Nikki_tcs How to display custom text field in a site thro visualforce
Hi,
I have a ideas site, and i would like to display a custom text field (Test_Tags__c) which i created in salesforce on the site.
Here is my apex controller for this particular peace.
public static string TestTeg() {
idea myidea = [select Test_Tags__c,Id from idea where Status <> null];
return myidea.Test_Tags__c ;
}
The above query returns the expected text output in eclipse.
Now i am just trying to display the above returned output on the site using my visualforce page, and in my visualforce page i wrote, (apart from rest of the page)
Test Tags : {!TestTeg}
Now i see the Test Tags heading in my site, but it doesn't display the above returned output (from apex controller). How can i make the output appear on my site? What am i missing here?
Thanks.
Have you coded the Getter method for "TestTeg" - you need to code the getter method to be able to read the value.
//Variable
String TestTeg;
// Getter method
public String getTestTeg()
{
return TestTeg;
}
//setter method
public void setTestTeg(String str)
{
TestTeg=str;
}
//
public static string TestTeg() {
idea myidea = [select Test_Tags__c,Id from idea where Status <> null];
TestTeg=(string)myidea.Test_Tags__c
return TestTeg;
}
Did this answer your question? If not, let me know what didn't work, or if so, please mark it solved.
Have you granted access to the field for your site USER.?
Also, your function should be
public static string getTestTeg() {
idea myidea = [select Test_Tags__c,Id from idea where Status <> null];
return myidea.Test_Tags__c ;
}

Hi Edwin,
I have made the Test_tags Field visible to site users in the profile, also changed the code to getTestTeg().
Also, when i try to acess my visualforce tab which is a direct link to the above page, i get visualforce errror on the tab and this one line is being dispalyed in the page : setTestTeg(NULL).
I ve tried the below code, when i do this code, it doesnt show any error, also its not displaying the required text , still the field on the page is blank like this. Test Tags :
String TestTeg;
public String getTestTeg() {
return TestTeg; }
public void setTestTeg(String str) {
TestTeg=str; }
public static string getTestTeg(String TestTeg) {
idea myidea = [select Test_Tags__c,Id from idea where Status <> null];
TestTeg = myidea.Test_Tags__c;
return TestTeg; }
Any clue?
Thanks.
Hi Ispita,
Even for this code it says Varibale TestTeg does not exist.
public String TestTeg;
public String getTestTeg() {
return TestTeg; }
public void setTestTeg(String str) {
TestTeg=str; }
public static string TestTeg() {
idea myidea = [select Test_Tags__c,Id from idea where Status <> null];
TestTeg=(string)myidea.Test_Tags__c;
return TestTeg; }
