Conditional on PROD Page

[mark462]

I'm using 5.5 with Toolkit. I've tried many different functions, but can't get a conditional to display correctly on the PROD (product) page.

What I want to do is display link A if the category is A, but display link B if category does not equal A.

Obviously, more complicated than that. But, I want to display a link to women's size chart if the product does not equal the menswear category.

Any suggestions?

I've tried many variations to no avail:

<mvt:item name="toolkit" param="childof|parentfound|g.Category_Code" />
<mvt:if expr="g.parentfound EQ 'menswear'">
        <li><a href="images/howtomeasure_men.jpg" data-lightbox="image-1" title="For Him - How to Measure">How to Measure</a><br />
    <mvt:else>
        <li><a href="images/howtomeasure_women.jpg" data-lightbox="image-1" title="For Her - How to Measure">How to Measure</a><br />
    </mvt:if>

Re: Conditional on PROD Page

The code you have there is looking at the current categories parent category. Is that what you want tot do?

If you just want to test for the current category you could do something like this:

<mvt:if expr="g.Category_Code EQ 'menswear' ">
  //the current category is menswear
<mvt:else>
 // the current category is not menswear
</mvt:if>

Since a product can be part of multiple categories, a better way to do this would be to create a custom product field to determine if the how to measure link should be displayed, and if it should be mens or womens.

What about reading the canonical category code for the product?
