Okay say i create 3 custum fields. now i want to have them set up in my postbit. But i dont want it to appear unless one of these fields is filled.


Now I want to have some text above

<vb:if condition="$post['field5']"> <center>Text Here</center>< /br> <vb:if condition="$post['field5']"> | vb:if condition="$post['field6']"> | <vb:if condition="$post['field7']">


Now how do i begin that instead of field5 what would i add that if any of them fields were filled out that it would load. at the moment that would only show if field 5 is filled. even if field6 and 7 were filled. i need it to show if field 6 is filled or 7. or just one of them, i think you would understand what i am saying. i have these fields in a category so if i have to call the category i can.

I don't understand exactly what you want but you use "AND" and "OR" inside the quoted stuff in the conditional. For example:


<vb:if condition="$post['field5'] OR $post['field6'] OR $post['field7']"> ............. </vb:if>


Use "AND", "OR" and whatever parentheses you need. It's standard PHP syntax inside the quotes

yeah thats somewhat right. it will show it now but it will still show the images for the other fields. even though there blank ( figured out i needed to add the if conditions in between each link or they would all show reguardless )

<dl class="userinfo_extra">
<vb:if condition="$post['field9'] OR $post['field10'] OR $post['field11']">
<dd><center><b>Gamer Info</b><br>
<body class="gamerfont"><vb:if condition="$post['field9']"><a href="#" class="tooltipy"><img src="images/xboxicon.png" alt="My Gamertag" /><span><strong>My Xbox Gamertag is</br> {vb:raw post.field9}</strong><br />Go ahead and add me as a friend</span></a> </vb:if> <vb:if condition="$post['field10']"> <a href="#" class="tooltipy"><img src="images/Psnicon.png" alt="My Psn Gamertag" /><span><strong>My Playstation Gamertag is</br> {vb:raw post.field10}</strong><br />Go ahead and add me as a friend</span></a></vb:if> <vb:if condition="$post['field11']"> <a href="#" class="tooltipy"><img src="images/steamicon.png" alt="My Gamertag" /><span><strong>My Steam Account is</br> {vb:raw post.field11}</strong><br />Go ahead and add me as a friend</span></a></vb:if></body>
</dd></dl></center></vb:if> yeah that was it thanks for pointing me in the right direction :)
