$field in references() limit to template

[toni]

Hi,

I have persons using template person. I have events linking to persons using a template event.
By now on a person detail page I'm looking for events like:

$page->references()

and in my loop I'm checking if the item has template "event" 

{if $item->template == "event"}

smarty ?

Is it possible to do this in one step? ~ ->references('template=event') I must admit I do not really got the idea of $field.

 

Thanks!

@toni - the docs show (https://processwire.com/api/ref/page/references/) that you can use a selector exactly as you are describing. Did you try to see if it works as you want?

hi @adrian. mhhh yep this is what I did so there must be something else wrong ?

Dear @adrian sorry for noise. With some rubber duck debugging ... it was a typo. Shame on me ;(
