XF 2.0 Display custom thread fields when browsing forum threads

[0ptima]

How can I display the custom thread fields when browsing forum threads? In this example, I have a custom thread field called PHP Version that must be filled in when creating a new thread. I would like this custom field to be shown when browsing the forum threads.

Don't think you can do that by default. Maybe you could do it by doing a template modification, but I wouldn't know how to do it.

As a suggestion, this addon let's you to do what you want to do.

I was able to add it by adding the following to the thread_list_macros template

<xf:if is="$thread.node_id == 5"> <xf:if is="{$thread.custom_fields.phpversion}"> PHP Version: {$thread.custom_fields.phpversion} </xf:if> </xf:if>

Now what we really need is a way to sort and search custom fields natively. (I know there's an addon that helps with that)

can you tell me where the RSS code is ? I'd like to explore this to see if I can get the custom fields added to the RSS feed

I was able to add it by adding the following to the thread_list_macros template

<xf:if is="$thread.node_id == 5"> <xf:if is="{$thread.custom_fields.phpversion}"> PHP Version: {$thread.custom_fields.phpversion} </xf:if> </xf:if>

Thanks for posting your solution ; for something I have in mind I'll also be wanting to display a custom field in the forum thread listing.
