Template help? was created by Aaron
Trying to create my own template. Currently the default template has a very nice way to display the extra fields IF they exist for each item. I want to duplicate that within my individual fields... I am able to limit but it seems that if ONE field in any record is blank, it hides that field for ALL records..

for purposes of my template, I had to change that and list each field separately (for placement as well as to limit guest access).
