PHx and Wayfinder

I’m creating a multilingual site and need to update the primary navigation based on the user’s location in the page tree (each language is set up in it’s own container).

My current call is as follows (formatted here for readability):

[+phx:if=`[!UltimateParent!]`:is=`122`:then=
`[!Wayfinder? &startId=`122` 
&hereClass=`active` 
&rowIdPrefix=`primary-nav-` 
&outerTpl=`primaryNav_outerTpl` 
&rowTpl=`rowTpl` 
&includeDocs=`2,3,4,5,65,6,7,8`!]`
:else=
`[!Wayfinder? &startId=`124` 
&hereClass=`active` 
&rowIdPrefix=`primary-nav-` 
&outerTpl=`primaryNav_outerTpl` 
&rowTpl=`rowTpl` 
&includeDocs=`126,13,161,199,209,210,224`!]`+]

The UltimateParent call returns ’122’ as anticipated - but the PHx logic is always executing the ’else’ conditional - whether it’s a Wayfinder call or just a string of ’foo’.

Looking on the wiki didn’t lead to anything new. The Wayfinder call operates correctly when PHx is removed from the equation - am I leaving something out or writing my PHx incorrectly?

Thats odd. Try reversing the logic, eg. ne=`122`

Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn’t seem to work.

Here are the results of a simplified test:

[!UltimateParent!] // returns 122
[+phx:if=`[!UltimateParent!]`:is=`122`:then=`1`:else=`2`+] // returns 2
[+phx:if=`[!UltimateParent!]`:ne=`122`:then=`1`:else=`2`+] // returns 1

Ok Try this:

[+phx:if=`[!UltimateParent!]`:is=`122`:then=`[!UltimateParent!]`:else=`[!UltimateParent!]`+]

And see what comes out tongue

...

It will help to see whats the value inside the PHX

Here are the results. Now I’m just getting more and more confused, as it seems to be working as intended:

[!UltimateParent!] // returns 122
[+phx:if=`[!UltimateParent!]`:is=`122`:then=`[!UltimateParent!]`:else=`[!UltimateParent!]`+] // returns 122

This is the case for every page in the tree (fortunately! at least that’s working! laugh

)

In the Spanish tree (UltimateParent of 124) it returns the correct value as well (124 again).
