Exclude Views field from displaying and just print it in field template?

Question

I have a field (title) in my View that I want to print in another views field template, using:

print ($fields["title"]->content);

However, when I use the above code, the field now prints twice. So I tried to Exclude it from the display in Views, but then my above print stopped working. How can I exclude the field, but still print it somewhere else??

Thanks for the help

P.S. I am referring to Views fields, not Content Type fields.

Answer 1

Excluding the field from display empties the $field['name']->content, so that when the renderer gets to the default field template, there's nothing to print.

If you absolutely cannot achieve your intended result using tokens and Rewrite Output then I suggest you:

• Do as you have already done to print the title in a different field's template
• Create a field template for title that is empty
