Hi Team, I need to create a dynamic shortcode, so depending on field values, instruct the system which layout to use. I’ve only ever created a shorcode to check if a value is ‘equal to’, but I need to check if the value of a particular field is ‘between’ 2 values.
For equal to, I would use this:
layout=[if 7860 equals=”8″]”53″[/if 7860]How would I write the shortcode if I wanted to use layout 53 if the value of field ID 7860 is greater than 49, AND less than 101?
Thank you!
B.Hi!
Okay so, you have too many variables for Formidable’s shortcode Conditions, so you’ll need to use some form level conditional logic.
Add two fields to your form, make them visible to “Administrators” so users wont see them.
Set the default values of the fields to 53 & 54 respectfully.
. For field 53, set conditional logic to be “SHOW this field if ALL of the following match:
– A is less than 11
– B is less than 11
. For field 54, set conditional logic to be “SHOW this field if ALL of the following match:
– A is less than 11
– B is greater than 10
– B is less than 21Then, for your PRO2PDF shortcode…
. layout=[A][B]Which ever field matches it’s conditional logic will be visible to administrators (hidden to users) and the other field will be blank so your layout will result in layout=53 or layout=54.
We remain at your service.
To extend the above functionality further, you could add a hidden calculated field to the form, we’ll call it [123]…
. Set the calculated field to[A]+[B]Then, for your PRO2PDF shortcode…
.layout=[123]And then you could use Formidable’s conditional shortcode to create or not create the PDF merge link…
[if 123 greater_than=0][formidable-download form="abcde" dataset=[id] layout=[123]][/if 123]We remain at your service.
Glad it worked for you and always happy to help. Let us know if you need anything, as we remain at your service.
