Display Course Object Fields on Outline Page

If you go to admin -> course -> objects -> manage fields, you can add a description field which will be shown on all course object configurations.

For now, you would then have to use the same theme functions in #2277331: Display Course Object Fields on Outline Page for them to appear in the list.

In the future there will be a view mode for course objects in the outline, so the theme override will not be necessary.

Hi,

Try this

    $entity = entity_load_single('course_object', $object->getId());
    $custom_field = field_view_field('course_object', $entity, 'field_my_custom_field');
    $html = drupal_render($custom_field);

Use entity_view for item outlines.

Hi;
Thanks a lot for your great job on this module;
I've applied this path and am having a "undefined index" error on this line:
$co = entity_load_single('course_object', $object->getid());
return drupal_render(entity_view('course_object', array($co)));

Also, I think it will be more efficient to use a field on the content type used as course object instead of the entity?
for example, use the body field of the content type since the course creator almost always fill it?

Thanks again.

This patch is old so it may need some more testing.

This is for per-course object fields - when you want different values for a field for each course object, like an "estimated time to complete" for each step. Or, if you wanted a custom image to appear per object, things like that.

Do we have a new version of the patch?

I was able to get field to show up using your post #3 above. Is it possible to achieve something similar with field from the object node instead?
Let's say I have a content type "document" set as a "course content" that has a field "description".
How can I alter this

    $entity = entity_load_single('course_object', $object->getId());
    $custom_field = field_view_field('course_object', $entity, 'field_my_custom_field');
    $html = drupal_render($custom_field);

to display the "description" field teaser in the course outline?

Committed.

Course objects use entity view now.
