TOPIC: 2 columns for extra fields

2 columns for extra fields 10 months, 3 weeks ago #126724

Eduardo ( User ) OFFLINE Junior Boarder Posts: 37	Hello all ! If you could help me with this problem I'd be really grateful. As the title says, I want to show the extra fields of an item with 2 columns as opposed to the default one. This is probably very simple, but for a non-coder, how should I do this? Thanks for your time.

If you are working in the item view, you probably would go to the section where extra fields are displayed
(search for 
and inside the foreach loop add the table rows and table columns to be generated as k2 loops thru the extra fields
If you are working in the category view edit category_item.php where there is a similar foreach loop
ALL of this would best be done in a K2 template (override)
See documentation - tips at the top for info on this
There is also a very good tutorial at OsTraining.com for K2 templating

Eduardo ( User ) OFFLINE Junior Boarder Posts: 37	Hi William thanks. I'm using Joomla 2.5.4 and K2 2.5.7 My site is in beta at : www.sipi.com.sv/index.php/es/component/k...f%C3%A9-el-arco.html If you check out that article, the extra fields appear where it says: Informacion Adicional Essentially, I would like that list of 13 fields broken up into 7 on the left, 6 on the left, thus 2 columns.

Hello Mr. William, thank you for your support, but after some attempts I failed to get this work, all I get is a single column with duplicate data from extra fileds (2x same data).

Can you please help me to code this table? looks easy but not for me since I'm not a coder/programmer..

thank you very much!

<?php foreach ($this->item->extra_fields as $key=>$extraField): ?>
                 <?php if($extraField->value != ''): ?>
                      <li class="<?php echo ($key%2) ? "odd" : "even"; ?> type<?php echo ucfirst($extraField->type); ?> group<?php echo $extraField->group; ?>">
                          <?php if($extraField->type == 'header'): ?>
                         <h4 class="itemExtraFieldsHeader"><?php echo $extraField->name; ?></h4>
                           <?php else: ?>
                            <span class="itemExtraFieldsLabel"><?php echo $extraField->name; ?>:</span>
                               <span class="itemExtraFieldsValue"><?php echo $extraField->value; ?></span>
                               <?php endif; ?>
                   </li>
 
                   <?php endif; ?>
 
                       <?php endforeach; ?>
