Hi drewh01,
That's definitely possible, and you're going about it the right way. Did you add a getRecords() call to load the $film_list_page_controlsRecord variable at the top of the page?
// load record from 'site_general_information'
list($film_list_page_controlsRecords, $film_list_page_controlsMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'film_list_page_controls',
'where' => '', // load first record
'loadUploads' => true,
'allowSearch' => false,
'limit' => '1',
));
$film_list_page_controlsRecord = @$film_list_page_controlsRecords[0]; // get first record
if (!$film_list_page_controlsRecord) { dieWith404("film_list_page_controls record not found!"); } // show error message if no record found
Does that help? If not, please post the PHP source code for your page as an attachment.
All the best,
Chris
