- BLOB/TEXT column ‘custom_10’ can’t have a default value

You need to remove the DEFAULT '' from the end of the query to get rid of the error. So if you have a default value set for that column in phpMyAdmin, clear it before saving the changes.

Thank you Bloke. The Dafault entry was set to As defined from its drop down. When I changed it to None everything worked.

I guess this means for each custom text field I have on the Write tab I’ll have to edit its entry in PHPMyAdmin.

One more quick question. If I wanted to style a custom field I’ve created with glz_custom _fields (such as increasing its width and height) is there an easy way to do so with CSS?

Install the bot_wtc plugin. It allows you to assign each custom field a CSS class.

Hi Gerhard

I donated earlier today, any chance you can send me the link to download?

Thanks,
Mats

Been looking through this thread to find out how to find the value of a select type of custom field – say for example we have select options One, Two and Three within a custom field named Content_type.

How to display content if the value ==Three? Something like this:

<txp:if_custom_field name="Content_type{Three}"> 
	<div class="image"><txp:body /></div>
	</txp:if_custom_field>

<txp:if_custom_field name="Content_type" value="Three"> 
	<div class="image"><txp:body /></div>
</txp:if_custom_field>

I can’t remember using the select field for something right now, but I think this is how the if_custom_field tag works.

Oh boy I completely forgot about the value="" check in the if_custom_field tag….!!

Just a suggestion for an improvement:

Although you can override the default install directory (/plugins) for certain glz_custom_fields files (I use /textpattern/glz_custom_fields as I like to keep things out of the root directory as much as possible) the plugin still looks for some of it’s files within the default /plugins folder.

Need a way to override that really, at the moment I have to manually edit the plugin code to point to my preferred directory.

Cheers,
Phil

I’m using this custom script to input categories as options on a select menu. How do I change it to a multi-select?

<?php
function list_clients($custom_field, $custom_id, $custom_value) {
    $categories = array();
    $query = safe_rows('name, title', 'txp_category', 'parent like "client"');
    foreach ($query as $category)
        $categories[$category['title']] = $category['title'];
    return glz_selectInput($custom_field, $custom_id, $categories, $custom_value, "");
}
?>

wow – I’ve amazed myself (nearly, sort of)

I can’t get your example to work, but using the my_images.php, I added a, “1” after the default value – as this changes it from a select to a multi select from what I can gather from the code.

This was the original my_images.php code:

  return glz_selectInput($custom_field, $custom_id, $images, $custom_value, "2");

and I changed it to this – and now its a multiselect

return glz_selectInput($custom_field, $custom_id, $images, $custom_value, "2", "1");

Hope that helps… but its probably worth getting this checked

}
?>

This is my script to grab all categories that have parent “XXX” and make a multi-select custom field out of them

<?php
function my_parents_cats($custom_field, $custom_id, $custom_value) {
  $titles = array();
  $query = safe_rows('name, title', 'txp_category', "parent like 'XXX' AND type like 'article'");
  $titles[] = '&nbsp;';
  foreach ($query as $title) 
    $titles[$title['name']] = $title['title'];
  return glz_selectInput($custom_field, $custom_id, $titles, $custom_value, "1", true);
}
?>
