Adding HTML5 color picker to your product settings
 

http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit....put_type_color

In this article i will explain how to put an HTML5 colorpicker to your product setting. Usually what you can do is making a normal input text field where admins can put hex colors you can then use $vbulletin->options['setting_name'] to get that hex value but if you're looking for something more beautiful and easy to use (fir admins) then do as described.


Varname: Your setting varname (to use it later on your mod)

Setting group: The group of settings where the setting is

Product: Your product name

Title: The title of your setting (e.g. Color of the background)

Description: The description of your setting (e.g. Choose a color fron the color picker)

Option code: In this case custom eval code
Remember that the value you insert will be used in a php string between two double-quotes so in your html tag you can use <font color=\" or <font color=', in this case i decide to use apostrophes.

Default: Your default value (e.g. #000000)

Data Validation type: Free

Validation PHP Code: Not useful now

This is how it will look, it doesn't work on all browsers, on old browsers you'll see a normal text field

Scanu, thanks for sharing! What about multiple color pickers with separated values(such as a comma separated), but in one setting? Something like this:

At this moment, I add to Code Option next value:
I understand what wthis not correct. And I almost undersand wherefore after save settings, I have the same value for all three color pickers. As I understand for "Code Option" needed more tricky code, which would collect all the values separated by a comma, and in the cycle, based on the available number of values, would create the same number of color pickers. But I`m not very good understood how does work eval code in "Code Option" fields(((
