Tell us what you are trying to do?

I'm trying to create a custom field to be used with my courses templates. I have a question asking if the course is currently 'open' or 'closed'. based on how the clients answers that question when creating new courses, I want the registration link to be visible ONLY if she indicates the course is OPEN.

A secondary issue is how to use the existing field types to create a link with a fixed URL destination? I know how to add a button to the content template, but in order for the button to be conditionally displayed, I think I need to be able to use one of the form fields to make the button / link. That one seems a bit tricky to me. Would be nice if we had an HTML snippet field type instead of only the WYSIWYG editor.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

haven't found anything concrete on my specific need.

Is there a similar example that we can see?

not that I can find.

What is the link to your site?

hidden link

please refer to Toolset > Content Templates > Course BioBasics.

Do you know that you can display the conditional content using the [wpv-conditional] shortcode.

For example:

[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-budget) eq '50' )"] 
Your output
 [/wpv-conditional]
