The profile feature of Tiki is a really powerful tool, but it could be more flexible in processing user input before applying profiles.
Right now, it is only possible to request string (Input Text) data from the user during applying a profile .
I'm planning to do a really customizable profile, that can be configured via the user request form.
It should be possible to have more supported controls like checkboxes, radio buttons and (single/multi) dropdown selections.
Then these input data should also be used within a condition (IF/ELSE statements) to react on these user input during processing the profile apply.
Example:
Show a list of predefined groups an a offer to the admin user.
He can select, what groups are needed and which are then automatically set up by the profile:
[ ] Group Sales
[ ] Group Marketing
[ ] Group Administration
Visuals possibly like:
Important:
By having such controls available it is mandatory to be able to use them with conditions (IF/ELSE IF/ELSE) within the YAML code to be able to switch processing on the given selection.
