problem with "How to create a new FLEXIcontent item or update an existing item by calling the FLEXIcontent item model in custom code"

$data['id']

$data['id'] = $item_ID;

// 444 is the id of the item that you want to load, or set it to zero for new item $item_ID = 444; if ($item_ID) { // EITHER Load existing item into the ITEM model $item = $item_model->getItem($item_ID, $check_view_access=false, $no_cache=true, $force_version=0); // You can use $item to get existing values if (!$item) die('item '.$item_ID.' not found'); // IMPORTANT: Get existing field values for the item $items = array($item); $items_custom_values = FlexicontentFields::getCustomFieldValues($items, 'item'); $data['custom'] = reset($items_custom_values); // Get data of first item // Indicate which item to update $data['id'] = $item_ID; } else { // OR indicate a new item will be created $data['id'] = 0; }
