How can i check user have permission edit thread? Plz help me.

if you have access to $thread, then it's easy:

<xf:if is="$thread.canEdit()">
    ...
</xf:if>

What is the statement for showing something every 2 or 3 posts?

If I use

<xf:if is="$post.position % $xf.options.messagesPerPage == 2">

it shows only after the second post, but i want it repeating and I'm struggeling with the right code

I never worked with the modulo operator. You can easily get what you want and be more flexible with an array. Something like:

<xf:if is="in_array($post.position, [2,5,9,15])">
   Show content...
</xf:if>

Edit: You should be able to use the modulo operator in that way:

<xf:if is="$post.position % X == 0">
   Show content...
</xf:if>

-> X is for "every X post"; e.g. 2 for every second post.

Hello, i need a clarification about this one

8. How can I show content from x if the user's likes is bigger?

<xf:if is="$user.like_count|number > x">
   Show content...
</xf:if>

Is it only the number of likes (thumb-up) or the number of positive reactions (the total reaction score in fact) that is taken into account?
Thanks.

This list is outdated. In the current XF version, there is no likes_count column in the xf_user table anymore. You should use reaction_score instead (which takes the "score" into account).

 

[Nicolas FR]

Thank you very much @nocte
So the syntax would be

<xf:if is="$user.reaction_score|number > x">
   Show content...
</xf:if>

Correct ?

 

[nocte]

Correct ?

Yeah, should work.

About this one

<xf:if is="$sidebar">
    Content...
</xf:if>

In what case do we use it? I don't quite understand its interest, how it works and in which template this code should be written.
Thanks.

the corresponding headline is:

How can I show content on pages with a sidebar?

I never worked with that condition, but it seems that it gives true (no matter where you place it) if the output contains a (right) sidebar in the end.

 

[Nicolas FR]

Oh ok I had misinterpreted the headline.
It makes sense now.

Thank you.

I just finished a tutorial about conditional statements (in french...) inspired by this resource.

Tutoriel : instructions conditionnelles XenForo

Utilisation des instructions conditionnelles (conditional statements) avec XenForo

xenforo.fr

I have one more paragraph to write for the complications with the <xf:else />, <xf:elseif is="..."> and OR, AND, etc...
Thanks for your help @nocte

Is there a condition to check, if a widget is located in the sidebar or on any other position of the page?

 

[John917]

Is there a way for us to use a conditional like "$xf.visitor.isMemberOf" but for $user?

I tried "$xf.user.isMemberOf" and as expecteded didn't work in accordance to dump vars

How do you display the widget in forum_view of a specific forum please?

 

[Paul B]

In the display condition: $xf.reply.containerKey == 'node-2' .

Change the node ID as required.

Trying to use conditional statements within a custom field (in the Value display HTML) so depending on what choice a user names, the link / href is different. Any tips?

 

[btmgreg]

Can anyone think of how to target a tag with a conditional?
