How do I NOT output a form when a specific article is displayed?
Yes, I am a newb. So, I want this form “kmc_secondary_courses” to be outputted in all cases except when a specific article is being displayed. Here is the code for the page template:
<!— content —>
<div id=“content”>
<txp:output_form form=“kmc_secondary_courses” />
<div id=“content_primary”> <txp:if_individual_article> <txp:article status=“sticky” /> <txp:article /> <txp:else /> <txp:article status=“sticky” /> </txp:if_individual_article> </div><txp:output_form form=“kmc_content_features” />
</div><!— / #content —>
I could make that article have a special category and use <txp:if_article_category name=”???”> but I still can’t figure it out since the form is outputted before the article.
Thanks.

Wrap it on <txp:if_article_id id="XX"></txp:if_article_id>, where XX is the number (id) corresponding to the article where you don’t want to display the form.

Re: How do I NOT output a form when a specific article is displayed?
So you mean like this?
<!— content —>
<div id=“content”>
<txp:if_article_id id“250”>
<txp:output_form form=“kmc_secondary_courses” />
</txp:if_article_id>
<txp:output_form form=“kmc_content_features” />
</div><!— / #content —>
Because that does the opposite, that outputs the form ONLY for the article with the ID=“250”. Am I missing something?

Almost there:
<txp:if_article_id id="250">
<txp:else />
<txp:output_form form="kmc_secondary_courses" />
</txp:if_article_id>Offline

Thanks! But, for some reason now the form is not output at all.

Ops.
If you have copied the code from my post above, then the problem is that I wrongly used typographical (curly) quotes on attributes, and that’s probably the reason you were getting no output at all.
I’ve fixed the code above, try it again.
