XF 1.1 What is wrong with this template condition?

[rdn]

<xen:if is="{$postId} == 2 AND !{$visitor.user_id} AND !in_array({$forum.node_id}, array(23,26,74,76,77,79,89,93,94,95,106,108,159,160,161,162,198))">
 
CONTENT HERE
 
</xen:if>
 
 
<xen:if is="{$postId} == 3 AND !{$visitor.user_id} AND !in_array({$forum.node_id}, array(23,26,74,76,77,79,89,93,94,95,106,159,160,161,162))">
 
CONTENT HERE
 
</xen:if>

It doesn't work or display.

Firstly, what template are you using this in?

Next, be methodical with it...

Break it down and test it piece by piece...

So first try:

<xen:if is="{$postId} == 2">
CONTENT
</xen:if>

If that works... try the next bit...

<xen:if is="{$postId} == 2 AND !{$visitor.user_id}">
CONTENT
</xen:if>

And keep going until you identify where it has gone wrong. Most of those conditions look correct so hopefully doing it like I've suggested above will single out the one that's wrong.

Template: ad_message_below

I tested this code:

<xen:if is="{$postId} == 2">
TEST CONTENT
</xen:if>

It didn' t work

 

[Chris D]

For that template, it wouldn't work.

ad_templates are for advert code - they don't have any parameters available to them.

So basically the ad_message_below template hasn't got a clue what $postId means.

Instead of using ad_message_below
Better I use "message" template?

 

[Chris D]

Yeah that should work.

 

[rdn]

Yeah that should work.

Thanks !
I will try.

 

[rdn]

Yeah that should work.

Still didn't work, I inserted it inside "message" template:

<article>
                <blockquote class="messageText ugc baseHtml{xen:if $message.isIgnored, ' ignored'}">
                    <xen:include template="ad_message_body" />
 
<xen:if is="{$postId} == 2">
TEST CONTENT
</xen:if>
 
                    {xen:raw $message.messageHtml}
                </blockquote>
            </article>

 

[Chris D]

Probably because $postId doesn't exist eiter.

I think you mean $message.post_id

 

[rdn]

Probably because $postId doesn't exist eiter.

I think you mean $message.post_id

How can I use that as xen/if conditionals?

 

[Chris D]

The same way...

<xen:if is="{$message.post_id} == 2">
TEST CONTENT
</xen:if>

 

[rdn]

The same way...

<xen:if is="{$message.post_id} == 2">
TEST CONTENT
</xen:if>

Still, not displaying/didn't work.

 

[Chris D]

Are you trying to show content in the post with an ID of 2 (that is, out of all of the many posts on your forum, the single post with an ID of 2) or are you trying to show content in the post in every single thread that is the 2nd post in that thread?

If the latter, I think you want this:

<xen:if is="{$message.position} == 2">
TEST CONTENT
</xen:if>

But, actually, the position starts at 0 so the second post would be 1

Still not working.

 

[Chris D]

What are you trying to do?

I'm only guessing based on the information you provide.

 

[rdn]

Kindly look at here: http://www.phcorner.info/threads/sp...ernet-connection-with-internet-cyclone.44976/
But now,I want to display the ads inside a certain post.

Just like Digital point ads addon.

 

[rdn]

I just manually coded that ads placement with xf conditional.

 

[Chris D]

This works for me...

<xen:if is="{$message.position} == 2">
TEST CONTENT
</xen:if>

I don't know why it isn't working for you.

On what template did you add it?
How is the placement?
