[Solved] Calling specific fields in template

Hi,
I'm using the following code to load the first image of a slideshow (image field with multiple values) in the item.php

<img src="<?php echo $this->fields->{'display_large_src'} ?>" alt="<?php echo $item->title; ?>" />

It works a treat but when I use it in category_items.php (with very minor changes) it doesn't work

<img data-original="<?php echo $this->fields->{'display_medium_src'} ?>" alt="<?php echo $item->title; ?>" />

I added the field to a renderonly position. Unfortunately I'm not a PHP programmer and would appreciate suggestions for what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks,
Agata

Hello

there is no:
$this->fields

in category view, remember you have many items and not only one item

you should use INSIDE the item loop:

$item->fields->{'display_medium_src'}


where $item is the item variable created by the loop displaying the items

am I in the ballpark?

Hello

there must be a loop there already !! don't place a new loop inside existing loop


it should be like this


NOTE this or similar should exist already:

Oh dear, I was editing the wrong file (my brain isn't working too well 7.5 hours into an 8 hour day ), thanks a lot, it works!
