Answered IF-THEN rule for DIVs in MODx Evo

I have a DIV like this for images I display with my articles:




Now for my articles I can also have videos:



Now the thing is that I have EITHER an image OR a video with my article, never both! But above code in my template reserves and shows space for both image and video always. So basically when I do not upload a video for a specific article (and thus only have an image), then the "space" for the video will show always like this...

No video but space shows... image

[/img][/img]

When no image then the image space that shows... img2

I do not want that it shows anything there and also not reserves the space for that DIV. The question is how to not have the "space" or the blank area when I do not use either [image] or [video]??

I use MODx Evolution as my CMS.

You can either use a custom snippet to output the entire block if there is a value in the TV, or you can install and use phx, which does pretty much the same thing (is phx built in to the Evo core by now?).

[*video:notempty=`<div class="well">
<video controls="" width="400">
 <source src="[*video*]" type="video/mp4">
  <source src="[*video*]" type="video/ogv">
</video>
   </div>`*]

No, Phx is not in core yet, but I downloaded it and tried your code... unfortunately I cannot get it to work...

It's built-in to the Revo core as "output modifiers", and it usually takes me some time and several trials before I can get one to work right

Most of the time I use this:



(You need PHx)
There is also a default plugin called If.
Somehow almost never use it.
