Content plugins in categories (solution found!!!)

More on this:
file com_flexicontent/views/category/view.html.php
It has a commented piece of code
:
This has definitely something to do with loading plugins. Tried uncommenting but the result is the same: nothing. Then I debugged com_content/views/category/view.html.php to see how it loads plugin. The code is almost the same except it triggers content plugins like this:
Just before a piece of code very similar to flexicontents view.html.php . The result: a blank page. Most probably due to an error. Hope I'm of any help.
Either way, content plugins triggers aren't working with categories descriptions.

:Code:
$item->event = new stdClass();
$results = $dispatcher->trigger('onAfterDisplayTitle', array (& $item, & $item->params,0));
$item->event->afterDisplayTitle = trim(implode("\n", $results));
$results = $dispatcher->trigger('onBeforeDisplayContent', array (& $item, & $item->params, 0));
$item->event->beforeDisplayContent = trim(implode("\n", $results));
$results = $dispatcher->trigger('onAfterDisplayContent', array (& $item, & $item->params, 0));

Done ! Needs more tests when inserting loadposition but i've tested it with backbutton and google_map (mosmap2) plugins and it works.
Just find the text in com_flexicontent/views/category/view.html.php
Just bellow the commented code block (you can replace it as well) add this piece of code and voilá ! Plugins are triggered just like in standard joomla categories/sections .
Hope it helps !
and btw, now the changelog is really correct ... :twisted:
Edit:
I've removed the "foreach" piece of code as it is not necessary. The code block above reflects the final version of this hack.
