AND OR conditionals in <perch:if> not working

Lunchbird · Oct 1st 2019

Hey all, would really appreciate a sanity check.

I'm using the blog app; and I'm checking whether two post fields are filled out like so:

Code

<perch:if exists="yt-video OR image-3">
CODE
</perch:if>

This does not work.

Checking each individually like so does work.

Code

<perch:if exists="yt-video">
CODE
</perch:if>
<perch:if exists="image-3">
CODE
</perch:if>

Debug shows nothing that can help me.

Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong?

Hello,

Field IDs should only include letters, numbers and underscores. Your field IDs have hyphens - in them, so it is possible Perch does not see these as IDs when evaluating yt-video OR image-3.

Hello hus_hmd,

You were correct, the hyphens were creating problems. Thanks for the help!
