I'm having trouble getting this error resolved:

.... is using the deprecated {child:url_title} tag. Please use Playa’s var_prefix parameter instead

This is my code:

{exp:playa:parents field="artist-relationship-playa" orderby="artworks-order" sort="asc"}
        {if "{show-on-website}" == "y"}
            <a href="{site_url}artists/{child:url_title}/{url_title}">{embed="artists/_artist-artworks-embed" entry_id="{entry_id}"}</a>
        {/if}
{/exp:playa:parents}

This code is inside a channel tag pair.

What should I change about this code to make is work?

  • Which version are you using? 4.4 had a lot of bug, 4.4.1 has just been released

  • I'm using 4.4. Will upgrade now. However my errors have nothing to do with this. It's just my lack of knowledge.

    This is the code that got it to work: {exp:playa:parents field="artist-relationship-playa" orderby="artworks-order" sort="asc" var_prefix="artworks"} {if "{artworks:show-on-website}" == "y"} <a href="{site_url}artists/{url_title}/{artworks:url_title}">...</a> {/if} {/exp:playa:parents} Just so that others want to know how it works. When using var_prefix, all variables inside that playa tag pair are rendered as if they where not. Only if you prefix your variable with your var_prefix value, will it be rendered as it would previously... get it :)

Ah, I get how it works now. This is the code that got it to work:

{exp:playa:parents field="artist-relationship-playa" orderby="artworks-order" sort="asc" var_prefix="artworks"}
      {if "{artworks:show-on-website}" == "y"}
         <a href="{site_url}artists/{url_title}/{artworks:url_title}">...</a>
      {/if}
{/exp:playa:parents}

Just so that others want to know how it works. When using var_prefix, all variables inside that playa tag pair are rendered as if they where not. Only if you prefix your variable with your var_prefix value, will it be rendered as it would previously... get it :)
