Use "if then else" in PDO-Template | MODX Community Forums

Hello,

i try to use this "PHP" code in PDO-Template:

HTML:

[[!pdoResources? &parents=`2` &tpl=`pdotpl`]]

Chunk "pdotpl":

[[+pagetitle]]
[[+longtitle]]
[[*show:isnot=`yes`:then=``:else=`I SHOW YOU SOMETHING`]]

But it doesn't work (probably because the *show is not a placeholder).

Do you have any ideas how i can solve this in a different way?

this isn't php. This is an output-filter, what you are playing with.

if this is a TV with name show, you have to add the tvname to includeTVs

[[!pdoResources? &parents=`2` &tpl=`pdotpl` &includeTVs=`show`]]

and have it in your chunk like

[[+pagetitle]]
[[+longtitle]]
[[+tv.show:isnot=`yes`:then=``:else=`I SHOW YOU SOMETHING`]]

-------------------------------

you can buy me a beer, if you like MIGX

Sorry, i forget. I use allready &includeTVs=`show` but my chunk was wrong.

I tried this form:

[[+show:isnot=`yes`:then=``:else=`I SHOW YOU SOMETHING`]]

[[*show:isnot=`yes`:then=``:else=`I SHOW YOU SOMETHING`]]

But thats works, thank you Bruno!

[[+tv.show:isnot=`yes`:then=``:else=`I SHOW YOU SOMETHING`]]
