[Resolved] Conditional Fields in CRED form based on Selected Taxonomy

I'd like to make certain fields show in a form based on the custom taxonomy term selected from a select dropdown. If "Video & Audio Podcasts" is selected, I'd like the associated fields to show up in the form, otherwise they will be hidden. I've tried to implement this on the following page:

hidden link

...using the following code:

[cred_show_group if="($(submission-type) eq 'Video & Audio Podcasts' )" mode='fade-slide']

<div class="form-group">
<label>Video Link</label>
[cred_field field='video-link' post='submissions' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>

<div class="form-group">
<label>Audio Link</label>
[cred_field field='audio-link' post='submissions' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>
[/cred_show_group]

The fields are being hidden as expected but I cannot get them to show up using the custom expression above. The slug for the Custom Taxonomy is 'submission-type' and the slug for the term is 'audio-visual' which I've also tried to use in the above custom expression without success.

Can you please let me know how to accomplish this properly?

Thanks

Also tried this:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-post-taxonomy type='submission-type' format='slug']' eq 'audio-visual' )"]
<div class="form-group">
<label>Video Link</label>
[cred_field field='video-link' post='submissions' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>

<div class="form-group">
<label>Audio Link</label>
[cred_field field='audio-link' post='submissions' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>
[/wpv-conditional]

per this page: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/new-custom-tax-not-displayed-in-layout-front-end-but-only-in-backend/

Ok I solved this using the Taxonomy ID instead of the slug.

Actually, maybe you can tell me the syntax for an expression that has multiple values...I can't get this to work yet:

For example the following should show these fields if the taxonomy term does not have an ID of 18, 12, 17 or 16. It works fine for a single ID but not for multiple IDs. How do I do create an expression for multiple terms conditionals?

[php][cred_show_group if="($(submission-type) ne ('18','12','17','16') )" mode='fade-slide']
<div class="form-group">
<label>Course Title & Number</label>
[cred_field field='course-title' post='submissions' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>
[/cred_show_group][php]

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - you can use OR logical operator to build multiple conditions.

For example:

[cred_show_group if="($(submission-type) ne '18')  OR ($(submission-type) ne '12') OR ($(submission-type) ne '17') OR  ($(submission-type) ne '16')" mode='fade-slide']
<div class="form-group">
<label>Course Title & Number</label>
[cred_field field='course-title' post='submissions' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
</div>
[/cred_show_group]

Ok, I actually ended up using an Array instead, like this:

[cred_show_group if="($(submission-type) ne  ARRAY('18','12','17','16') )"  mode='fade-slide']

It seems to do the trick. Is this ok?

I have another question regarding this form but will start a new thread.

Yes - it looks Ok. I gave you simple solution using OR but with ARRAY() it will work as well.
