Widgetkit2 Custom Widget Plugin was created by Usop Wilcha
Hello

Did anyone here know a better solution for this?

yootheme.com/widgetkit/documentation/customizing/custom-widget-plugin

I think there's some for the older version here, but seems to be outdated

github.com/gobezu/widgetkit_k2
bitbucket.org/gobezu/k2fields/downloads

Anyone know the tricks? regardless free or commercial

I'm interested to know on how to display some K2 custom fields values on a module, think like directory contents display module

Thanks!

Hello Danny,

What sort of data are you trying to display? From K2 items or custom data from the module?

-UPDATE-

WidgetKit 2 (Full Commercial Version) already support K2, just install the provided plugin - plg_system_widgetkit_k2

Thread Solved / Closed

Thanks! Krikor!



Hi

Let's me rephrase my question, its maybe not very clear previously

I'm looking any possibilities to display K2 custom fields value on a module

WidgetKit2 seems offering some solution with so called Field Mapping

yootheme.com/widgetkit/documentation/customizing/field-mapping

For time being, we need to create a custom plugin, which is a hassle for newbie, in order to the system integrate with each others

So, perhaps, K2 developer can write some fix for this or universal adaptable plugin that can modulate K2 and WidgetKit2 seamlessly

There's other option for this, for those who still searching, but i'm stick for K2 for now - www.jbuildozer.com/

I am asking because with the K2 Content module you can display the item's extrafields. If you are looking for other data populated by a 3rd party extension you can ask the plugin's developer.

Thanks!

Yeah.. but i never used it before, other than the login module

Perhaps, if we can choose which custom field value that can be displayed through the module, that's really a big plus!

Overall, i think K2 still is the best CCK available around, thanks to the developer for the great effort :)

Thank you for your kind words :)
The K2 content module can also be overridden so the options are pretty much endless.

You can render a specific extrafield based on its alias like this:
github.com/kricore/Advanced-templating-with-K2/blob/master/_inc/cheatsheet.php#L104-L109

Keep in mind that you need to watch where $this->item and $item is being used in the code.
