Link depends on option

[Matthew Hawley]

So...if want a link to change depending on an option how would I do this?

Option = not checked
--- Default link

Option = checked
--- Link changes

Thanks!

You've not really given enough information, so I'll assume you mean this:

<xen:if is="{$xenOptions.yourOptionId} == 'some_value'">
    <a href="{xen:link link/default}">Default Link</a>
<xen:else />
     <a href="{xen:link link/changed}">Different link</a>
</xen:if>

<xen:if is="{$xenOptions.yourOptionId} == 'some_value'">
    <a href="{xen:link link/default}">Default Link</a>
<xen:else />
     <a href="{xen:link link/changed}">Different link</a>
</xen:if>

Thanks! What would 'some value' mean? checked?

 

[Chris D]

It depends on the option type.

If it's just an on/off checkbox you can do this:

<xen:if is="{$xenOptions.yourOptionId}">
    <a href="{xen:link link/default}">Default Link</a>
<xen:else />
     <a href="{xen:link link/changed}">Different link</a>
</xen:if>

Because an on/off checkbox is either true or false then you don't need to specify the value.

Some options (e.g. radio buttons) have different values some "some_value" could be the ID of the option value.

It worked. Thank you!

K so on http://xenforo.com/community/resources/enable-disable-notable-members.2012/ if Notable members is disabled it directs to the registered members list. But what if both notable members and registered members list are disabled? How would I get it to direct to another link?

Add another <xen:else />

<xen:if is="">

<xen:elseif is="" />

<xen:else />

</xen:if>

 

[Matthew Hawley]

Add another <xen:else />

<xen:if is="">

<xen:elseif is="" />

<xen:else />

</xen:if>

Thanks!

 

[Matthew Hawley]

Add another <xen:else />

<xen:if is="">

<xen:elseif is="" />

<xen:else />

</xen:if>

It didn't work. This is the code.

<xen:if is="{$xenOptions.enableNotableMembers}">
  <a href="{$tabs.members.href}" class="navLink">{$tabs.members.title}</a>
<xen:else />
  <a href="{xen:link members/list}" class="navLink">{$tabs.members.title}</a>
<xen:else />
<xen:if is="{$xenOptions.enableMemberList}">
<xen:elseif is="{$xenOptions.enableNotableMembers}" />
<a href="{xen:link recent-activity}" class="navLink">{$tabs.members.title}</a>
</xen:else>
</xen:if>

Also when I disable Notable members the link still shows, when i add your code.

 

[Chris D]

You can't have multiple else statements like that and you can't combine an additional if statement like you have.

Then what do I do?

Try this:

If NotableMembers is enabled provide that link,
otherwise, if MembersList enabled, provide that link.
otherwise, do some other link.

I think this might work.

<xen:if is="{$xenOptions.enableNotableMembers}">
  <a href="{$tabs.members.href}" class="navLink">{$tabs.members.title}</a>
<xen:elseif "{$xenOptions.enableMemberList}" />
  <a href="{xen:link members/list}" class="navLink">{$tabs.members.title}</a>
<xen:else />
  <a href="{xen:link somewhere else}" class="navLink">Somewhere else.</a>
</xen:if>

  <a href="{$tabs.members.href}" class="navLink">{$tabs.members.title}</a>
<xen:elseif is="{$xenOptions.enableMemberList}" />
  <a href="{xen:link members/list}" class="navLink">{$tabs.members.title}</a>
<xen:else />
  <a href="{xen:link somewhere else}" class="navLink">Somewhere else.</a>
</xen:if>

That's pretty much it @Matthew Hawley

  <a href="{xen:link members/list}" class="navLink">{$tabs.members.title}</a>
<xen:else />
  <a href="{xen:link somewhere else}" class="navLink">Somewhere else.</a>
</xen:if>

Didn't work. If BOTH notable members and member lists is enabled I want it to direct to another link.

If notable members: members.href

If notable members & member list: somewhere/else.

Didn't work.

Could you provide some more information? Perhaps debug the code yourself? Which ones work and which ones don't?

When I save it in a template I get this:

The following templates contained errors and were not saved: navigation: 1) Line 108: Template syntax error.

EDIT: nvm

 

[Matthew Hawley]

Okay fixed that syntax error. But now the member navtab disappears.

 

[SneakyDave]

Looks to me like James solution should work. Does your version look just like it?

never mind. Are you missing an
</xen:if>
somewhere?
