The following conditional statements will only work in templates which support the arguments and parameters. Statements can be expanded using AND, OR, and <xen:else />. Replacing == with != in the following examples will change the condition from true to false. For example, <xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} == x"> for true, <xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} != x">for false. Where an argument only contains a single parameter, inserting a ! before the parameter has the same effect. For example, <xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id}"> for true, <xen:if is="!{$visitor.user_id}"> for false. When working with arrays, the ! is placed just before the argument. For example, <xen:if is="in_array({$forum.node_id}, array(x, y, z))"> for true, <xen:if is="!in_array({$forum.node_id}, array(x, y, z))"> for false. Depending on the template being worked with, you may need to use $user instead of $visitor; $visitor is always the record for the current logged in user, $user is the record being processed (e.g. message author, member list, list of online users, etc.). When working with the PAGE_CONTAINER template, you can pass variables from the view templates (category_view, forum_view, thread_view, etc.) using xen:container. The same applies to any templates which are included in the PAGE_CONTAINER template; the header or ad_header templates for example. To use the $forum.node_id variable for example, you would add this to the PAGE_CONTAINER template: <xen:container var="$forumId">{$forum.node_id}</xen:container>. Similarly for the $threadId variable, you would add this: <xen:container var="$threadId">{$thread.thread_id}</xen:container>. Where variables such as x, y, or z have been used, these must be replaced with actual values. How can I show content just to logged in members and hide it from guests?
