  Using Z 1.2.4 and PM 0.4.2, created pubtype with a multicheckbox field based on a list created in Categories. The input form works fine. The output, however, shows the array code rather than the item.
  
  Array ( [10024] => Array ( [id] => 10024 [parent_id] => 10021 [is_locked] => 0 [is_leaf] => 0 [name] => Collaboration [value] => [sort_value] => 0 [display_name] => Array ( [en] => Collaboration ) [display_desc] => Array ( [en] => Collaboration ) [path] => /__SYSTEM__/Modules/PageMaster/lists/Topics/Collaboration [ipath] => /1/2/10001/10002/10021/10024 [status] => A [obj_status] => A [cr_date] => 2011-01-16 18:37:00 [cr_uid] => 2 [lu_date] => 2011-01-16 18:37:00 [lu_uid] => 2 [fullTitle] => Collaboration ) [10018] => Array ( [id] => 10018 [parent_id] => 10021 [is_locked] => 0 [is_leaf] => 0 [name] => Photography [value] => [sort_value] => 0 [display_name] => Array ( [en] => Photography ) [display_desc] => Array ( [en] => Photography ) [path] => /__SYSTEM__/Modules/PageMaster/lists/Topics/Photography [ipath] => /1/2/10001/10002/10021/10018 [status] => A [obj_status] => A [cr_date] => 2010-11-12 18:32:22 [cr_uid] => 2 [lu_date] => 2011-01-16 18:36:03 [lu_uid] => 2 [fullTitle] => Photography ) )
  
  
  How do I make it display the items selected rather than the array code? I've used pndebug to look for variables, but my coding skills...well...
  
  Thanks.

  Hey, I have just posted on pub categories too : I have used the following code for my purpose:
  
  

  Code

  <!--[if !empty($multicheckboxfield.10024)]--> <!--[pmarray array=$multicheckboxfield.10024.name]--><!--[/if]-->

  
  
  Replace "$multicheckboxfield" with your field variable and it will display the name of your category with id = 10024.
  Hope it helps.
  Philippe

  Thank you. That's a step in the right direction. It would work fine if it reflected a radiobox field or a select from dropdown field. Its a multicheckbox, so it needs to loop through the array and display all the checked boxes, not just the one I specify by id.
  
  That will certainly be a stretch for my coding skills, but I'll start playing.

  yes, in my case, I have successively tested one by one all the multiple chechboxes:
  
  

  Code

  <!--[if !empty($multicheckboxfield.10024)]--> <!--[pmarray array=$multicheckboxfield.10024.name]--><!--[/if]-->
  <!--[if !empty($multicheckboxfield.10025)]--> <!--[pmarray array=$multicheckboxfield.10025.name]--><!--[/if]-->
  <!--[if !empty($multicheckboxfield.10026)]--> <!--[pmarray array=$multicheckboxfield.10026.name]--><!--[/if]-->

  
  
  Give more explanations about your case.
  Philippe

  This also seems to work, and means I don't have to redo this snippet every time I add a new topic to my multicheckbox list
  :
  

  Code

  <!--[foreach from=$topics item='id']-->
      <!--[$id.name]-->::
      <!--[/foreach]-->

  The array is showing us the posibilities to display then maybe you can use.
  
  

  Code

  <!--[if !empty($multicheckboxfield)]--> <!--[$multicheckboxfield.id|pnvarprephtmldisplay]--><!--[/if]-->

  
  
  to display id number or
  
  

  Code

  <!--[if !empty($multicheckboxfield)]--> <!--[$multicheckboxfield.name|pnvarprephtmldisplay]--><!--[/if]-->

  
  
  to display name or better
  
  

  Code

  <!--[if !empty($multicheckboxfield)]--> 
   <a href="<!--[pnmodurl modname='PageMaster' type='user' tid=$core_tid filter=multicheckboxfield:eq:]--><!--[$multicheckboxfield.id]-->">
  <!--[$multicheckboxfield.name|pnvarprephtmldisplay]--></a><!--[/if]-->

  
  
  to create a link to display a list filtered by this cat.
  
  Hope this helps

  You can let Smarty parse dynamic values for your filter like:
  

  Code

  filter="multicheckboxfield:eq:`$multicheckboxfield.id`"

  
  without the need of split them appart ;)
