News Module - Field Definition - Quick Question

Post by sage12 »

I'm using CMSMS 1.115 and just created a field definition within News that is called "extrasummary". The field type is Text Area. I am now trying to display the field defnintion in a Summary Template but it keeps showing up as a blank space.

Here is the code I am using in my Summary Template...

{$entry->fieldsbyname.extrasummary->value}

Am I missing something ? I read other posts in the forum and I believe that this should work. Please help!

You could try <pre>{$entry|print_r}</pre> to see what options are available to you. It may have changed in the 5 years since your version was released, so we'll just be guessing.

Time to upgrade.
