Conditional Statement Help
 

I am attempting to write a conditional statement for the header template, in plain english it would be:

if ("script == showthread" and "User Logged On" and "Thread Age > 30 Days") OR (forum ID == 33)
{
..output something
}
else if (no user logged on)
{
..output something
}

Now my stab at this is:

<if condition="in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, array(showthread)) AND $bbuserinfo['userid'] != 0 AND $threadinfo['dateline'] < (TIMENOW - 2419200) OR $forumid == 33">
..output something
<else />
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0">
..output something
</if>
</if>

However this just doesnt seem to work right, and I can't see where

If it doesn't work, take out the different conditions bit by bit and find which is causing the problem.

You are missing a closing parenthesis. Probably needs to before the OR.

Whoops, nice spot.

(Edited my post too)

I'm surprised the template compiler didn't barf when MrEyes saved that one. I would expect it to throw an error and do the "go back and fix the error, or continue regardless" thing.

It doesn't really check the contents of the condition except to check function calls, only that the <if> tags are opened/closed correctly.

Thanks for that, it works perfectly

Well after a minor edit :) I had to change

<else />
<if condition="$show['member']">
output something
</if>
</if>

to

<else />
<if condition="!$show['member']">
output something
</if>
</if>

for that condition to be hit by logged out users

Although this is correct:
You can also use this:
Same result.
