Hi, I am slowly losing my hair with Seblod, I get a problem, spend hours looking through old post for Seblod2 to try to find an answer then eventually figure it out so I continue hoping it will all become easier eventually.

Anyway my problem is that I have a working form which when I use Seb_one displays OK in front end but has too many nested divs. When I try to use Barebones template or Simplesimon using getValue (‘field_name’) ?>, getName (‘field_name’) ?> or any other call to the database displays nothing at all (i used the correct field_name).
I know the template set up is correct as I have created a menu link to a single article and placed a random <h1>testing</h1> into both templates to test and it shows up fine in the front but i just dont see the seblod fields.

I followed this tutorial by James Morell to the letter to set up the SimpleSimon template http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPMnAbi1-8w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPMnAbi1-8w

Please help

Hi MarcT,

I advise you to use "seb minima" template for your case.

Hi, have you tried this format, be sure your php tags and semicolon are in place.

<?php echo $cck->get('field_name')->label;  ?>
<?php echo $cck->get('field_name')->value;  ?>

Thank you both for your advise. Using Minima did help but the problem was not the template. There were two reasons it wasn't working. The first is very annoying, i was using the wrong ' ' in the field name part of <code><?php getName (‘field_name’) ?></code> thanks to copy and paste.
Secondly and probably more importantly in the temporary menu item i had set up to a single article the intro text was set to hidden in settings. oops!

MarcT,

Normally, you don't need to modify the code of seblod template. You can have what you want by defining a custom variation.
If your problem is solved, please mark this thread as solved.

Mehdi.
