ho yeah.. it's already.. sorry but it's for the category layout..

Code:

<?php if (isset($items[$i]->positions['above-description-line2-nolabel'])) : ?>

but not for the items layout.. i don't know if you want a printScreen to understand what I need

I don't think so that I explained correctly

I know that $items[$i]->position is the position inside the category layout but I need for Items layout.

thanks :-)

mmm, the title of this topic is about file category_items.php which creates the list of items in category view

For item view the file item.php is used, you can see inside it, and find various position

Code:

foreach ($this->item->positions['X'] as $field) : 
...
endforeach

I know

I just want access to some custom field inside each item to create a custom "list item".

but I'm really inside category_items.php.
My template for the items is already created.

I see so you can use my previous answer:

Code:

<?php foreach ($items[$i]->positions['X'] as $field) : ?>
<?php echo $field->label.' : '.$field->display;
<?php endforeach; ?>

This will display field added in position X for item no $i

Hi,

I'm having a similar issue. I don't know what is wrong as i built site before with flexicontent and never has that issue.
I have a feeling it's something stupid but since i've looking for hours now, my only solution is to ask here.

here are my spec:
joomla 2.5.7
FLEXIcontent: version 2.0.0 RC9 (r1514) . The problem was happening with previous RC of version 2.0.0

I've checked other templates to check base my code on but i still get some problem.
I've duplicated an existing template and renamed it.
I've assigned field position in the category.xml file and assigned my field via the template page of the backend.

On my category view that list all items (category_items.php), i've cleaned up so i only have what i need as follow:

Code:

<?php
/**
 * @version 1.5 stable $Id: category_items.php 1033 2011-12-08 08:58:02Z enjoyman@gmail.com $
 * @package Joomla
 * @subpackage FLEXIcontent

 */

defined( '_JEXEC' ) or die( 'Restricted access' );
// first define the template name
$tmpl = $this->tmpl;
?>

<?php $items = & $this->items; ?>
			
<?php foreach ($items as $item) : ?>
<div class="board-member-item">
	<?php if (isset($items[$i]->positions['board-member-picture'])) : ?>
	<div class="board-member-item-picture">
		<?php foreach ($items[$i]->positions['board-member-picture'] as $field) : ?>
			<?php echo $field->display; ?>
		<?php endforeach; ?>
	</div>
	<?php endif; ?>
	<div class="board-member-item-description">
		<h2><?php echo $item->title; ?></h2>
		<?php if (isset($items[$i]->positions['description'])) : ?>
			<?php foreach ($items[$i]->positions['description'] as $field) : ?>
				<?php echo $field->display; ?>
			<?php endforeach; ?>
		<?php endif; ?>

	</div>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>

but the only value that displays is the $item->title but other from positions are not displaying. Instead i see a noticed on the frontend upon refresh:

Notice: Undefined variable: i in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/XXXXX/components/com_flexicontent/templates/board-member/category_items.php on line 28
which is where the "board-picture" is supposed to show up.

and
Notice: Undefined variable: i in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/XXXXX/components/com_flexicontent/templates/board-member/category_items.php on line 37
Which is where the description should display.

Am i am doing wrong? I'm clueless.

Any help would be very appreciated as i've been banging my head for a while now.
