how to stop a 'view' from showing a field?

Hello listers,
Hope this is the right place to ask this question. I am building a theme and I have little icons that I want to have appearing when there is a 'File - CCK' field present. The field is optional in the content-type. I have created a view for the page that shows the content, and when the file-cck field is empty, it still shows all the surrounding <div> and <a href> tags, which triggers my CSS and then I still show the little custom PDF icon; only I want it to be blank. When I click on the View for the field: file-cck (generic files) I only see the options: - Exclude from display - Rewrite output field - Output this field as a link - Trim to max length - Link this to its node - Label [none/drop down] - Format [generic files] I can't see from this list any way to have it be conditional; ie: only display Field formatting [Div+a href] if there is actually any data present. Thanks for your help, hopefully this is an easy one. :) Kind, _______________________________________________ themes mailing list themes@... http://lists.drupal.org/mailman/listinfo/themes |

If this is for views 2 you can provide a template file that over rides
the theming for that field, click "information" (next to "Theme" in "Basic settings" column) for the file name(s) you can use. _______________________________________________ themes mailing list themes@... http://lists.drupal.org/mailman/listinfo/themes |

Sebastian,
You'll probably need to do this through views template. Here's the handbook page on this theming: http://drupal.org/node/352970 Basically you'll want to target that field with a template and put in conditional code or otherwise change the tags surrounding the field output. (If you have any questions after reading the handbook page let me know, as I wrote a lot of what is there and I'm looking for ways to improve anything that's unclear.) --ivan -- Rootwork: Powering grassroots networks from the bottom up ivan@... http://www.rootwork.org phone: 202.730.9465 Skype: rootwork Twitter: rootwork On Apr 8, 2009, at 8:56 PM, sebastian wrote: > Hello listers, > > Hope this is the right place to ask this question. > > I am building a theme and I have little icons that I want to have > appearing when there is a 'File - CCK' field present. > > The field is optional in the content-type.

Thank you Steve,
I've looked into the theming of the fields, and I have copied a new: "view-view-fields.tpl.php" file to my theme folder. I can get it to react, but I am lacking some basic PHP wisdom. I want to make a conditional statement, so that if the "title" property of the field is empty, don't display anything. My problem is I can't see how to access the title. This is definitely wrong [line 2 is the important one], but here is how I am trying it: <?php if ( $field->class == "field-pdf-fid" ): ?> <?php if ( $field->title != "" ): ?> <<?php print $field->inline_html;?> class="views-field-<?php print $field->class; ?>"> <?php if ($field->label): ?> <label class="views-label-<?php print $field->class; ?>"> <?php print $field->label; ?>: </label> <?php endif; ?> <?php // $field->element_type is either SPAN or DIV depending upon whether or not // the field is a 'block' element type or 'inline' element type. ?> <<?php print $field->element_type; ?> class="field-content"><?php print $field->content; ?></<?php print $field->element_type; ?>> </<?php print $field->inline_html;?>> <?php endif; ?> <?php endif; ?> Thanks a bunch Steve! p.s. I can't see how to combine && and || conditionals or 'else' statements in PHP code written like this without throwing a huge error. I'm used to seeing PHP code written more as a flow without constant <?PHP : ?> breaks... anyways, not critical for now as I can work around it, but it is bugging me. Also, isn't the "->" an assignment operation? It's use here baffles me... Yes: I'm a wee green newbie php person, sigh. Kind, Sebastian.

Hi Ivan,
Thanks for the link, I've been trussing about for a few hours, but I can't get anything meaningful to output. I added: <?php print '<pre>' . htmlentities(print_r($rows, 1)) . '</pre>'; ?> To the views-view.tpl.php and got this output: Array ( [0] => template_file [1] => variables [2] => template_files [3] => view [4] => zebra [5] => id [6] => directory [7] => is_admin [8] => is_front [9] => logged_in [10] => db_is_active [11] => user [12] => rows [13] => css_name [14] => name [15] => display_id [16] => empty [17] => exposed [18] => header [19] => footer [20] => more [21] => feed_icon [22] => attachment_before [23] => attachment_after [24] => pager [25] => admin_links_raw [26] => admin_links [27] => dom_id ) Which doesn't really help me [i think], unless I am expected to dig into each level from here?? If I look at the comments in the Views->theme->information->views-view.tpl.php I see no change to the comments written there, though I do see the above Array stuff re-printed to the comments area. If I put the above code instead into: views-view-fields.tpl.php Then I get no output change when I run the page [strage?] and if i look at Views->theme->information->views-view-fields.tpl.php or at views-view.tpl.php I see no change to the comments at the top, nor any output at the bottom [ie no change at all] Am I putting it in the wrong file? If I try add be 'smart' and add: <?php print '<pre>' . htmlentities(print_r($fields, 1)) . '</pre>'; ?> To the bottom of the: views-view-fields.tpl.php file, I break the page... [get a 100% "white" page] Sigh, Still trying to figure out how I can simply identify variables... :P Thanks! Sebastian.

Sigh, I'm a fairly smart person, at least, I thought I was... but the
more I try and figure out things in Drupal, the more lost I become. My site is 90%+ done, but these last ordeals are really painful to unravel... Where is the phptemplate_preprocess_node? I've been looking everywhere to find this, is it a field in the admin tool? or: A *.tpl.php file I am supposed to make from scratch? ie: http://drupal.org/node/223430 If its the later, I have no idea what is going on with all these 10 preprocessors... are there examples of these files?

Sebastian , You may get better response in support forum. phptemplate_preprocess_node() should go inside your template.php Google and Drupal handbook is your friends =)
/* this goes into template.php */
function phptemplate_preprocess_node(&$vars, $hook) { $node_classes = array(); // may need to check content of $vars['node']->field_MYFIELD?
if ($vars['node']->type == "YOUR_CONTENT_TYPE" && $vars['node']->field_MYFIELD) { $node_classes[] = 'node-no-MYFEILD'; }
$node_classes = array_filter($node_classes); $vars['node_classes'] = implode(' ', $node_classes); } /* this goes in your node.tpl.php */
<div ... class="node <?php print $node_classes; ?> ..."> Cheers, CK Ng forDrupal Premium Themes (http://fordrupal.com) - we make drupal beautiful On Fri, Apr 10, 2009 at 2:53 PM, sebastian <inforazor@...> wrote: Sigh, I'm a fairly smart person, at least, I thought I was... but the more I try and figure out things in Drupal, the more lost I become.
