Hi,
As said in title i want to get a list field value (used in search) and use it in description (and eventually title but i think it is not possible) of my list/search.
Is there a way to do that.
Thx.
THx for answer but i don't see the link with my question ...
I will write again my problem and try to be more clear :
I just want to display in list description a field value (here the author name).
With this i could have a title like "Articles written by Bob"
Where bob is value from my field created by ...
You can make "Articles written by" a lsit table header or include a new text field with "Articles written by" as value to the same results column as Bob field
lol ... great misunderstand ... think simple :)
I do it again.
I have a list/search filtered on an author.
I just want to display the name of the author in Description of the list ...
Description is the text displayed at top of the list under the title (not a field or an header of the list) !
Hi,
description is output directly in the view, so one way to do it would be to do a output template override (
http://docs.joomla.org/Understanding_Output_Overrides ) for views/list/default.php template and chage the aprt where description is output - you could get author id from search url and then do a query to find users name.
Thx for help.
I thought about that but it will override all outputs for this views and this not what i want.
Perhaps i should also clear the description and use a field at top of search and put in it some HTML with my description and some code to get another field value.
But how can i do that in a list field ?
I would also really need that to make custom buttons with custom links and add a url var at end of it ...
Some method ?
Ok finally i've done it like Klass said (with template view override).
