Hi All,

I have a requirement where I need to add an extra input for categories in
admin.So, I have created a column in oxcategories table using sql script in
admin->service->tools

"alter table oxcategories add column test varchar(128);"  and updated the
DB views. I have also added the row in www/out/admin/category_main.tpl for
this field.

I have entered some test values in to the input field and saved the
contents for different categories.They all get saved and database tables
are also updated.

The problem I face is that I am unable to retrieve the value of this field.

I have used the below way to retrieve the value in
www/out/azure/tpl/widget/header/topcategories.tpl

" [{$ocont->oxcontents__test->value}] " which is pretty much similar to
getting the title value " [{$ocont->oxcontents__oxtitle->value}] ".

Please suggest me ways of how to get the value of this field.

Another issue of mine is that I have tried to create a similar extra field
in usergroups in admin.I did the same as above but cannot save the values
entered in field untill I specify the column name as " oxdesc ".Please
clarify why am I facing this unusual behavior in oxgroups.

Thanks & Regards,
Sai Chandra Sekhar.M
