Description
ez_field_value() is a Twig helper which returns a Content item's field value in the current language.
This can be useful when you don't want to use ez_render_field and manage the rendering by yourself.
If the current language cannot be found as a translation for content, the main language will be used. This behavior is identical when forcing a language using forcedLanguage.
Prototype and Arguments
ez_field_value( eZ\Publish\Core\Repository\Values\Content\Content content, string fieldDefIdentifier[, string forcedLanguage] )
| Argument name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
content | eZ\Publish\Core\Repository\Values\Content\Content | Content object the field referred to with fieldDefIdentifier belongs to. |
fieldDefIdentifier | string | Identifier of the field we want to get the value from. |
forcedLanguage | string | Locale we want the content name translation in (e.g. "fre-FR"). Null by default (takes current locale) |

To check the existence of a specific field you can use Twig in eZ Platform:
{% if content.fields.cool_field is defined %}This content has a cool_field field!
{% else %}
This content does NOT have a cool_field field!
{% endif %}
Kudos to Edi Modric for the tip, I was wasting time with this.
