I created a content type with cck and added a subform to that element. I tried to do a custom template, and the subform elements stop showing up. All the non-subform elements can be reached at 'field_fieldname' but I can't seem to figure out how to printout the subform elements. I really need to create a custom template for my content type, but the array of subform elements doesn't seem to be passed to the template.

I have a little bit of experience with drupal, so maybe I'm just not doing it correctly. Thank you ahead of time for the help.

Did you ever figure out how to do this? I'm trying to do the same thing, so far with no success. Thanks.

Sorry, I was away for the holidays.

Here is a link to the site: Website

I'm not sure how that will help though. It may be a bit slow as well as it is on my home server. The code I have in my tpl file is as follows:

<div id="node-content-album">
	<div class="field-field-album-cover">
	  	<?php foreach ((array)$field_album_cover as $item) { ?>
		<?php print $item['view'] ?>
		<?php } ?>
	</div>
	<!--div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-release-year">
	  <h3 class="field-label">Release Year</h3>
	  <div class="field-items">
		<?php foreach ((array)$field_release_year as $item) { ?>
		  <div class="field-item"><?php print $item['view'] ?></div>
		<?php } ?>
	  </div>
	</div-->
<div class="field-field-songs">
  <h3 class="field-label"><?php print $title?></h3>
  <div class="field-items">
	<?php print $node->field_songs[0] ?>
    <?php foreach ((array)$field_songs as $item) { ?>
      <div class="field-item"><?php print $item['view'] ?></div>
    <?php } ?>
  </div>
</div>
</div>

The songs are the subform item.

Do I maybe have to template a view instead? I guess I'm just not 100% how subform works, so its hard to figure out how to alter it/template it.

Thanks,
Steph

Are there are any updates to this issue? I am experiencing the same behavior. I would like to use templating to define the layout.

As a side note, I see a HUGE value with this module and I can foresee others using this extensively.
