Hi,

I'm trying to use this code:

[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-links) ne '' )" index="0"][types field='links' output='raw' index='0' separator=', '][/types][/wpv-conditional]

Instead of show "links" field value, on the frontend it shows this: [types field='links' output='raw' index='0' separator=', '][/types]

How could I use types shortcodes inside a conditional?

Thank you

Hi Luis,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Can you let me know the context under which you're using this ? Are you using a content template to display the contents of your post?

Is the conditional added to that content template.

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Shane

Hi,

I'm using a content template from Visual Composer.

Thank you Shane!

Hi Luis,

Would you mind allowing me to have admin access to the website so that I can have a more detailed look at this for you ?

Please where applicable please provide me with a link to an example page where I can see the issue.

I've enabled the private fields for your next response.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi,

I solved this problem. When I try it with Toolset content templates, it works fine.

If I put same code inside Visual Composer page, I see shortcodes instead of field values.

Any idea how to fix it in Visual Composer? By default your plugin changes [ and ] {!{ and }!}, but any of them are working fine. I see shortcodes in both cases.

Thank you!

Hi Luis,

Perhaps you can use our Toolset Content templates and then using the visual builder edit the content templates.

There should be an option on the content template to edit it with Visual Composer. Are you using the Block editor on the Content template?

If so then you will perhaps need to enable the Classic Editor. Under Toolset -> Settings scroll to Editing experience and select the 3rd option. From there just select Classic Editor for Editor to use for Content Templates.

Thanks,
Shane
