Conditional Statements

[Paul B]

That's not possible using a conditional statement.

Is there a way to say call an if statement based on a hook?
Ex
<xen:if is="{$hook_name} == x">
This content will shown
<xen:else />
This content will shown
</xen:if>

 

[Paul B]

What are you trying to do?

I am trying to modify the avatar for the [bd] Rotating Ads, and couldn't think of any other way so I was going to modify the message template and say if hook is "ads" then use "this avatar" otherwise use the default avatar..

The default expression of XenForo for changing themes and language:

<xen:if is="{$canChangeStyle} OR {$canChangeLanguage}">

I want it to show only for the Members.
Is this the right approach?

<xen:if is="{$canChangeStyle} OR {$canChangeLanguage} AND {$visitor.user_id}">

Right now only works for me is this:

<xen:if is="{$canChangeStyle} AND {$visitor.user_id}">

 

[Paul B]

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} AND ({$canChangeStyle} OR {$canChangeLanguage})">

 

[rdn]

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} AND ({$canChangeStyle} OR {$canChangeLanguage})">

Thank You Brogan

Is there a condition to check what style the user is using?

 

[Paul B]

{$visitor.style_id}

We're displaying an ad after 5th post on every page on a thread. We're also displaying ad after the messages and sometimes those 2 ads show too close to each other (5-8 posts on a page). Is there a conditional to show the first ad if the page has at least 7-8 posts? Here's the current conditional:

<xen:if is="{$post.position} % {$xenOptions.messagesPerPage} == 4 AND !{$message.conversation_id}">
Show the ad/template here
</xen:if>

 

[Paul B]

Use AND {$thread.reply_count} > 7.

 

[Tumpe]

Use AND {$thread.reply_count} > 7.

Yeah that works for the first page but not when there's multiple pages. So I meant to show the first ad on every page if there's at least 7 posts on that page.

Use AND {$thread.reply_count} > 7.

Hi Brogan

Do you know a conditional to display something if the user is viewing a specific page defined in the nodes page?

 

[Paul B]

If you mean a page node, you can use the page node id.

I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to do though.

Are these still correct for 1.4?

I get the following error:

1. Argument 1 passed to XenForo_Template_Helper_Core::helperIsMemberOf() must be an array, null givenin /public_html/library/XenForo/Template/Helper/Core.php, line 1344
2. Argument 1 passed to XenForo_Model_User::isMemberOfUserGroup() must be an array, null given, called in /public_html/library/XenForo/Template/Helper/Core.php on line 1352 and defined in /public_html/library/XenForo/Model/User.php, line 1683
   

When I try to do:

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, x}">
This content will show to members of user group x
</xen:if>

 

[RobParker]

Even the "if userid equals" ones doesn't seem to be working. It just hides it from everyone including the specified user.

 

[Paul B]

Still works fine for me.

 

[RobParker]

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 3}">
  test
</xen:if>

That gives the errors I posted above.

 

[RobParker]

Hmm it's the template I'm placing it in that's causing issues.

It works fine in other templates, e.g. header

This is the template I'm trying to wrap it around

  <a href="{xen:link 'forums/{$forumID}'}" class="modLink">
  <span class="itemLabel">{xen:phrase StaffRoomUnread_AdminRoom}</span>
  <span class="itemCount {xen:if {$messageCount}, 'alert'}"> {$messageCount}</span>
  </a>

Is that from an add-on?
If so, you will need to contact the author for support.
