Hello,

I am trying to add a views field with 'group multiple values' enabled, but these fields will not show up when I try to fetch the field values of that view.
I mean the field does not show up when I use drupal_set_message('<pre>' . var_export($vars['content'][0], true) . '</pre>'); in theme_preprocess_ddblock_cycle_block_content() in template.php.

For the description field I wanted to have a cck field of 3 textfields so I can easily limit the amount of rows displayed on the slider. I could just use a textarea but that would set the number of rows to unlimited.

Can you help me with this?
Thanks.
Danny

The field does show up when I disable 'group multiple values', but then it only shows the first value, which is not the point.

When I enable 'group multiple values' it shows up correctly in the views preview though.

I temporary fixed it by putting 3 text fields in one fieldgroup and then tweaking the template.php and the .tpl file bigtime.

The problem is that you're looking for the raw data in the query results, but some fields (like items with group multiple values) are retrieved via a secondary query.

You probably should be looking at $view->style_plugin->rendered_fields instead.
