DIsplaying boolean values as yes/no

[Ashley Stewart]

I have some boolean values which are meant to indicate yes/no and I have a checkbox widget which is working correctly at inserting the values. However when I view a table and see all the fields displayed, the column with the boolean value shows as 0 or 1. How do I change this so it displays as yes/no depending on the boolean value?

Thanks.

I have been planning on making this more automatic for some time, but right now you need ot create a valuelist with 0=No, 1=Yes and use that on field via the vocabulary directive.

Another annoyance is that "0" is a reserved key in INI files so you need to implement this valuelist in PHP.

e.g.

function valuelist__yesno() {

    return array(0=>'No', 1=>'Yes');

}
