Object field content not displaying in the front-end

Hi.

I’m using an object field to enter meta data for a blog article – author, date published, etc. I’ve used the object field previously with complete success but, for some reason, it isn’t working this time and I can’t figure out why.

The blueprint works correctly and so I’m able to enter the relevant information in the panel…

Once entered and saved, the submitted info appears in the content file…

But the content doesn’t then render in the front-end. I can only think there’s something wrong with my template but I’ve followed exactly the same format as in the Kirby Docs and my previous successful uses of the object field. Is there something wrong with the names I’m using? The template section looks like this…

The ‘bannerhdl’ block displays fine but, with the meta section, all that shows is the “-min read” hardcoded text.

What am I missing? Please help!

Should work, I don’t see an error (but please never post code as screenshots but as code blocks for easy copy and pasting, thanks).

Thanks, Sonja. Firstly, I’ll remember to post code rather than images in future. :slight_smile:

I have just figured it out. The issue was my use of the name “meta”. I’ve changed it to “details” and all now works. I’m migrating from the MetaKnight plugin to one called just ‘Meta’. The sites where the object field works perfectly haven’t had that change yet. There must be something in the Meta plugin that I was conflicting with.

Problem solved but thanks for replying.
