Displaying More Dublin Fields on Item Pages

Hello Curatescape community,

My Curatescape digital archive is nearly finished! I am putting on the final touches now. One thing that I’ve been wanting to figure out how to do for a very long time (and I anticipate that it’s simple but I just can’t seem to figure out what I need to do) is adding more Dublin Core fields to the Item pages. For instance, I am using Date, Format, Language, and Coverage for each of my items, and am wanting to display that information on my live Item pages.

In the below-provided screenshot, I can see where I need to add new code to make this happen. But I can’t find any documentation (on Curatescape’s forum or on Omeka’s forum) on what functions to call for each of these fields that I am interested in displaying. If my hunch is correct – that there is a list of Dublin Core Item field functions that I can insert into the appropriate spaces in order to call them on Item pages, could someone point me to that resource?

Thanks very much.

The functions that are prefixed with rl_ are theme-level functions that are defined in the custom.php file for the theme.

You can find the Omeka developer documentation here and in particular you’ll probably want to check out the metadata() function.

Thank you, Erin. This worked out well.
