How to access a custom field from a navigation?

[benjamincrozat]

Hello,

I'm trying to access some custom field inside my navigation from my Antlers template, but it doesn't work. I'm not seeing anything that can help in the documentation. Anyone?

<ul>
    {{ nav from="main" }}
        <li>
            <a href="{{ url }}">
                {{ some_custom_field }} {{ title }}
            </a>
        </li>
    {{ /nav }}
</ul>

If you're trying to use the main nav, you should be doing {{ nav:main }} ... {{ /nav:main }}.
Or, if its a main collection, you should be doing {{ nav:collection:main }} ... {{ /nav:collection:main }}.

RIght now, you're loading the pages collection which is the default since you've just done {{ nav }}, and the from parameter is the starting point.
