Tell us what you are trying to do?

I want to implement the following Conditional checks on a different view on my site:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/hide-a-view-using-old-fashioned-views-not-conditional-blocks/

However my new view has the grid code in the Loop Editor:
<div class="row">
<wpv-loop>
<div class="col-md-6 col-xl-4">
[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-category-area-page"]
</div>
</wpv-loop>
</div>

The Loop Item code is in the Template for the View... and no matter where I put this Conditional code the whole thing disappears.
The code in the link above is the same code that I am using but instead of the Loop Editor it is in the Loop Item... how do I make this work?

Should I have both the grid code and loop item code in the Loop Editor so that I can apply this conditional check? Thanks.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

As shared by Waqar with previous ticket, you should wrap the view's loop code as given under:

<div class="row">
<wpv-loop>
[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-booking-until) gte 'TODAY()' )"]
<div class="col-md-6 col-xl-4">
[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-category-area-page"]
</div>
[/wpv-conditional]
</wpv-loop>
</div>

Can you please try that and see if that works as expected.

Hi Minesh,

The whole grid disappears from the page (link above)

You want to compare the custom date field with today's date - correct?

Can you please clear your requirement first and share admin access details so I can check whats going wrong with your setup..

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

I checked and I see that you set your view to display posts from post type "Shows":
=> hidden link

And the custom field 'booking-until' is the part of intermediary post type. To access the intermediary post type custom field value you will have to use the shortcode:

[types field='booking-until' output='raw' item='@post-venue.intermediary'][/types]

So, I've adjusted the conditional shortcode as given under:

<div class="row">
<wpv-loop>
[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field='booking-until' output='raw' item='@post-venue.intermediary'][/types]' gte 'TODAY()' )"]
<div class="col-md-6 col-xl-4">
[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-category-area-page"]
</div>
[/wpv-conditional]

</wpv-loop>
</div>
 

I can see its working now: hidden link

Can you please confirm it works at your end as well.
