Hide or show certain sections depending on metadata?
I'm wondering if there's a simple way to hide a section from a page template if a certain metadata is specified.
A bit like with Menu: No which hides a page from the navbar. I'd like to create a Hero Image: No which would disable the top image on a blog post.
Your help is much appreciated :)
For sure, let's say you use the following metadata in your post:
Hero: yes
You can then do this in your template to only show a hero image when 'hero' metadata is set:
{{#entry}}
{{#metadata.hero}}
<img src="...">
{{/metadata.hero}}
{{/entry}}
You could even specify an image URL/path in your hero metadata, and then use that in your template:
Hero: /path/to/image.png
{{#entry}}
{{#metadata.hero}}
<img src="{{metadata.hero}}">
{{/metadata.hero}}
{{/entry}}
I believe that the person was asking about hiding a section from a page, not how to display one from meta
Answered a year ago · Edit answerYes exactly! But David's solution works just fine. Instead of specifying when I dont want something to show, I specify when I do :) If empty, the thing doesn't show.
