Re: smd_if: Generic multiple if condition tests
Hey Stef
Not sure if this affects anyone else but I upgraded a 4.5.7 site to smd_if 1.00 it didn’t work for me, I had to downgrade to 0.92. I didn’t see a version listing on the front page of plugin support or your page.

Re: smd_if: Generic multiple if condition tests
Wondering if this is possible, or if there’s another way to get to it…
I have a partial of snake teeth that checks if there’s an article image or not and does its slither dance either way. The image is used as a hero and marked up as a figure so I can make use of the caption.
<txp:if_article_image>
<hr>
<p class="excerpt"><txp:excerpt escape="trim, tidy" /></p>
<figure class="hero">
<txp:article_image height="0" width="0" />
<figcaption>
<txp:image_info id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />' type="caption" escape="tidy,textile" />
</figcaption>
</figure>
<txp:else />
<hr class="startrule">
<p class="excerpt"><txp:excerpt escape="trim, tidy" /></p>
<hr class="endrule">
</txp:if_article_image>Now, of course, I’ve run into a possible situation where I might not want every hero to have a caption. I can not add a caption in the field, but the figcaption pair still outputs. I couldn’t think how to get around this with core tags, so I thought maybe smd_if would be the ticket, but the docs are a tad obtuse for this peckerwood.
First I tried and hoped the new not functionality would work:
<txp:smd_if field="caption" not value="NULL">
<figcaption>
<txp:image_info id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />' type="caption" escape="tidy,textile" />
</figcaption>
</txp:smd_if>No dice.
Then I tried what I though was a shoe-in (note the else tag):
<txp:smd_if field="caption" value="NULL"><txp:else />
<figcaption>
<txp:image_info id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />' type="caption" escape="tidy,textile" />
</figcaption>
</txp:smd_if>Still nothing. An empty <figcaption></figcaption> still outputs.
Am I using the ‘NULL’ correctly?
Harlp?

Re: smd_if: Generic multiple if condition tests
How about not using smd_if (sorry Stef) and using either the attribute wraptag="figcaption":
<txp:image_info id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />'
type="caption" escape="tidy,textile"
wraptag="figcaption" />(you can write that all in one line) or if that doesn’t work as desired, using txp:evaluate to only output the code block when the tag returns a value:
<txp:evaluate test="image_info">
<figcaption>
<txp:image_info id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />' type="caption" escape="tidy,textile" />
</figcaption>

Re: smd_if: Generic multiple if condition tests
Hi Destry,
Just to let you know that you can also do what you are trying to achieve without a plugin.
<txp:variable name="capt" value='<txp:images id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />' /></txp:images>' />
<txp:if_variable name="capt" value="">
<txp:else />
<figcaption>
<txp:image_info id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" />' type="caption" escape="tidy,textile" />
</figcaption>
</txp:if_variable>Yiannis

Re: smd_if: Generic multiple if condition tests
As usual, there are multiple roads to the doghouse.
I really need to learn those variable and evaluate tags better. I think I’ll go with the evaluate trick this time around.
Thank you.

Re: smd_if: Generic multiple if condition tests
Hello
Does this plugin work on Textpattern 4.8 Beta?
Admin-side theme: hive 4.8.0-beta
Active plugins:
smd_if-1.0.0
I get the warning message that it is not registered.
No idea what is wrong.
My php version is 7.2.10

Re: smd_if: Generic multiple if condition tests
Huh. Swear I registered this plugin’s tags. I’ll get it done today and release it, sorry.

Re: smd_if: Generic multiple if condition tests
There you go. Try smd_if v1.0.0 which has the tag registered and a few other minor fixes.
