Hello to all!

Can somebody point me: how can i show an extrafield in any other extension?

If i guess correctly, there must be a file include of a k2-file, and then the code like this:
<?php
$extrafields = array();
foreach($this->item->extra_fields as $item)
{ $extrafields[$item->id] = $item->value; }
echo $extrafields['4']; 
 ?>

Thanks for any advice!

Hello xaoc,

I don't think you can do this, not with this snippet anyway. K2Store is a seperate component and you need to look at its overrides and code to understand how to get data from a K2 item.

Can you please be more specific? How i must understand your answer? The showing of K2 extrafield in another place isn't generally possible? I don't think so. My question is about how to do it.

I think you need to ask the K2 store developers if it is possible to do this with their extension.

Thanks for the notice, to be honest I was not aware of that.

I had i hosted on a cheap hosting service (don't ask why). They deleted all my files and all I got was this lousy page. Hardware error, they said and no backup of course.

I haven't found the time to fix it yet.

As for your question You can use a K2 content module and display the extrafield of a specific item or you can develop a K2 plugin which does this. If you go with the module you 'll probably need another extension which will give you more control over your modules and where they are being rendered. Try advanced module manager.

When i read something like this (and other forum topics) i am very, very happy that i moved completely to Drupal and Wordpress. Thank God for that, despite many years to late.

What is a point of all talk about Joomla new fancy codings, standards, blah-blah, Nobody seems to make some use of it. What you could make with Joomla 1.5, you can make with 3.x. With same amount of time spent.

Something is very, very wrong with Joomla community.

Sorry for off topic, just wanted to say hallo to my old crowd.
