Cant get IF statement to work.

[Brexen]

Can't get this to work, any ideas on how to fix it?

Code removed :P

I've made a dropdown box for Admins so they can change their userbar outline colour.

Try this:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6)">
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5'] == 'Grey'"><img src="/images/ranks/grey.png"></vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5'] == 'Red'"><img src="/images/ranks/red.png"></vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5'] == 'Blue'"><img src="/images/ranks/blue.png"></vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5'] == 'Green'"><img src="/images/ranks/green.png"></vb:if>
</vb:if>

Try this:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6)">
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5]> == 'Grey'" <img src="/images/ranks/grey.png"></vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5]> == 'Red'" <img src="/images/ranks/red.png"></vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5]> == 'Blue'" <img src="/images/ranks/blue.png"></vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field5]> == 'Green'" <img src="/images/ranks/green.png"></vb:if>
</vb:if>

I did try that, but it gave me an error.

The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:
%1$s
This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.



Is there any way to do this through a Plugin? I'm really new to conditionals and PHP.

Sorry, there were a few other problems. I fixed my post above.

If you'd rather do it in a plugin, you could figure out which file name you want to use and register it to the template. Then you would just need to use a template variable in the img src="", like

Plugin:

$file = '/images/ranks/' . $bbuserinfo['field5'];
vB_Template::preRegister('template_name', array('userbar_color' => $file));



Template:
<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6)">
<img src="{vb:raw userbar_color}">
</vb:if>


But there's really no difference either way.

After a few edits and combinations of both our codes. Finally got it working. Thanks again.

If I'm right he can even do something like this

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6)">
<img src="/images/ranks/{bbuserinfo.field5}.png">
</vb:if>

But you have to rename pics: green.png became Green.png, blue.png became Blue.png etc..

Yeah, I don't know why I decided to do that in the plugin example but not suggest doing it in the template. I guess I didn't want to deal with the upper/lower case issue, then forgot about it. :confused:
