Good morning Patrick,

I am having and Issue trying to finish my template. I commented this in a point in my previous post.

I created a Single Select List Field named {$ESTADO}.

It has 4 "Option Values" with each "Option Display Text". Please check the attached image...

And This is my smarty code based on yours :


{if $ESTADO =='EnObras'}
<styleUrl>#obras</styleUrl>
{elseif $ESTADO =='Construido'}
<styleUrl>#construido</styleUrl>
{elseif $ESTADO =='Propuesta'}
<styleUrl>#propuesta</styleUrl>
{elseif $ESTADO =='Concurso'}
<styleUrl>#concurso</styleUrl>
{/if}


Why can not make the <styleurl> to show?
Since some values and text are the same I can tell it doesn t work with both selectors.

What can I do to solve this?

Thank you for the patience you had with me...

Mmmhhh, this code looks OK and the values are different. Can you check that:
1) Selections have been made in the forms.... just to be sure ;)
2) The output without the IF statement, to know that the values actually output (ie no typo)
3) Test with just {if}{/if} per value. Don't ask why but I found that that sometimes does work.

I know we developed our own Smarty modifier at some point. You could give that a try also.

Please read the F2C documentation before asking questions! Thank you if you've done so ;)

ok ... I got something...

I can confirm {$ESTADO} calls the "option value" not the text.

I put {$ESTADO} in the description just to check what value is... and now the styleurl is showing as it should.

If I remove the field {$ESTADO} from description the "{/if}" stop working... styleurl stop to appear.

In other words ... putting the field {$ESTADO} somewhere and the {/if}´s works perfect... without {/if} don t work ...

I tried also with no succes this as you said:


{if $ESTADO =='EnObras'}
<styleUrl>#obras</styleUrl>
{/if}
{if $ESTADO =='Construido'}
<styleUrl>#construido</styleUrl>
{/if}
{if $ESTADO =='Propuesta'}
<styleUrl>#propuesta</styleUrl>
{/if}
{if $ESTADO =='Concurso'}
<styleUrl>#concurso</styleUrl>
{/if}


Thank you again

The output is as per documentation always the VALUE. For TEXT you need to add the _TEXT to the template parameter.

I don't understand: "In other words ... putting the field {$ESTADO} somewhere and the {/if}´s works perfect... without {/if} don t work ..."

Do you mean that the above code to render the different styleURL with the {if} statements only works if you render the {$ESTADO} somewhere in your template? This would be very (very) strange.... You are sure it's not a cache issue? So render the feed without caching and clearing browser cache.
Please read the F2C documentation before asking questions! Thank you if you've done so ;)

Yes ... this is exactly what happens ... when {$ESTADO} is somewhere in the template the if statements works perfectly. If is not present it stops working... I am sure is nothing about cache by the way...

I think I am gonna cry ... This never happened before?
Accepted Answer Pending Moderation
it's just code, not worth crying over ;)

For now simply add <div style="display:none;">{$ESTADO}</div>. This should make it work while we see if we can reproduce the issue.

Was joking of course :p ... But Always strange things happened to me ...
I used million times if statements in f2c pro and of course this never happens...
I am using 6.13 ... just for the record... maybe it s related...

Will use this for a solution for a while... Feel free to enter in my site to check if necessary of course...

Thanks for your time
