Hi,

I created a user form with generic fields. And I would like to create a publication form with a conditional display according to the generic fields (checkbox in my case) encoded by the registered user.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Olivier,

So this conditional group will be used to hide the other fields ?

All you need to do is add the conditional group element to your form and then set the field that you want the conditional to hide/show your data based on. See Screenshot

Please let me know if this helps.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane
I only have access to the fields of the current form but not to the user's field. I need to recover the user field.

Hi Olivier,

I'm not quite sure I follow.

The fields that you want to hide in the conditionals on the user form are they not user custom fields ?

Provide a little more context for me please.

Thanks,
Shane

it is not a condition in a user form but in a publication form.
The condition should display something different depending on the user who is logged on.
Thanks

Hi Shane,
Do you have a solution to my problem ?
Thanks a lot

Hi Olivier,

I believe I understand now. So the conditional is dependent on that the value of the custom field is on that current user who is accessing the form.

This is possible but you will need to edit your form in the expert mode. However just confirm this and i'll draft up the required shortcode to help you out.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane,
Yes thats exactly that. I am in expert mode ...

Hi Olivier,

You can do it like this.

[wpv-conditional if="( '[types usermeta="myfield"][/types]' eq 'some value' )"]

CRED FIELD GOES HERE

[/wpv-conditional]

So what you need to do is to add this to your form, then replace [types usermeta="myfield"][/types] with the field that gives your field data.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,

Hi Shane,

Unfortunately, it does not work.
When I try to directly display the user field outside of a condition it does not work either.
It looks like he can not find anything.

Thanks,

Hi Olivier,

Would you mind allowing me to have access to the site to check on this for you ?

Thanks,

Private fields.

Also let me know what page the form is on.

Hi Olivier,

I tried logging in with the credentials you provided but they don't seem to work.

Could you check on them and let me know if they work for you ?

Thanks,
Shane

i edit the private message with the good mdp.
Thanks

Hi Olivier,

The credentials still don't work.

Could you send me a screenshot of what exactly you added to the form ?

I suspect that you may have just copied this directly to the form
[types usermeta="myfield"][/types]

If so then you need to replace "myfield" with the slug of the field you want to retrieve from the user. ALso please verify that the credentials work for you.

Thanks,
Shane
