add generated column to table view with a hooks file?

[cnaome]

Hello

Is it possible to generate an additional colomn in the table view using a hooks file?

I added code to the init() function. I can see the column but there is no data (in any of the columns...) My SQL code gives a result in the database.

I added my new column to:

$options->QueryFieldsTV
$options->ColFieldName
$options->ColNumber
$options->ColWidth

I can do this with a view but I wonder if it possible with a hooks file? If so, what are the steps to make it happen?

Thanks!

Hi,

from my knowledge, you need to adjust the template used to generate the TV, otherwise you will be able to add a column, but no data will be displayed.
Maybe you can explain what you try to achieve. Why cant you just add a field to the table?
