[SOLVED] update item with custom field was created by fopo-web

Hi, I read in an own plugin a flexicontent item. f.e.:

Code:

$itemmodel_name = FLEXI_J16GE ? 'FlexicontentModelItem' : 'FlexicontentModelItems';
$itemmodel = new $itemmodel_name();
$item = $itemmodel->getItem($id, $check_view_access=true);
$items = array(&$item);
FlexicontentFields::getFields($items);
FlexicontentFields::getFieldDisplay($item, 'myfield');
$value = $item->fields['myfield']->display;

How can I modify the value of "myfield" and how can I save the item after this?

regards,

Frank

Hi,

I have written a Joomla Plugin for der Joomla Rest Extension. I want to show and modify items in a android app. The reading of my items works (GET), but If I want modify an item I will get the error above.

My code:

Code:

<?php

// No direct access.
defined('_JEXEC') or die;

jimport('joomla.application.component.model');
require_once (JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR.DS.'components/com_flexicontent/defineconstants.php');

require_once(JPATH_SITE.DS."components/com_flexicontent/classes/flexicontent.helper.php");
require_once(JPATH_SITE.DS."components/com_flexicontent/classes/flexicontent.categories.php");
require_once(JPATH_SITE.DS."components/com_flexicontent/classes/flexicontent.fields.php");
require_once(JPATH_SITE.DS."components/com_flexicontent/classes/flexicontent.acl.php");
require_once(JPATH_SITE.DS."components/com_flexicontent/helpers/permission.php");
require_once(JPATH_SITE.DS."components/com_flexicontent/helpers/route.php");
require_once(JPATH_SITE.DS."components/com_content/helpers/route.php");

JTable::addIncludePath(JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR.DS.'components'.DS.'com_flexicontent'.DS.'tables');


class SnowfunApiResourceTest extends ApiResource
{
    public function get() {
		...
	}

    public function post()
    {
		$app = JFactory::getApplication();
		$tmp = $app->input->get('param', '', 'STRING');
		
		$area = json_decode($tmp);		
		
		require_once(JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR.DS.'components'.DS.'com_flexicontent'.DS.'models'.DS.'item.php');
		$itemmodel = new FlexicontentModelItem();
		$item = $itemmodel->getItem($area->id);
			
		$item['custom']['myfield'] = $area->fieldValue;
		$itemmodel->store($item);

        $this->plugin->setResponse( $item );
    }
}

I have no idea.

regards,

Frank

Is it possible that this documention not work for existing items? There is no method "load" in FlexicontentModelItem. I can use getItem, but I get an error on store the item, because the item is an object and not an array.
