Using K2 2.5.6 and Joomla 2.5.9

I am tryng to get a couple extra fields to appear in the tag view.

I am getting to the tag view via a menu button using the K2 Tag menu type. I set the tag I want and then the category I want in the filter categories. Even set the template to default rather than my own one I have set up.

I have tried adding

<?php echo $this->item->extraFields->EventDate->value ;?>

to the tag.php to see if I can see anything, but nothing shows.

Is this possible?

Hello Peter,

What you are trying to achieve is not possible with K2 2.5.6, The following snippet works on versions 2.6.2 and newer.

If you want to directly output extra fields you should upgrade to the latest version of K2.

Thanks for the reply.
I think the 2.5.6 was a typo! I am using 2.6.5! Really sorry - it makes all the difference I know.

Pretty sure I couldn't get them to appear in the TAG view.
I will go and take another look but as this is a new build I think it has always been on 2.6.5

Regards
Peter
