{if} statement for custom field?

[jaeitee]

Could someone please share how I can generate an {if} statement around a custom field?

{$record->customFieldDisplayByKey('distance')|raw}

I'm trying to have it display content if the field has been filled in, and if the field has not been filled in I am attempting to have that whole block of HTML not display. 

I can't use {{if ($value=='distance')}} as the value of distance is a unique number.

You actually just need to type:

{{ if $record->customFieldDisplayByKey('distance') }}
// Something
{{ endif }}

If that doesn’t work for that field, because it returns something even when empty, you can call the field directly.

{{ if $record->field_XX }}
// Something
{{ endif }}

XX is the unique ID of that field.

Thank you very much @Ralf H. the second option worked perfectly!

Alright, I have this working perfectly inside the Display Template, however whenever I try and add a custom field to the recordRow for a Listing Template I encounter errors.

I've tried both:

{{ if $record->customFieldDisplayByKey('distance') }}
  SHOW TEXT
{{endif}}

{{ if $record->field_22 }}
  SHOW TEXT
{{ endif }}

I've tried removing the following: 

{{foreach $row->customFieldsForDisplay('listing') as $fieldId => $fieldValue}}
	{{if $fieldValue}}
		{$fieldValue|raw}
	{{endif}}
{{endforeach}}

Then adding $record->customFieldDisplayByKey('distance') in to a foreach loop and still no luck.

It seems I can't call the fields to the listing template, only to the display template.

In a listing template, use $row instead of $record. 

$row->customFieldsForDisplay('listing') is correct, but make sure that you have set each field to actually show in listing templates. That’s a per-field setting. If you have turned that off, the field won’t show.

@Ralf H. Could you help me out in a similar topic please? http://community.invisionpower.com/topic/408430-if-statement-help-needed/

A step closer,  $row->customFieldDisplayByKey('distance') seems to work however it pulls the formatting from the Display Template box, opposed to the Listing Template box with custom formatting in the ACP.

$row->customFieldDisplayByKey('distance') 

Try:

 $row->customFieldsForDisplay('listing')['distance']
