Hi,
I want to create a new parameter in my template to display social icons in Joomla articles. I have added the parameter to my templateDetails.xml file like that:
			<fieldset name="my_params" label="MY_PARAMS_FEATURES">

				

				<field name="CONTENT_SOCIAL_ICONS" type="radio" class="btn-group" default="0" description="If you enable this option, social share buttons (Facebook, Twitter, Google+) will be displayed in the Joomla articles." label="Social Share for Articles">

					<option value="0">JNO</option>

					<option value="1">JYES</option>

				</field>

						

			</fieldset>


And in /html/com_content/article/default.php I have added this at the top of the page:
$content_social = ($this->params->get("CONTENT_SOCIAL_ICONS",1));


And this:
<?php if ($content_social) : ?>

	<div class="social-share">

		<span>social share button is here</span>

	</div>

<?php endif; ?>


But when I change the parameter from my Template Manager it doesn't effect whether to display or not. How can I get the template parameter in the Joomla article?

Thanks

Hi Hasan,

For what you expect, we call it custom fields in T3. You can add custom fields for articles, for form like menu or for module. Normally, it has 4 steps:

1. Create custom field group
2. Define custom fields in the group
3. Style the custom fields
4. Use the custom fields.

We have very detail documentation for this, please take a look, it would help you a lot.

1. Documentation: http://t3-framework.org/documentation/extend-com-content#add-extra-fields
2. Blog tutorial: http://www.joomlart.com/tutorials/joomla-tutorials/adding-joomla-custom-fields-in-article-with-t3-framework
3. Live demo: http://www.joomlart.com/user-site-showcase

Regards.
