Hi All,

I'm trying to use the {if}{/if} logic to display form submissions on the front end by displaying ONLY fields that have data. If I use the {if{field:value}}<p>{field:caption}: {field:value}{/if} logic, it works nicely for text data. However, if I use the same logic on an uploaded photo field, whatever's between the {if}{/if} ALWAYS displays because the {field:path} value defaults to www.mydomain.com/ regardless of whether an image has been uploaded or not.

Is there another value other than field:value or field:path that holds JUST the name of the uploaded file?(Which I'm assuming should be an empty string or null if no photo was uploaded and therefore the {if}{/if} logic would work properly.)

Thanks!

I have tested this on a local installation and the syntax works properly with the {field:value} placeholder. I have entered the following value in a 'View Submissions' menu item's Row Layout:
{if {file:value}}
<tr>
	<td>{details}{file:value}{/details}</td>
	<td>{detailspdf}Download PDF{/detailspdf}</td>
</tr>
{/if}

Please note that you need to enclose the entire row in the {if}{/if} syntax for this to work.

PS: remember to replace 'file' (in the '{file:value}' statement) with the actual name of your field.

By applying the scenario described above, submissions that have not had a file uploaded will not get displayed.

If your example is exactly the same as your code, you are missing a space after the first if
