Is it possible to show the alias in Items List? was created by pipedream

Hi, I'm using FC v3 BETA5a in Joomla 3.4.1.

I tried to add the "alias" in the Custom Fields for Items List field of the Configuration, but nothing changes.

Please let me know if is it possible to show the alias in the Items List, thank you.

Test this:
Edit field: plugins/flexicontent_fields/coreprops/coreprops.php
and replace fucntion: onDisplayFieldValue
with:

Code:

// Method to create field's HTML display for frontend views
	public function onDisplayFieldValue(&$field, $item, $values=null, $prop='display')
	{
		if ( !in_array($field->field_type, self::$field_types) ) return;
		
		static $all_langs = null;
		
		$props_type = $field->parameters->get('props_type');
		if ($props_type == 'language')
		{
			if ($all_langs===null) {
				$all_langs= FLEXIUtilities::getLanguages($hash='code');
			}
			$lang_data = $all_langs->{$item->language};
			
			$field->{$prop} = @$lang_data->title_native ? $lang_data->title_native : $lang_data->name;
		}
		
		else if ($props_type == 'alias') {
			$field->{$prop} = $item->alias;
		}
	}

then Create a CORE property field with type "ALIAS", assign it to the desired content types, and place it in a field position of the appropriate CATEGORY Layout

(we will commit change for v3 BETA6)

A shorter solutions is to do inside your template:

Code:

echo  $item->alias;

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
-- Add your voice to the FLEXIcontent JED listing with a 5-star...

I just wanted it to be listed in the backoffice, so adding "alias" to the Custom Fields for Items List field in the Configuration was enough for me.
