bring it back up?

Thanks
