I have this conditional output in a view:

[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-date-and-time) ne '' )"]- [types field='date-and-time' style='text' format='g:i a '][/types][/wpv-conditional]

I would like the time field to only show if the time is not 12:00AM (meaning client did not set the time). What do I call time that is 00:00 in the field selector? It displays as 12:00AM but not sure how to call it in this statement.

Thanks!

Hi, I think you would have to replace the $(wpcf-date-and-time) syntax to use the types field syntax. This will allow you to test a formatted time, whereas the $(wpcf-date-and-time) syntax would only allow you to test the Unix timestamp. Here's an example:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field="date-and-time" style="text" format="g:i a"][/types]' ne '12:00 am' )"]- [types field='date-and-time' style='text' format='g:i a '][/types][/wpv-conditional]
