Hiding CCK Fields when using Contemplate Module

amariotti — Mon, 08/11/2008 - 15:22

At work I am building some pretty complex content driven pages with Contemplate. I have some node data being displayed in the main content area and the rest in a dynamic block using Views Arguments. To keep a better handle on the data being displayed I am the Contemplate module, which I have found to be an extraordinary module for what it can do.

I ran into an issue today where I wanted to hide the label to the field if the field was empty. After some searching online and digging I couldn't really find anything, so I did a little research on my own and was able to come up with the solution. Here it is:

<?php if ($node->your_field_name[0]['view'] != ""): ?>
      <div class="field-item"><div class="your_label_class">Your label: </div><?php print $node->your_field_name[0]['view'] ?></div>
<?php endif; ?>

Be sure and replace <code>field_your_field_name</code> with your field name. Also be sure and put in your own custom css class for the label to make it your own!

So there it is!

thanks for the intro, i have one question,

your_class_here">your_label_class">

Is that you means we can define any name of the div class here?

Yes, that's where you would

Yes, that's where you would put your class for your label. I wanted to emphasize that so that everyone knows that that can be whatever they need it to be. Guess I should've specified that in the post. :)

Cool! It works perfectly..
