We are using Glpi for tracking harware information.We want to create custom form fields out on coming defaults with glpi.This change will be in helpdesk.public.php.
Is there any idea about how can we do this?
You shouldn't go down that road. It would become a hard to mantain installation.
You can save a lot of problems using a well-mantained, community-supported (paid options are available too ;)), plugin like Fields:
http://plugins.glpi-project.org/#/plugin/field
Adding a new field to main form or too a new tab is quite easy this way.
According to the plugin info possible fields type are :
Header (title bloc)
Text (single line)
Text (multiple lines)
Number
Dropdown (always a tree dropdown)
Yes / No
Date
Date / Hour
Glpi User list
Maybe you could use the FormCreator plugin.

I am new with Skadate, which is a dating software build in PHP 5 and template engine Smarty. I need to add an extra field for user edit section.
Currently there is default user fields in the admin section. I need to add an extra field. e.g. Country : Country list
How can I accomplish this task?
To add new profile question you have to utilize admin panel. Just go to URL www.yoursitename.com/admin/users/profile-questions
On this page you will get options for add Sections and Profile questions.
Fill up the form and save using submit button.
Regarding your query, To add a question with answer as drop down or list, you need to add them with Answer type field as drop down.
Once you create new question if your site supports multiple language then you have to put corresponding value in yoursite.com/admin/settings/languages
FYI: new questions are stored under base section.
I'm using idatemedia's dating software so there is no smarty templates. It's pretty much all straight PHP and version 7.2. I'm able to add a custom field but since I know mysql I prefer to add it via php and insert the field into the table structure. Most new fields I add are not blob text fields. They are characters of around 1000.
I have been looking for a solution to display custom field tabs in the Joomla
front article edit page.
http://www.aixeena.org/extensions/aixeena-easy-cck
Aixeena Easy CCK
I installed the plugin of aixeena, two custom field tabs: the Extra content and Extra content 2 are displayed in the backend admin article edit page, which is great. But we also need to let regular edit their article and enter values in custom fields under those two tabs. Any idea how to achieve this?
I tried a couple of other sites posting the solution of adding custom fields in article, such as Rating region described in the site:
https://docs.joomla.org/Adding_custom_fields_to_the_article_component
I was not able to make the Rating tab displayed in the front end article edit page neither.
I tried the fieldattach, it does supports custom field tab ( which is the group name of custom field), the list field type only contains static values, we have to define fieldset and field type through xml file.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I just finished writing a couple pluginsto do this similar thing. I wrote my own plugin to add the extra fields - but it looks like the one you've already used is very similar.
I had a really hard time figuring out how to add the fields for frontend editing as well. But I finally figured it out.
First, you're going to need to copy the com_content form edit.php into a template override (/templates/your_template_name/html/com_content/form/edit.php).
In that file, add the extra fields you have. You'll need the name of the field that you put in the xml file for your plugin you already have. Add them right before/after the fields that are already in the file, that you want your fields to appear before/after. Example:
<!-- CUSTOM begin custom fields -->
<?php echo $this->form->renderField('video_url', 'attribs'); ?>
add all your fields in there - replacing 'video_url' with your own field name. The plugin you already have already saved these fields to the 'attribs' part of the article, so you can leave that there.
The plugin that I used to create the fields for the backend is a really simple one based off of this tutorial https://zunostudios.com/blog/development/203-how-to-add-custom-fields-to-articles-in-joomla
What I'd suggest is to go ahead and create that plugin too. Except in the zfields.php file, change "$app->isAdmin()" to "$app->isSite()" - make sure the xml files have the same names as your other plugin xml files, so they save to the same place, and you're done. The fields will show up on the frontend edit form now.
What I'd really recommend is to get rid of the Aixeena plugin, and just make that easy plugin using the tutorial above - it's super easy. When you make it, duplicate the "if ($app->isAdmin())" section, copy it right below it, and change "isAdmin" to "isSite" - and now you've got the entire thing, all your custom fields, both frontend and backend, all in one place. Now just do the edit.php template override, and you'll have them displayed in both the front and backend. I hope that helps - if you need I can upload more example code.
