XF 2.3 How to trim the value of a variable?

[Stuart Wright]

Hi folks, I have this code

<xf:if is="{$block.block_title} != 'Conclusion' && {$block.block_title} != 'Conclusion '">

and going by my coding background that the trim function removes leading and trailing spaces, I want to shorten it to

<xf:if is="<xf:trim>{$block.block_title}</xf:trim>  != 'Conclusion'">

Except, that doesn't work, does it.
So how do I do this, please?
Thanks

Use the trim function and not the tag:

<xf:if is="trim($block.block_title) != 'Conclusion'">

Perfect, Jeremy, thank you.
Is there a resource which lists the available functions please?

I don't think so, but you can open up src/XF/Template/Templater.php and peak at the $defaultFunctions property.

In case you are interested (you seem to be getting into developy stuff), using number($var) is a function, using $var|number is a filter.

They can also be used together, like so: {{ function($var)|filter}}.

All of the them can be found in src/XF/Template/Templater.php.

These are all the filters:

default
censor
count
currency
emoji
escape
for_attr
file_size
first
format
hex
host
htmlspecialchars
ip
join
json
last
nl2br
nl2nl
number
number_short
numeric_keys_only
pad
parens
pluck
preescaped
raw
replace
split
split_long
strip_tags
to_lower
to_upper
de_camel...
