On/off or yes/no conditional help, please.

I'm trying to set a simple conditional to allow my members to enable/disable a sidebar based on usergroup permissions.

I have a CPF (field18), Single-Selection Radio Buttons, with the options being "Yes" and "No".

In the user's profile options page, is an option: "Display the sidebar? (o) Yes ( ) No".

If the YES button is checked, I want a conditional to display the respective code. From what I can tell by hunting around vb.com, this should work:

<if condition="$post[field18] == 'Yes'">

But it doesn't. :\

What would the proper yes/no (or on/off) conditional syntax be?

Thanks!

What template are you using that condition in? I think that particular one - $post[field18] - is only available on the showthread page (and, I think it has to do with the poster, not the viewer, and you want the viewer, yes?). Have you tried $vbulletin->userinfo[field18] ?

That first part would certainly explain a lot, this is driving me nuts.

So what you're saying is:

<if condition="$userinfo[field18] == 'Yes'">

Correct?

/me goes off to try that

The values are returned as 1 and 2, it's a number that is returned, not the text.

HTML Code:

</fieldset><fieldset class="fieldset">

        <legend>test</legend>

        <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="3" border="0" width="100%">

        <tr>

                <td>test</td>

        </tr>

        <tr>



        <td>

                <table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" border="0">

                <tr><td valign="top"><label for="rb_cpf_field10_1"><input type="radio" name="userfield[field10]" value="1" id="rb_cpf_field10_1" checked="checked" />yes</label></td></tr><tr><td valign="top"><label for="rb_cpf_field10_2"><input type="radio" name="userfield[field10]" value="2" id="rb_cpf_field10_2"  />no</label></td></tr>

                </table>

                <input type="hidden" name="userfield[field10_set]" value="1" />

        </td>

        </tr>

        



</table>

</fieldset>

look at the source output on edit profile. ;)

This is what I tried, which didn't do it. I'm doing it on Forumhome:

Code:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'index'"> 

<if condition="$userinfo[field18] == 'Yes'">

[high]* Chris-777 goes off to try that[/high]

In my navbar template, I actually use:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo[field13] <> 'Yes'">

stuff for when it isn't set to Yes

</if>

Also doesn't work:

Code:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'index'"> 

<if condition="$userinfo[field18] == '1'">

The first part is correct (eg: that alone displays my code), so I think Lynne's on target with the thinking that I need a global conditional, or at least one that works on the index.

If there was a way I could fedex you a cake right now, I would. You are absolutely AWESOME Lynne, that works - thank you VERY much as usual! :D

While I'm at it (though I should probably start a new thread) - how would I go about setting usergroup permissions on my shiny new on/off CPF? :D The idea here is that contributers can turn something on/off, whilst regular registered users cannot.

You need a hook after the userinfo is sorted out, yes.

Ok, it's passed from the form as 1 and 2 and stored for comparison in the field as the text, so go with that when comparing.

Secondly. until you go to the profile page and click yes, the field will be blank. eg, the comparison will always fail.

As far as I know, you cannot put permissions on the option in the UserCP. But, what you may be able to do is in the 'text' for the setting, say it's a premium feature. That way, they can set it to whatever they want, but it shouldn't have an effect if you set a conditional with it like:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo[field18] == 'Yes' AND is_member_of($bbuserinfo,5,6)">

stuff for users who said Yes in field 18 and are members of usergroup 5 or 6

</if>

(I use that condition in the same template.... makes me wonder if you can use $bbuerinfo instead of $vbulletin->userinfo... I'll have to try that later.)

That'll work. Good going. :)
