Extra fields of related items not available! was created by Mohamed Abdelaziz
Hi All,
More than a year ago, I wrote a small tutorial for how to make it possible to display extra fields of related items in the related items section, by hacking components/com_k2/models/itemlist.php, you can read it here: www.joomreem.com/joomla-developer-s-tips-and-tricks/item/51-how-to-show-extra-fields-for-k2-related-items.html
Then, I received a suggestion to convert this hack into a plugin, which is very interesting to me, after I started to develop this plugin, I found it is very easy to include this feature in core K2, without any more plugins.
I will be happy if K2 developers agreed to include this small hack in a coming release, just in case K2 community needs it.
The simple solution is just to modify components/com_k2/models/item.php, replace the below code, line ~181:
With the following:
So, it is just ORing $view == 'relatedByTag' to allow getting extra fields of related items.

if (($view == 'item' && $item->params->get('itemExtraFields')) || ($view == 'itemlist' && ($task == '' || $task == 'category') && $item->params->get('catItemExtraFields')) || ($view == 'itemlist' && $task == 'tag' && $item->params->get('tagItemExtraFields')) || ($view == 'itemlist' && ($task == 'search' || $task == 'date') && $item->params->get('genericItemExtraFields')))
{
$item->extra_fields = $this->getItemExtraFields($item->extra_fields, $item);
}With the following:
//Extra fields
if ((($view == 'item' || $view == 'relatedByTag') && $item->params->get('itemExtraFields')) || ($view == 'itemlist' && ($task == '' || $task == 'category') && $item->params->get('catItemExtraFields')) || ($view == 'itemlist' && $task == 'tag' && $item->params->get('tagItemExtraFields')) || ($view == 'itemlist' && ($task == 'search' || $task == 'date') && $item->params->get('genericItemExtraFields')))
{
$item->extra_fields = $this->getItemExtraFields($item->extra_fields, $item);
