[correct fieldname] create a personal field problem with xml was created by tghpow

Hi all,

after an internship in a web agency who's work with Joomla , i'm trying to better understand how FLEXIcontent work.
So, to my personal site, i need to create a little field.
nothing huge, just a way to practice, with fun :roll:

So, my problem is with the file.xml.
I explain:

this is my code:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<extension type="plugin" version="1.6" group="flexicontent_fields" method="upgrade">
	<name>FLEXIcontent - avancement_project</name>
	<author>Thibault CHAZOTTES</author>
	<creationDate>september 2013</creationDate>
	<authorUrl>www.thibault-chazottes.fr</authorUrl>
	<version>1.0</version>
	<description>FLEXI_FIELD_AVANCEMENT_PROJECT</description>
	<files>
		<filename plugin="avancement_project">avancement_project.php</filename>
	</files>
	<config>
	
	<fields name="attribs">
		<fieldset name="basic">
			<field name="display_label" type="radio" default="1" label="FLEXI_FIELD_DISPLAY_LABEL" description="FLEXI_FIELD_DISPLAY_LABEL_DESC">
				<option value="0">FLEXI_NO</option>
				<option value="1">FLEXI_YES</option>
			</field>
		</fieldset>
		<fieldset name="style">
			<field name="style_css" type="list" default="0" label="FLEXI_FIELD_AVANCEMENT_PROJECT_STYLE_CSS" description="FLEXI_FIELD_AVANCEMENT_PROJECT_STYLE_CSS_DESC" >
				<option value="0">FLEXI_FIELD_AVANCEMENT_PROJECT_GREEN</option>
				<option value="1">FLEXI_FIELD_AVANCEMENT_PROJECT_BLUE</option>
				<option value="1">FLEXI_FIELD_AVANCEMENT_PROJECT_RED</option>
				<option value="1">FLEXI_FIELD_AVANCEMENT_PROJECT_YELLOW</option>
				<option value="1">FLEXI_FIELD_AVANCEMENT_PROJECT_ORANGE</option>
			</field>
		</fieldset>
	</fields>
	</config>
	
	<languages>
		<language tag="fr-FR">fr-FR.plg_flexicontent_fields_avancement_project.ini</language>
	</languages>
</extension>

But the resultat is:

As you can see, the fieldset "style" doesn't appear...
What's the problem?
I watch other field contents like "text", "image"...etc but i dont see what's the problem..

My file.php is empty for the moment...coïncidence?

I tried to solve the problem by mylsef, but i'm not very comfortable with the internal structure of FLEXIcontent.

Thanks for your help

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?

Hello,

When i said my field.php is empty, but i meant functions are empty (displayOnField...etc), but not the whole file^^

Because i start field's development, i wanted to write lines after the others, to understand the system.

it's ok, i forgot to correct the name of the second fieldset.
So it's <fieldset name="group-nameOfMyField" > and not <fieldset name="group-text">.

Thanks, but now i have an other problem.
In the function onDisplayField, my variable $field must have many parameters, but my $field->parameters is empty (exept the display_label)..

Do you know why? And mainly, how can i have these params?

Hello

try duplicating a field that is easier to make replacements

e.g. weblink field

then do case-sensitive replacement of
'weblink' with 'myfieldname'
in both .xml and .php files
(also remember to rename the filed)

then do a case-insensitive search of 'weblink' to see what else exists

yeh, i copied the field "text".
I modify text by "avancement_project" (name of my field).

I can manipulate the field, because, recently, i change the function OnDisplayValue and it's work. I will re-copy a field this night to try but... i would like to understand^^
