Hello,

I have a question. It would be possible add to version 2.7.1 a new feature? I would like to be able to insert predefined label to the title. In some extensions, it is called "marks", "types", "levels" etc.

It is now possible to distinguish items only according to categories and tags. But I need insert to the title of the items "Updated" (but only for important news), "Breaking News", "Exclusively" etc. All the major news sites have these labels.

It's a small thing, but very helpful for me. It would K2 has moved another step forward.

Have a nice day, Jan

Hello Jan,

You can easily do this with an extrafield in your overrides.
You can render any extafield using this code as a starting point.

No need to install any extension what so ever Jan.
Extrafields are available by default.

You just need to tweak your overrides a bit (getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates)

The code I sent you is a starting point for displaying extrafields anywhere in your template.
