[Solved] Custom Fields in News Module
Posted: Fri Jan 11, 2008 11:49 am
Hi again,
Using the news module I have added some custom fields to the news module. I am now looking to make them appear on the front end.
I have added a few news items with the fields filled in, I assume the reason they aren't appearing is because I have to edit the news template to add the fields in. How do I go about this?
The field I want to enter in is called: AuthorEmail
I assume that i could just take a section of the code from the template, duplicate it and then just change the names to AuthorEmail, but so far I am having trouble getting it correct, or even finding any documentation on this. I assume the code would be along the lines of:
but as I say, I'm not quit there yet...
Thanks in advance.
Richard
