Print field-item wrappers for multi select lists even when only one item is selected.

moving to views, if this is not posted in the correct place, please direct me in the right direction to get this issue resolved, thank you.

Sorry, I had this as a CCK Issue, but no responses, and it just occurred to me that the problem is only when the field is displayed in a view. I just need to add a wrapper for the item when there is only one.

found the issue in cck/includes/views/handlers/content_handler_field_multiple.inc there is an if statement when rendering the field, and if there is only one value it does not get themed. I changed it to this for now, just to get it to work, but I realise it is a poor hack:

        if (count($rendered) > 1) {
          // TODO: could we use generic field display ?
          return theme('content_view_multiple_field', $rendered, $field, $values);
        }
        elseif ($rendered) {
        // return $rendered[0];
	  return theme('content_view_multiple_field', $rendered, $field, $values);
        }
      }

Personally, as someone who creates and themes a lot of Drupal sites, I think it should always render themed.
Any thoughts on this? Is this something that can be updated to head? If not how can i write this into my theme?

Thank you,

Yeah looks like a cleaner solution. As soon as I get a chance I'll apply it and post back. Thanks!

Hi Shane, Sorry I never posted back. I have since upgraded the project in question to Drupal 7 and haven't had an issue with this since. Not sure if this ever made it into version 6.
