Finding value of custom field by custom_field_id and item_id was created by Usop Wilcha

Hi K2 experts,

To search and get title of K2 item, I'm halfway until here

if ($option=="com_k2" && $view=="item") {
    $item_id = $jinput->getInt('id');
    JTable::addIncludePath(JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_k2/tables');
    $item = JTable::getInstance('K2Item', 'Table', array());
    $item->load($item_id);

    $title =  $item->title;
}

How can I find the value of custom field by custom_field_id and item_id ?

Thanks

Hello there Danny,
I will need some context. Where do you want this data shown?
Custom view, template, admin view?

Front-end model of K2, a custom extension?
If it is the same item then you don't need any of this code, you can find the value based on the field's alias.

Not really

I'm building a directory type website

I'm embedding external form module in the K2 field, so that every items has their own form

This sample link is not built with K2, but it has the same objective that i need

Tour code form field will be the value from the custom fields, now, the problem is how to pick up the value into our form fields,

Hope i made myself a clear explanation here :)

Still you don't need this code. It's a bit of an overkill. You can do this within the item.php file (less queries)

You can print the value of a specific field like this
