I have a webtemplate set up as basically a global "New thread" page - which grabs a list of forumid's / titles and outputs a list of every forum, with every forum name linking to it's respective newthread.php link.

What I want to do now is be able to show which forums are empty, but can't figure out how to use a conditional statement to do so...


I've tried

<if condition=" $WQfield[lastpostid] == 0">code here</if>

.. but noticed that it doesn't matter what I put inside of condition="" - whatever is inside still ends up being displayed.


Is this just not builtinto the functionality of WebTemplates or am I doing something wrong? thanks

Webqueries result row section does not support template condiditionals.

You can do what you want by hacking view.php. Find this line:

PHP Code:

@eval("\$birikenrow .= \"".WTgettemplate("$WTWQ[resultrow]", 1, 0)."\";"); 


and before that use something like this

PHP Code:

 if ($WTWQ['qname']=='$WQ_last10threadfromforum2') 
{
$WQfield[title] = "If webquery name is $WQ_last10threadfromforum2' this is what all thread titles will be!!";
} 


Important: There are 2 of these lines so you should add the hack before BOTH of them.
