Krikor you are the boss!

Thank you for your effort. Finally made what I want!

Your post is most helpful, I do have a question (I am not a coder :-)

What does this line of the code do...
<?php if($this->item->params->get('itemExtraFields') && count($this->item->extra_fields)): ?>

As I understand that this line tells the script to display whatever comes next if the extra field has a value
<?php if(isset($this->item->extraFields->EXTRAFIELDALIASHERE->value)): ?>

The first line checks whether that k2 item has extra fields, i.e its parent category has a group assigned to it and this group has children extra fields, and also checks whether K2 is configured to display extra fields on the item view page.

As you said, this is to display whatever comes next, mainly what comes next are extra fields.

Thanks Mohamed,

Based on what you said, the first line of code is not really needed, because if the item does not have Extra Fields assigned to it, it will just return/show nothing...correct?

Plus the display Extra Field parameter (based on category or item settings) determines if the item will display the extra fields. Does the first line of code have the ability to supersede the Extra Field parameter...is that the case?

I ask all of this (please remember, I am not a coder) because I want to create Item Template Overrides that will either

1) Display required extra field data (example: primary image), in that case, I would use
<img src="
<?php echo $this->item->extraFields->IMAGE1ALIAS->value; ?>
" />

2) Display non-required extra field data (example: secondary image), in that case, I would use
<?php if(isset($this->item->extraFields->IMAGE2ALIAS->value)): ?>
<img src="
<?php echo $this->item->extraFields->IMAGE2ALIAS->value; ?>
" />
<?php endif; ?>


So for my example,

A) Is my logic and code good/ideal?
B) Do I not need to include the following code, if I have the K2 item or category Extra Field parameter set to show?
<?php if($this->item->params->get('itemExtraFields') && count($this->item->extra_fields)): ?>
