conditionals not working

[harmor19]

In my product I check what number is in the field then I write an HTML conditional for the appropiate parts.

//not logged in
if($dlink['view_link] == 1)
{
$custom_droplinks .= "<if condition='".$show['registerbutton']."'>
<tr><td class='vbmenu_option'>$img<a href='".$dlink['url']."' target='$new' title='".$dlink['alt']."'>".$dlink['name']</a></td></tr></if>";
}
//is logged in
elseif($dlink['view_link] == 2)
{
$custom_droplinks .= "<if condition='".$show['member']."'>
<tr><td class='vbmenu_option'>$img<a href='".$dlink['url']."' target='$new' title='".$dlink['alt']."'>".$dlink['name']</a></td></tr></if>";
}
//both
else
{
$custom_droplinks .= "
<tr><td class='vbmenu_option'>$img<a href='".$dlink['url']."' target='$new' title='".$dlink['alt']."'>".$dlink['name']</a></td></tr>";
}

The hook I'm using is "global_start"

you've got a typo.

<if condition='".$show['meber']."'>
should be
<if condition='".$show['member']."'>

apart from that, I'm nto too hot on php but it looks ok to me.

I fixed that but still doesn't work.

Maybe if I cancel out the array
<if condition='.\$show['member']."'>

Make sure $show['member'] is set and try...

<if condition="$show[member]">

I tried this but this doesn't work
<template name="custom_droplinks" templatetype="template" date="1128881080" username="harmor19" version="3.5.0"><![CDATA[<if condition="$show[member]">$custom_droplinks</if>
]]></template>

Maybe it's my hook location?

Oops, missed your hook location. Yes it's that b/c $show['member'] is not defined until after that hook. In global you'll see...

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
{
$show['guest'] = false;
$show['member'] = true;
}
else
{
$show['guest'] = true;
$show['member'] = false;
}

So, instead of <if condition="$show[member]"> try...

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[userid]">
