I have a custom post [seasons] (id 73). It has one post field [choose season] with 3 values [High Season, Mid Season, Low Season].

So depending on the season it must conditionally display the Price for that Season in a view.

The posts are not related.

In the view I am able to successfully display the information (as a test to see if the information can be used in the view), but I am not able to use it in a conditional output.

I attempted to use get_post(), but this was the debug output:

####################
wpv-conditional attributes
####################
Array
(
[if] => ( get_post(73) = 'Low Season' )
[debug] => true
)

####################
Debug information
####################
--------------------
Original expression: ( get_post(73) = 'Low Season' )
--------------------

Help will be greatly appreciated!

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

As I understand:
- You have field choose season field using which you set the current season for your custom post seasons - correct?

Now, you want to compare the current season set using choose season field using conditional statement - correct? If this is true then:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field="choose-season" output="raw"][/types]' eq 'Low Season'  )"]
     [types field="low-season-price" output="raw"][/types]
[/wpv-conditional]

[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field="choose-season" output="raw"][/types]' eq 'Mid Season'  )"]
     [types field="mid-season-price" output="raw"][/types]
[/wpv-conditional]


[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field="choose-season" output="raw"][/types]' eq 'High Season'  )"]
     [types field="high-season-price" output="raw"][/types]
[/wpv-conditional]

Thank you. You put me on the correct path. What worked for me was:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field='choose-season' id='73'][/types]' eq 'High Season' )"]From R [types field='high-season-price' output="raw"][/types] [types field='payment-per' output='raw'][/types][/wpv-conditional]
[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field='choose-season' id='73'][/types]' eq 'Mid Season' )"]From R [types field='mid-season-price' output="raw"] [/types][types field='payment-per' output='raw'][/types][/types][/wpv-conditional]
[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field='choose-season' id='73'][/types]' eq 'Low Season' )"]From R [types field='low-season-price' output="raw"] [/types][types field='payment-per' output='raw'][/types][/types][/wpv-conditional]