I want to change the way Drupal builds specific fields on a specific node edit/add form on my site. For example, when I use print drupal_render($form['textarea']); in my node--CONTENTTYPE--form.tpl.php file, I get the default Drupal render of the field widget. I want to modify the HTML markup of the field widget.
There are three ways I can think of that might solve this problem:
Using a forms equivalent of the theme_field() hook. This seems ideal, but after searching for the last few hours, I haven't found anything on this.
Building custom field widgets for every field type I'm using on that node. This is definitely not ideal and I have to believe there's an easy way to do this in Drupal from a theme point of view.
Manually build the HTML markup for the form and field in node--CONTENTTYPE--form.tpl.php with print $form['textarea']['und'][0]['title']; and the like.
Is there a hook in Drupal to do this, or must the code for every field I want to modify be manually generated?
I think the hooks you are looking for are hook_form_alter and hook_form_BASE_FORM_ID_alter. Refer to the Form API to know what you can set on the render array.
i'm building a website for a house builder and each house plot (k2 item) has a few extra fields associated with it such as 'price' and 'availability'.
i would like to display this extra field data elsewhere on the site perhaps in a table that lists 5-6 plots and displays their current price and availability.
the idea is to be able to change the price of a house in the extra fields section and then have this change reflected in other parts of the site that call on this extra field data.
i've read this article..
http://jurawa.com/notes/item/27-update-making-k2-more-like-a-true-cck-custom-admin-templates-and-calling-specific-extra-field-data
..which explains a process of displaying extra field data but i've not managed to get this to work. i also think that this method would only work if displaying extra field data while already inside the item that it relates to. i'm trying to display this extra field data around other parts of the site.
i'm trying to replicate something like the table that appears on this page (just above the map)
http://www.orionhomes.co.uk/development/brunswick-place
running the latest version of jooma and k2 and have full access to server and database.
hope someone can help..!
many thanks
I have used the Raxo All-In-One module to accomplish this in the past:
http://www.raxo.org/raxo-all-mode-k2.html
This, along with ability to insert a module in an article, would allow you to place the specific K2 content/fields wherever you need them and have them updated dynamically by K2.
Another option would be to create a new template for K2 and only output the extra fields in your item list. This would allow you to create the table view you are looking for.
There is a great plug-in for Joomla/K2 that does this for you at:
http://joomcar.net
It's called K2 Filter and Search Module and it will display a table with the extra fields as you have demonstrated in at:
http://www.orionhomes.co.uk/development/brunswick-place
You can definitely display those extra fields wherever you need them on the site.
This step-by-step tutorial may help you to create the extra fields.
Then you just need to enable the extra fields in your view and modify your template.
i have recently started to learn drupal 6. I dont have any previous experience with drupal.
I was asked to implement a page on existing drupal site with the following structure.
a sopping page which will have an thumbail size image with lable and a quantity text box. This pattern will repeat for 10 products. At the end of the page i should have a submit button which results in sending an email with product and quantity to dedicated email address.
If its just a form then i can use webform but the requirement is having an image for every product.
I am not sure how to implementn this...can someone guide me in the right direction please.
This is what i am trying to achieve(http://dontikurthi.com/sample.html)
thanks for the help in advance.
Cheers

For the image handling, I suggest ImageCache. If this is going to be a shop, use Ubercart. It's an extremely powerfull shop system with lots of functions and extensions.
It's hard to recommend a single way since Drupal offers many ways of doing it. I would go with CCK (let's you create your own content types with as many fields as you want) and/or Views (pulls data from many different areas of the database into viewable form, highly customizeable and on of the first modules to install together with CCK). Create a new content type with the help of CCK and create a view that displays this particular content type in a fashionable manner. That should get you pretty close to the image above.
When creating a form with webform, you add form components, and you can add "markup" type component: it describes itself as "Markup allows you to enter custom HTML or PHP logic into your form."
So, to add a picture above or below a form item, just add a markup and put the appropriate HTML in it.
eg <img src="http://localhost/picture.jpg " />
