Hi!

I have a blog and I added

intro

attribute to the

log

class, but some of blog entries can be very short and I can leave the

log

attribute empty, if it's not empty user will see More... link, it's it's empty he won't see More.

I have this piece of code in the template:

{section-show=$node.object.data_map.log}
        <a href={concat( "content/view/full/", $node.node_id )|ezurl}>More...</a>
    {/section}

But I don't see More...

I haven't tested it myself, but you could try adding a content-check, like this:

{section-show=$node.object.data_map.log.content}
        <a href={concat( "content/view/full/", $node.node_id )|ezurl}>More...</a>
    {/section}

Did you mean to use 'section-show'? It should be 'section show', without the hyphen.

Thank you, I was wrong 'bout hyphen, I removed it, but now I see More... everywhere, even if a particular entry doesn't have LOG, More... is shown. Is something wrong with my condition? By the way, I tried log.content and got the same result.

Try

{section show=$node.object.data_map.log.content.has_content}
    <a href={concat( "content/view/full/", $node.node_id )|ezurl}>More...</a>
{/section}

I tried that, but now I don't see More even if an entry has contents in the log attribute. Probably it's worth creating a checkbox attribute that will control the thing I want, or is there still some other ways of doing that?

I've just re-read your initial post and noticed that the attribute is intro and the class is log. Is this correct? If so the code should be

{section show=$node.object.data_map.intro.content.has_content}
    <a href={concat( "content/view/full/", $node.node_id )|ezurl}>More...</a>
{/section}

What version of Ez are you using? This code will only work in 3.4.X
