Hello,

Is there a way (with a module override) to show the custom fields of an event in the Upcomming events module? How do I place them in the override?

Hello Rachel

You will have to write code yourself to have the event custom fields displayed. What layout you are using to display upcoming events in the module? Let me know so that I can look at it and guide you with some code

Regards,

Tuan

Hi Tuan,

I'v tried to change the default.php from the mod_eb_events and renamed that.

Hi Rachel

You can use this syntax to display value of a custom field:

echo $row->field_speaker;
echo $row->field_name;

field_speaker, field_name is name of the event custom fields which you defined. Could you please try that?

Great. Remember to move that modified file to template override so that it won't be lost when you update to future releases of the extension
