I am using the product module for our website and would like to show a link to instructions (pdf) only if the "instruction field" contains a value (link)..

This is what i currently have but it shows "PDF" for everything including ones which do not contain a link in the field. (Duh..)

What is the correct if/else statement one would use for something like that?

<a target="_blank" href="{$entry->fields.instructions->value}">PDF</a>

Thanks again!!

Code: Select all

{if $entry->fields.instructions->value != ''}
<a target="_blank" href="{$entry->fields.instructions->value}">PDF</a>{/if}

Well that was quick and simple! Thank you!

Alternatively: {if !empty($entry->fields.instructions->value)}
This also checks whether the property/field is defined at all. https://www.virendrachandak.com/techtal ... s-is_null/
