Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is there an upgrade price from (Zenbu for EE2 or EE3)?

If you have an old license of Zenbu, enter it as a coupon code on checkout and get 50% off your purchase of Zenbu for EE4. If your code doesn’t work, contact Zenbu Studio with your license number and we’ll work things out.

I need the EE2 (or EE3) version of Zenbu!

Please contact Zenbu Studio with your license number for Zenbu for EE2 or EE3 and we’ll arrange to get you a copy. For convenience we used to include the last version of the previous version of Zenbu in the latest package but this ended up confusing some users.

My custom field does not display as expected, why is that?

By default, Zenbu displays data as it is found in the exp_channel_data database table. A few common custom fields have extended support which shows an enhanced display based off the exp_channel_data data. Customized Zenbu display support for third-party fieldtypes can be easily added by third-party developers by adding Zenbu functions in the third-party add-on’s code.

NOTE: Third-party addon support and developer documentation is not yet available, but is planned to be added soon.

Does Zenbu support (insert third-party add-on here)?

Natively within Zenbu, likely no. Only a few custom fields have support within Zenbu (including native EE custom fields). Other custom fields will at least display the contents of exp_channel_data by default. Customized Zenbu display support for third-party fieldtypes can be easily added by third-party developers by adding Zenbu functions in the third-party add-on’s code.

NOTE: Third-party addon support and developer documentation is not yet available, but is planned to be added soon.

I would like a different display style for column X. Is this possible?

Zenbu comes with a few display options for some columns, but additional customization is planned to be available when third-party support and developer documentation is available.

I would like to add a extra column in Zenbu to show X. How can this be done?

Additional customization, such as adding custom columns, is planned to be available when third-party support and developer documentation is available.
