I need help and don't know if this is possible.

In Category Item List View, I know I can enable the extra fields to appear under the thumbnail.

Question:

Is there away to only have certain fields displayed?

for example:

  if I have a thumbnail and the extra fields has 20 fields. I want to list numbers: 1,3,5,19 only?

 

thanks in advance,

You will have to modify it manually for those specific fields to appear in the category item.

please let me know what files?

You will have to edit the category_item.php. If you are using K2 overrides then go to (templates/Your template/html/com_k2/default/category_item.php). Locate the block that calls the extrafields and replace it with something like the following:

 

<?php if($this->item->params->get('catItemExtraFields') && count($this->item->extra_fields)): ?>  <!-- Item extra fields -->  <div class="catItemExtraFields">      <h4><?php echo JText::_('K2_ADDITIONAL_INFO'); ?></h4>      <ul>        <?php foreach ($this->item->extra_fields as $key=>$extraField): ?>                        <?php if ($extraField->id==1): ?>                                <li class="<?php echo ($key%2) ? "odd" : "even"; ?> type<?php echo ucfirst($extraField->type); ?> group<?php echo $extraField->group; ?>">                    <span class="catItemExtraFieldsLabel"><?php echo $extraField->name; ?></span>                    <span class="catItemExtraFieldsValue"><?php echo $extraField->value; ?></span>                </li>            <?php elseif ($extraField->id==3): ?>                <li class="<?php echo ($key%2) ? "odd" : "even"; ?> type<?php echo ucfirst($extraField->type); ?> group<?php echo $extraField->group; ?>">                    <span class="catItemExtraFieldsLabel"><?php echo $extraField->name; ?></span>                    <span class="catItemExtraFieldsValue"><?php echo $extraField->value; ?></span>                </li>            <?php elseif ($extraField->id==5): ?>                <li class="<?php echo ($key%2) ? "odd" : "even"; ?> type<?php echo ucfirst($extraField->type); ?> group<?php echo $extraField->group; ?>">                    <span class="catItemExtraFieldsLabel"><?php echo $extraField->name; ?></span>                    <span class="catItemExtraFieldsValue"><?php echo $extraField->value; ?></span>                </li>            <?php elseif ($extraField->id==19): ?>                <li class="<?php echo ($key%2) ? "odd" : "even"; ?> type<?php echo ucfirst($extraField->type); ?> group<?php echo $extraField->group; ?>">                    <span class="catItemExtraFieldsLabel"><?php echo $extraField->name; ?></span>                    <span class="catItemExtraFieldsValue"><?php echo $extraField->value; ?></span>                </li>            <?php else: echo ''; endif; ?>                        <?php endforeach; ?>        </ul>    <div class="clr"></div>  </div><?php endif; ?>
