Hi,

I have problems with the setdisplayfields method in SilverStripe 3.0.0. It says that the method 'setdisplayfields' does not exist on 'GridField'. Is there anybody else that has experiend similar problems? I post my code here and hope some of you have an idea of what I'm doing wrong here...

class HomePage extends Page {
	public static $db = array(
	
	);
	
	public static $has_many = array(
		'HomePageSlides' => 'HomePageSlide' // link the slide items
	);
		
	function getCMSFields() {
		$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
		
		$gridfieldConfig = GridFieldConfig::create()->addComponents(
			new GridFieldToolbarHeader(),
            new GridFieldAddNewButton('toolbar-header-right'),
			new GridFieldSortableHeader(),
			new GridFieldDataColumns(),
			new GridFieldPaginator(15),
			new GridFieldEditButton(),
			new GridFieldDeleteAction(),
			new GridFieldDetailForm()
		);
		
		

		$gridfield = new GridField("HomePageSlides", "Slides", $this->HomePageSlides(), $gridfieldConfig);
		
		 $gridfield->setDisplayFields(array(
		 	'ID' => 'ID'
		 	));
		
		$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Slides', $gridfield);
		 
		return $fields;
  	}
}

class HomePage_Controller extends Page_Controller {

	public static $allowed_actions = array (
	);

	public function init() {
		parent::init();
	}
}

Hi Thomashv,

I was having the same issue with 'setFieldCasting'. It looks like the documentation on this needs to be updated because it seems that this has to be implemented differently now. I looked at the AssetAdmin.php in the cms/code/controllers/ folder for inspiration.

I would try this and see if it works:

$gridfield = new GridField("HomePageSlides", "Slides", $this->HomePageSlides(), $gridfieldConfig); 

$columns = $gridField->getConfig()->getComponentByType('GridFieldDataColumns');  //new line that needs to be added to your code

$columns->setDisplayFields(array(  //change $gridfield in your code to $columns
          'ID' => 'ID'
          )); 

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Jim

You can use the variable $summary_fields in your DataObject or something like this:

$gridColumns = new GridFieldDataColumns();
    $gridColumns->setDisplayFields(array(
      'ID' => 'ID',
      'Title' => 'Titel'
    ));
    
    $gridFieldConfig = GridFieldConfig::create()->addComponents(
      new GridFieldToolbarHeader(),
      new GridFieldAddNewButton('toolbar-header-right'),
      new GridFieldSortableHeader(),
      //new GridFieldDataColumns(),
      new GridFieldPaginator(10),
      new GridFieldEditButton(),
      new GridFieldDeleteAction(),
      new GridFieldDetailForm()
      $gridColumns
    );

$summary_fields doesn't seems to be working but Jim's solution does.

$columns = $listField->getConfig()->getComponentByType('GridFieldDataColumns');
$columns->setDisplayFields(array(
    'Name' => 'Name',
    'Prices' => 'Prices' 
));

'setDisplayFields' is a method of GridFieldDataColumns, not the GridField itself.
