This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
Display content according to custom field values
Solution:
You can try wpv-conditional shortcode like this:
[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-jobsconnected-company-page-url) eq '' )"] No Postions Posted [/wpv-conditional] [wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-jobsconnected-company-page-url) eq '' )" evaluate="false"] <a href="[types field='jobsconnected-company-page-url' output='raw'][/types]">Click here to view</a> [/wpv-conditional]

Tell us what you are trying to do?
I was working on this with a Toolset supporter, but did not get back to the issue in time and it closed. Here is the thread: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/parent-child-post-relationship/
I am trying to get the "Single Booth" content template display hidden link;">Click here to view</a if no URL is submitted in the new booth form.
If a URL is submitted in the new booth form, I want that URL to display instead.
I looked into the sanitize filter (https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/sanitize_title), but I am not sure how to use it because I am not familiar with PHP and it seems like the post form takes html (perhaps toolset conditional statements take PHP? )
However, I did manage to use regular toolset conditional statements to get a result very close to what I am looking for. Basically, if a user doesn't input a URL for the company url field, it will automatically input their company url on our site
[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-jobsconnected-company-page-url) eq '#' )"]
<a href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>">Click here to view</a
[/wpv-conditional]
However, if they have a URL to their own website, they can put that in and that URL will show.
[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-jobsconnected-company-page-url) ne '#' )"]
<a href="[types field='jobsconnected-company-page-url' output='raw'][/types]">Click here to view</a>
[/wpv-conditional]
This almost works, but for some reason, if the leave the URL field blank, the
[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-jobsconnected-company-page-url) eq '#' )"]
<a href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>">Click here to view</a
[/wpv-conditional]
seems to have an odd ending on the url
?cred_referrer_form_id=3110
but this does NOT happen if I simply stick the href link in the content template
<a href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>">Click here to view</a
Thanks!
Is there any documentation that you are following?
Is there a similar example that we can see?
hidden link
[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-jobsconnected-company-page-url) eq '#' )"]
<a href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>">Click here to view</a
[/wpv-conditional]
[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-jobsconnected-company-page-url) ne '#' )"]
<a href="[types field='jobsconnected-company-page-url' output='raw'][/types]">Click here to view</a>
[/wpv-conditional]
What is the link to your site?
live site: hidden link
dev site: hidden link
Hi Luo,
Thank you for your patience. I am not a developer and have had to learn Toolset because the developer I hired was unable to use it correctly. Please bear with me if I make silly mistakes such as using value "#" in my code (it was not intentional).
With your help, I was able to get the Jobs Connected page to display if the URL is empty. However, for some reason, the message shows that no positions are listed. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I am editing the single booth content template (hidden link).
Hi, this seems to have fixed it showing "click here" and "no positions", but now it only shows "no positions". The sample booth "diane's place" should only show "click here". For some reason, your code on the bottom right works.
hidden link
Yes it is very close. The test the post, without URL field value works correctly.:
hidden link
However, the only problem is that, on the page with the google url, the "career fair page" text has changed from "Wayne State Virtual Career Fair" to "POST with JobsConnected Company Page URL". Can we make this still say "Wayne State Virtual Career Fair" and link back to the career fair page? I cannot find the change in the code, so I am unable to change it.
