The metadata has to be activated at least once before you can retrieve it in Live mode.
Can you reproduce this issue with newly created content or with some kind of imported content? If this happens all the time, could you please report it as a bug in JIRA with the version of Jahia being used? Thanks, Khue -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Richard Gate Sent: vendredi, 24. août 2007 12:03 To: Any questions regarding template development and/or about the taglibsextension Subject: Re: [template_list] Additional meta data fields While we're on the subject. How can I access the meta-data of a container field from live? JahiaField creatorField = productReviewContainer.getContentContainer().getMetadataAsJahiaField(CoreMet adataConstant.CREATOR, jParams); This code currently returns null as the EntryState object used later on can't be resolved with the LoadRequest set to live. Is there another method I can use? Thanks, Richard.
