Checking Custom Field

[mstella1]

Hi,

I'm trying to test a custom field so I can display text accordingly but not having any luck.

If the custom field is empty I don't want anything to show. If there is anything in the field I want the text to display.

Maybe there is a better way to do this I am just stumped right now. Custom Fields are assigned.

<mvt:if expr="len(trim(l.settings:product:customfield_values:customfields:MsgLn5)) LE 0">
Show nothing
<mvt:else>
<li><mvt:item name="customfields" param="Read_Product_Code(l.settings:product:code,' MsgLn5', g.MsgLn5)" />&mvte:global:MsgLn5;</li>
</mvt:if>

Thanks

Would "<mvt:exit />" work versus the "Show nothing" ????

Oh I am not familiar with that way. If I am following you then yes, "show nothing" was just my way of trying to explain this LOL!

How would I incorporate that?

try just:

<mvt:if expr="l.settings:product:customfield_values:customfields:MsgLn5">
Show nothing
<mvt:else>
<li><mvt:item name="customfields" param="Read_Product_Code(l.settings:product:code,' MsgLn5', g.MsgLn5)" />&mvte:global:MsgLn5;</li>
</mvt:if>

and also test right before with
[&mvt:product:customfield_values:customfields:Ms gLn 5;]<br>
