Sorry for a noob question and one that has been brought up so many times but I've tried all that I've read and it's not working.

In my template I don't have the Extra Fields at the bottom but instead are separated out individually in different areas of the template and I call them with:This works fine but I'm not able to hide these if empty. What if statement would I use?
Thank you!

something like
if(!empty($str))
might just do the trick

Thanks for the reply, I tried that but it's still showing, I may be doing something wrong though.

I've added to the code in my example above, the end result will have the extrafield wrapped in a span and wording before it. When the field is empty I was needing to hide the span and wording. This is currently what I have:
Thanks again!

try changin $str to $custom[2]->value
the code i send was for an illustration
Play around with it a bit, i havent tested

Wesley, were you able to figure this one out? I need to do this too.

To display extra fields individually and in different places on the page I used this post..

getk2.org/documentation/tips-a-tricks/item/221-custom-admin-templates-and-calling-specific-extra-field-data

The to hide them again I use..

<?php if($extrafields != "") { ?>
<strong>Other Date Info:</strong>
<?php echo $extrafields[94];?>
<?php } ?>

I'm not great at php but this seems to do it. I believe this hides everything unless there is a value.

I'm experiencing the same thing... I want to hide the empty extra field and I tried countless ways but no success. Below is my code... What should be changed/added/deleted?


<ul>
<?php foreach ($this->item->extra_fields as $key=>$extraField): ?>
<?php if($extraField->value): ?>
<li class="<?php echo ($key%2) ? "odd" : "even"; ?> type<?php echo ucfirst($extraField->type); ?> group<?php echo $extraField->group; ?>">
<span class="itemExtraFieldsLabel"><?php echo $extraField->name; ?>:</span>
<span class="itemExtraFieldsValue"><?php echo $extraField->value; ?></span>
</li>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

This bugged the hell out of me. I've posted a solution here:
