Conditional with all_day

Dave 3 Jun 2014 09:54 question, complete

Hi Low,

I have two channels using the same channel-fields, called "items" and "events".
In case of an event i want to show the event-date. So far so good, but i'd like to show only the start-date for events that only lasts one day (all_day).

So i wrote this conditional:

{if channel_short_name == "events"}

{if datum:all_day } Hele dag {datum:start_date format="%j %F"} {/if}

{datum:start_date format="%j %F"} - {datum:end_date format="%j %F"}
{/if}

If I use this the phrase 'Hele dag" will appear and so will the date 3 times!

When I use

{if channel_short_name == "events"}

{if datum:all_day } Hele dag {datum:start_date format="%j %F"} {if:else}

{datum:start_date format="%j %F"} - {datum:end_date format="%j %F"}
{/if}


The output is 0 entries???

I tried this also

{if channel_short_name == "events" AND datum:all_day}

Hele dag {datum:start_date format="%j %F"} {if:else}

{datum:start_date format="%j %F"} - {datum:end_date format="%j %F"}
{/if}


But the all entries (items and events) will get a date or when no date assigned a "-"

What's the best way to write this conditional?

   Your second example misses a closing {/if} statement. This code should work:
   
   

   {if datum:all_day} 
      Hele dag {datum:start_date format="%j %F"} 
    {if:else} 
      {datum:start_date format="%j %F"} - {datum:end_date format="%j %F"}  
    {/if}

   
   
   Possibly wrapped inside your channel_short_name conditional.
