How to use an alias field to use a string-type ID field ... was created by Paul Delbar
I would like to use a table which has a string field as its main identifier. The ID could be generated in the background, but the principle way to form a route for this component would be something like
/mycomponentmenuitem/myStringValue
I can change the type of the ID field to string, but I cannot edit it in a form. Also, the router does not understand it. I've tried using alias fields as well, with limited success.
Has anyone done this before, and if so, could you point to a place here I can find some doc or a sample ?

Hello,
This is not something related to our Component Creator, but to Joomla!
In Joomla, the IDs should be integer and autoincremented, otherwise the router will experience some troubles. If you need to customise your router or anything else, our premium users receive custom support via our ticket system.
Regards.
