    Event Calendar - Added field not showing up? Link to this post

    18 June 2010 at 2:53am

    Hi, I added one field to the CalendarEvents.php which is "Summary".
    ind the DB array I put 'Summary' => 'Varchar(255)',
    and in the getCMSFields I put $f->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Main", new TextField("Summary","One Line Summary"), "Content");

    But in my CalendarEvents.ss file I have $Summary and nothing is showing up.
    I entered text in the admin for it.

    Any idea?

    The Events() control, despite the misleading name, actually returns CalendarDateTime objects, because Events can have many dates. You need to use the $Event accessor.. $Event.Summary

    This is all in the docs under "extending event calendar"..
