vB4 Template Conditionals List

[smooth-c]

<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo[field7] == 'No'">
<vb:else />
<!-- Wy MyFav Album Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['field6']"><style="text-align:left"></dt> <img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/myfavalbum/{vb:raw post.field6}.png" align="middle" alt="Members Fav Album" border="" /></vb:if>  
<!-- Wy MyFav Album End -->
</vb:if>

I have a user profile field - No or Yes.

This doesn't seem to be working (it's in my postbit)

Any ideas?

In your postbit, you would use $post, not $bbuserinfo. $bbuserinfo is for showing you your own information anyway.

I'm attempting to create a tab with sublinks, with appropriate security.

I have the tab (Special access), with the drop down box (sublink 1, 2, 3) using this code:

I had to create a plugin with this code:

global $template_hook;
    $newTemplate = vB_Template::create('dropdown');
    $template_hook['navtab_end'] .= $newTemplate->render();

and a new template:

<li class="popupmenu">
    <a href="javascript://" class="popupctrl navtab" style="background:transparent url({vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/arrow.png) no-repeat {vb:stylevar right} center; padding-right: 15px">Special Access</a>
    <ul class="popupbody popuphover">
    <li><a style="text-indent: 0px; color:{vb:stylevar navbar_selected_popup_body_a_Color}" href="http://domain.com.com/">Sublink 1</a></li>
    <li><a style="color:{vb:stylevar navbar_selected_popup_body_a_Color}" href="sublink2.php">SubLink 2</a></li>
    <li><a style="color:{vb:stylevar navbar_selected_popup_body_a_Color}" href="sublink3.php">SubLink 3</a></li>
    </ul>
    </li>

My question is how can I use a conditional where only those in the admin group can access it?

Just use the conditional for usergroups as shown in the first post and wrap it around the code you want that group to have access to in your template.

i have in my plugin the following code:

$rkc_variable1 = $vbulletin->db->query_first("
    SELECT id, name, class_1, class_1_level
    FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "rkc_table AS rkc_table
    WHERE id = '" . $vbulletin->db->escape_string($rkc_getobject) . "'
");
$rkc_variable1['name'] = htmlspecialchars($rkc_variable1['name']);
$rkc_variable1['class_1'] = htmlspecialchars($rkc_variable1['class_1']);
$rkc_variable1['class_1_level'] = htmlspecialchars($rkc_variable1['class_1_level']);

And i want to display a conditional to accoplish something like the following:

<vb:if condition"($rkc_variable1['class_1']) == ClassType1">
    selected code goes here
</vb:if>

now, i know i can use

{vb:raw rkc_variable1.class_1}

to post the contents in a template, but if i cannot use {vb:raw} in a conditional, how would this goal be accomplished?

[BirdOPrey5]

When displaying the output of a variable you use:

{vb:raw rkc_variable1.class_1}

When testing in a condition you use:

$rkc_variable1['class_1']

[wpeloquin]

I have tried many combinations using that, including what seems to be the most likely (for comparing a string to a string)

<vb:if condition"($rkc_variable1['class_1']='ClassType1')">Success <vb:else />Failure </vb:if>

Now, if i change it to ='' then it will return "Failure", but if anything at all is there, then it returns "Success".

My goal is to use a <select> menu for set options when editing an object currently saved to the database. Example:

Choose Class Type:  
<select name="set_class1" id="set_class1" value="{vb:raw rkc_variable.class_1}">
<option value="">Choose Class</option>
<option value="ClassType1"<vb:if condition"($rkc_variable1['class_1']='ClassType1')"> selected="selected"</vb:if>>ClassType1</option>
<option value="ClassType2"<vb:if condition"($rkc_variable1['class_1']='ClassType2')"> selected="selected"</vb:if>>ClassType2</option>
</select>

Every combination of conditional i have tried just returns the bottom value that has the conditional in it, in this example ClassType2 would show even if the set value in the database was ClassType1. My guess is its just a syntax issue on getting the conditional phrased just right.

if it helps, i have the following code in the plugin to register it:

$templater = vB_Template::Create('rkc_customtemplate');
$templater->register_page_templates();
$templater->register('navbar', $navbar);
$templater->register('rkc_getobject', $rkc_getobject);
$templater->register('rkc_variable1', $rkc_variable1);
print_output($templater->render());

[BirdOPrey5]

You definitely need equal signs in the conditionals...

<select name="set_class1" id="set_class1" value="{vb:raw rkc_variable.class_1}">
<option value="">Choose Class</option>
<option value="ClassType1"<vb:if condition="($rkc_variable1['class_1']='ClassType1')"> selected="selected"</vb:if>>ClassType1</option>
<option value="ClassType2"<vb:if condition="($rkc_variable1['class_1']='ClassType2')"> selected="selected"</vb:if>>ClassType2</option>
</select>

If that gives you an error try it without the single quotes around 'class_1' - sometimes they don't work right in templates.

[wpeloquin]

i apologize for the inaccurate entry in my code. the code in my template did have the "=". However, the same problem exists. if i put the conditional only on the ClassType2 option, then no matter what ClassType is actually in the database, ClassType2 will always be the selected option.

Example: say the options range from 1-5. If i put the conditional on 2, and then choose 4, 4 will be stored in the database, but when bringing up that object to edit, option 2 will be the default choice in the select menu. Clicking to edit the object should show all default data currently stored, so that if you choose to edit and then 'save' without making any changes, no changes will be made. in this scenario, option 4 is in the database, but if you choose edit and then save w/o physically making any changes, option 2 will replace option 4.

<select type="text" name="set_class1" id="set_class1" value="{vb:raw rkc_variable1.class1}" class="primary">
<option value="">Choose Class1</option>
<option value="Option1">Option1</option>
<option value="Option2">Option2</option>
<option value="Option3">Option3</option>
<option value="Option4">Option4</option>
<option value="Option5">Option5</option>
<option value="Option6"<vb:if condition="($rkc_variable1['class1']='Option6')"> selected="selected"</vb:if>>Option6</option>
<option value="Option7">Option7</option>
<option value="Option8">Option8</option>
</select>

this code will always default the <select> to Class6, regardless of what the actual data in the table is. This is the problem i am having.
