MultiTV and only one filled, show something else?

My slider doesn't work with only 1 item, so I need to show another item and hide the arrows (add some css) to get it to work when 1 item is being uploaded into multiTV.

Maybe with phx its possible to count items and output something else?

multiTV has an rows.total placeholder in outerTpl that could be used for that (https://github.com/Jako/multiTV#placeholder-outertpl).

[+rows.total:eq=`1`:then=`xxx`:else=`yyy`+]

Thanks Jako, that's awesome - I have always wanted to hide the paging buttons when only one slide exists in MultiTV slideshows but never knew how to do it.

This works a treat in the MultiTV wrapper template:

[+rows.total:gt=`1`:then=`<div id="slider-pager"></div>`:else=``+]

Thanks.

Grr,

I need when empty then show x (x = <img scr="empty.jpg" />) else show y (y = multitv)
I tried everything but can't get it to work.

PHX:

if (!class_exists('PHxParser')) {
    include MODX_BASE_PATH . "assets/plugins/phx/phx.parser.class.inc.php";
}

$e = &$modx->Event;
switch($e->name) {
    case 'OnParseDocument':
        $PHx = new PHxParser($phxdebug,$phxmaxpass);
        $PHx->OnParseDocument();
        break;
}

MultiTV:

[!multiTV?
    &tvName=`banner`
    &docid=`[*id*]`
    &outerTpl=`slider-outer`
    &rowTpl=`slider-row`
    &display=`all`
    &rows=`all`
    &toPlaceholder=`0`
    &randomize=`0`
    &published=`1`
    &emptyOutput=`0`
!]

Modx version: 1.0.13.rc2

Tried:
&emptyOutput=`1`

[*banner:ne=``:then=`not empty`*]
[+banner:ne=``:then=`not empty`+]

(placed multitv modifier in phx plugin map)

[+phx:multitvisempty=`banner`:then=`xxx`:else=`yyy`+] 
[+phx:multitvisnotempty=`banner`:then=`xxx`:else=`yyy`+]

The easiest/hassle free way in my opinion would be inside of multiTV by using emptyOutput and a PHx construct in the outer template.

&emptyOutput=`0` &outerTpl=`tplOuter`

tplOuter

[+wrapper:ne=``:then=`[+wrapper+]`:else=`<img scr="empty.jpg" />`+]

Hmm, the slider script let me think it didn't work..

Thanks, would be nice to add a &emptyRowTpl=`` function. [ed. note: fourroses666 last edited this post 10 years, 2 months ago.]

Do you want to get <img scr="empty.jpg" /> if there is no content in the multiTV?

Should work with the parameters above.

True, but I would like it better that way.
Or to say it some nicer, would be a nice feature. [ed. note: fourroses666 last edited this post 10 years, 2 months ago.]
