Title: Inculde custom field within new article
Post by: JasonK on June 27, 2008, 10:26:02 AM
Hello,

My site will contain Joomla 1.5 articles which are not reviews. i.e. regular blog postings.  If I mention an jreviewed content item within a posting, I would like to link to it and also pull out a custom field associated to the jreview content item. 

For linking, I was planning on just adding a URL link to the jreview posting.   Is there a better method?   

For pulling a custom field assoicated from the jreview content item - I do not know where to start.  Is this possible - can you suggest how?

Thanks

You would need to have a custom plugin developed for this so that you could add something like this to your article:

{jreviews field="jr_name"} or something similar and have the plugin query the database for the value. Unfortunately I don't have time to develop this but it should be simple enough to do for a developer.
