XF 1.2 Hide ad from one specific user group

[Mr Lucky]

I'm sure this must be easy. here is my code:

<xen:if is="{$post.position} == 0 AND !{$message.conversation_id}">
<div style="width:100%;height:10px;margin-top:40px;background:#ffffff">AD HERE</div>
</xen:if>

How do I make it so that does not display to one specified usergroup?

Thanks

Use a conditional statement.

Many thanks. I have read that but am not quite sure how I use it.

Say I want the above to only display to one group, according to that page I use

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, x}">

So to show the above only to unregistered I have:

<xen:if is="{$post.position} == 0 AND !{$message.conversation_id}" AND is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 1}" >
<div style="width:100%;height:10px;margin-top:40px;background:#ffffff"></div>
</xen:if>

However I get this error:

The following templates contained errors and were not saved: ad_message_below: 1) Line 2: Template syntax error.

How about:

<xen:if is="{$post.position} == 0 AND !{$message.conversation_id}">
<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 1}" >
<div style="width:100%;height:10px;margin-top:40px;background:#ffffff"></div>
</xen:if></xen:if>

You can't use is=" inside the if statement.

 

[Mr Lucky]

You can use is=" inside the if statement.

can you explain a bit more for dummies, or give an example

How about:

<xen:if is="{$post.position} == 0 AND !{$message.conversation_id}">
<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 1}" >
<div style="width:100%;height:10px;margin-top:40px;background:#ffffff"></div>
</xen:if></xen:if>

Thanks I'll try that

Oops. Made a typo which completely changed the meaning of my previous post.

I meant to post you can't use is=" inside the if statement, as you have done here:

<xen:if is="{$post.position} == 0 AND !{$message.conversation_id}" AND is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 1}" >

It should simply be:

<xen:if is="{$post.position} == 0 AND !{$message.conversation_id} AND {xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 1}" >

 

[Mr Lucky]

Ah, so the two ANDS is fine but you can only have one is

 

[Mr Lucky]

OK so far, many thanks for the help, but what I f I want to show to two usergroups

Neither of these work, they show to all groups.

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 1, 2} ">

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 1} OR {xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, 2} ">
