Changing Templavoila field names


In the process of cleaning up some Templavoila Plus FCE, I created a new FCE template that will replace several others. To do so, I created some new field names to replace the old ones. (I noticed you can't change the name of a field after creating it).

For example, I had field_title_A for FCE A, field_title_B for FCE B, etc… Now I just have field_title in my new FCE template.

The problem is that if I change the FCE / Template Object for an existing content, the title field is now empty. It doesn't understand that field_title_A is now field_title.

I seriously doubt that there is a solution, but I still hope there is one.

Is there something I can do to tell TV to move the content of field_title_A to field_title or to tell it field_title_A is now field_title? Is there another way to achieve that?


If I'm not using some terms properly, please, feel free to edit.


Solution

  • no, there is no such support present yet. You could open a feature request for that, but I don't think I could work out a sollution in the next 2 years.
