This one has be baffled. I have a template with 2 channels tags. The second one displays related entries. But when I use related_categories_mode=“yes” there is one particular custom field that doesn’t work. It just display the tags instead of the data.

When I remove the related categories tag and switch dynamic to ‘no’, the data comes out fine.

All my other fields work fine.

This is just simple text input field. Nothing special.

Here is my code:

{exp:channel:entries channel="trip_type_pages" limit="1" status="open|Archived" disable="comments|trackbacks"}

     <h1>{title} </h1>

{/exp:channel:entries}


{exp:channel:entries channel="trips" dynamic="yes" related_categories_mode="yes" status="open" orderby="trip_dates" sort="asc" disable="comments|trackbacks"}

 {title}
 {trip_arrive}/{trip_depart}
 
                    
{/exp:channel:entries}

Here is the output:

Important Note: This parameter is intended for use only when you are using the channel tag within “single entry” pages. Single entry pages are ones that show only a single entry, specified by the ID number or URL Title in the URL.

can you tell the actual purpose of using related_categories_mode, if there is an alternative for it.

I think I am using it that way, aren’t I? That is point. I am displaying a page e.g /service-adventures I am displaying the contents of that page with the trip_type_pages channel tag, and then listing entries from another channel below. It works fine except that one text field.

Figured it out! There is a parameter I didn’t know about.

custom_fields=“yes”
