Re: Conditional statement help

If you really don’t want to display anything for the else case, the below will be sufficient:

<txp:custom_field name="image_caption" />
<txp:custom_field name="image_caption_2" />

Edit: Removed even more superfluous stuff

Re: Conditional statement help

Sorry my mistake I do want to display something different for the else case – ie

<txp:if_custom_field name=“image_caption”>
<txp:custom_field name=“image_caption” />

<txp:if_custom_field name=“image_caption_2”>
<txp:custom_field name=“image_caption_2” />

<txp:else />
Display some html here

Re: Conditional statement help

<txp:chh_if_data>
	<txp:custom_field name="image_caption" />
	<txp:custom_field name="image_caption_2" />
<txp:else />
Your HTML goes here.
</txp:chh_if_data>

chh_if_data is a plugin.

Edit: Superfluous stuff removed

Re: Conditional statement help

In casee you’ve copied my code already: delete it and use the corrected version above. D’oh, so much nonsense by copying/pasting! =/
