Hi there

You can add new extrafield to achieve this editing this file , /templates/ja_moviemax/etc/extrafields/movie.xml

For example to add a description field you can add

<field
                name="jcontent_description"
                type="text"
                label="TPL_EX_CONTENT_DECRIPTION_LABEL"
                description="TPL_EX_CONTENT_DESCRIPTION_DESC"
                ></field>

and then modify this file /templates/ja_moviemax/html/com_content/article/movie.php to add your new extrafields

You can take a look at THIS TUTORIAL to learn how to add estrafields

Best regards

Hi

What you are asking can be done adding a new position as showed by my image below

This would require a custom-work and would be not so easy to do so, My opinion is that the better option is to use the extrafields and add new fields

Hi Pavit,
thanks, I’ll follow your initial suggestion – don’t want too much customisation.

thanks for your help!
