Jacket items with condition?

nqk · 11-17-2015, 05:44 AM

Hi you guys,

I created a custom column for "Translator" and I inserted to Jacket like this.

Code:

<p class="description"><b>{_translator}</b> dịch</p>

It works.
However, if there is no "translator" information, the word "dịch" still appears. Is it possible to show it only when translator is shown?

No there is no conditionality in jacket templates. WHat you can do is create a custom column with a template that evaluates to "block" when the translators column is not empty and "none" when it is empty, and then use

<p class="description" style="display:{_ccname}">{_translator} dich</p>

Change ccname above to the name of the new custom column.
