Field caption & description template parameters

In the latest release (F2C Lite and Pro for Joomla 1.5 & 1.6) it is possible to add the Field caption and description in your article (template). The field values (output) are language aware meaning and depended on the language setting on save.

Template parameter syntax

The F2C field captions and descriptions can be 'called' per field using the following syntax. The description is the blue icon text from the submission field in the form.

{$< FIELDNAME >_CAPTION}
{$< FIELDNAME >_DESCRIPTION}

So if your field is called "accommodation_location" you can use:

{$ACCOMMODATION_LOCATION_CAPTION}
{$ACCOMMODATION_LOCATION_DESCRIPTION}

Language aware output in F2C Pro for Joomla 1.6

This only works in Joomla 1.6 as it has a language article setting

If you are using the possibility to translate your F2C submission form, the value of the template parameters will be depending on the language selected at the time of submitting the F2C article.

Form2Content no longer provides documentation for patTemplate use. All examples use Smarty templating! Old patTemplate templates are backwards compatible in Joomla 1.5 but new features have not been added.
