Morten hansen I've spoke with Tuan at JoomDonation and they understand the importance of YTP dynamic sources, and they said they'd look into it, but I know their plate is pretty full. That said, without spoiling too much, I'm also helping Zoolanders test their next release and they're ontrack to support more "sources" for dynamic content with the ability for more to come. YOOtheme's new beta release also has more dynamic sources coming very very soon!
This will be a BIG year for all things Joomla! Please feel free to join us on our Discord channel (https://discord.gg/N9TH3Nb8aF) to beta test and offer more input as you see fit.
Thanks!
Regarding Events Booking // I really appreciate the talk with Tuan at JoomDonation and as a big fan and longtime user of zoolanders products I am really excited to hear what you guys are up too.
Event bookings as sources is really something that I need sooner than later, but don't have the skills or the influence to push a solution for. So I really appreciate the insight you gave and hope the ideas will grow into a solution.
Feel free to contact me if you have more or need a person to test solutions for this

// Regarding ZOO4 and Pro2Store //
I have been working 3 weeks now with ZOO4 and YT Pro dynamic Content converting to dynamic content layouts and this is a revolution of possibilities. I cant praise this enough.
(To be honest I haven't used core custom fields much but relied many years on ZOO, so bear that in mind)
The primary reason for using ZOO is I highly rely on front-end user-generated/managed content ...ZOO together with Zoolanders (ZL) has always been outstanding for this ...and still is. This is essential in a platform site and in bigger corporate sites where you want to delegate content creation and management to users/employees.
- The ability to create access management for fields on submit & edit layouts, I use that to manage who can what and to create different plan levels of creator subscriptions.
- ZL has a really powerful dynamic filepaths features with tags for the Image Pro elements that allows for users to upload and manage files/images and only have access to their own folders (can be used in many ways).
- The management of fields and grouping in zoo-types and zoo-apps gives some really nice possibilities and is easy for management, and especially the ZL Pro zoo elements has some features that I haven´t heard of for core fields (correct me if I am wrong)
- ZOO with YT Pro makes it possible to create templates for ZOO content fields (and when these can be created/edited by users) makes It possible for users to manage all content on their pages on the web platform but centrally create the look and useability. This is sooo powerful and gives some many possible design scenarios
I still really believe in the ZOO project and think it has great advantages to core fields.
All in all .. ZOO4 integration with Pro2Store would open up for creating platform/ collaborative shop concepts where you can host multiple sellers/ product managers on the shop with very little skills and still have a great-looking site for years and years. But this setup is also great for small business owners that don´t want to be site designers and want an easy powerful setup managed from front-end.
For me though ...a ZOO4 x YT Pro x Pro2Store setup is not relevant before Pro2Store in the next 6-12 months and before P2S is proved, tested, and has a greater level of features for daily management and usage
