I'm trying to get related products to show but although the heading gets displayed the actual product data is blank.
Here's the code:
<?php if (!empty($this->product->customfieldsRelatedProducts)) { ?>
<h3><?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_RELATED_PRODUCTS') ?></h3>
<?php
foreach ($this->product->customfieldsRelatedProducts as $field) { ?>
<div style="display:inline-block;" class="product-field product-field-type-<?php echo $field->field_type ?>">
<span class="product-field-display"><?php echo $field->display ?></span>
<span class="product-field-desc"><?php echo jText::_($field->custom_field_desc) ?></span>
</div>
<?php }
} // Product customfieldsRelatedProducts END
?>
</div>
If I actually look at what the contents of the $field variables are all I'm seeing is blank data:
object(stdClass)#182 (17) {
["virtuemart_custom_id"]=>
string(1) "1"
["custom_parent_id"]=>
string(1) "0"
["admin_only"]=>
string(1) "0"
["custom_title"]=>
string(31) "COM_VIRTUEMART_RELATED_PRODUCTS"
["custom_tip"]=>
string(35) "COM_VIRTUEMART_RELATED_PRODUCTS_TIP"
["value"]=>
string(0) ""
["custom_field_desc"]=>
string(36) "COM_VIRTUEMART_RELATED_PRODUCTS_DESC"
["field_type"]=>
string(1) "R"
["is_list"]=>
string(1) "0"
["is_hidden"]=>
string(1) "0"
["published"]=>
string(1) "1"
["virtuemart_customfield_id"]=>
string(1) "5"
["custom_value"]=>
string(3) "156"
["custom_param"]=>
string(0) ""
["custom_price"]=>
NULL
["ordering"]=>
string(1) "0"
["display"]=>
string(0) ""
Am I doing something wrong or is VM somehow getting bad data for the related products?
Thanks for your help.
Did you set related products for the product with you are viewing/debugging?
It is fine with my end, VM 1.9.8 RC2M + J1.7.3

Sorry for the very long delayed response. Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, the related products are set in the database. If I browse to the product in the back end I see the related products but in the template I get nothing displaying.
