extra field front-end editor default dynamic value was created by tex14
Hi

I have 3 extra fields (text fields type).
I need to put a dynamic value from the database in these textfields as default value.
in editform.php I don't see where to put the code.

maybe in plugins/k2.php ?

thanks

Hi. You can go and edit these extra fields. There you can define default values.

Go to K2 administration and click extra fields. There you will see all defined extra fields. If you edit one you will see that there is a "default value" field.

of course but I want to put a result from a mysql query and this default value has to be in the frontend submit form.
So I need to write the query in a php file and I dont see where to write this code in itemform.php

You can't do this with extra fields. Since you are a programmer you need to write a K2 plugin. You can get started by taking a look at the example K2 plugin github.com/joomlaworks/example-k2-plugin/.
