 If/else: xfield |
 |
Hello,
I'm no programmer so I need some help with this...
I have set up an optional xfield for links to external websites with news story. I have this in my active news template:
 | | [xfgiven_storylink]<a href="[xfvalue_storylink]" target="_blank" class="NewsLinks">{title}</a>[/xfgiven_storylink]
<a href="{link=home/post}" class="NewsLinks">{title}</a> |
This of course shows the title twice. I'd like to only show the xfield (linked title to external website) if the editor has entered one. And if not, then it will display the default news title with link to internal news story.
Can this be done with if/else? Again, I'm no programmer, so if someone can show me exactly how to do this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I edited the XField plugin to support [xfnotgiven_myxfield]Whatever[/xfnotgiven_myxfield].
Please re-download it with the main CNR download.

Many thanks FI-DD.
I just replaced my xfield plugins with the new ones and gave it a go.
Here is what I have in my active news template now:
| | [xfgiven_storylink]<a href="[xfvalue_storylink]" target="_blank" class="NewsLinks">{title}</a>[/xfgiven_storylink]
[xfnotgiven_storylink]<a href="{link=home/post}" class="NewsLinks">{title}</a>[/xfnotgiven_storylink] |
It now works for news items that DO have an xfield option entered but it is NOT showing my normal news title/link for items that have not been given an xfield option. Any ideas? Am I using the tags correctly?
