Hello Everyone,

I need to place in some logic (like if then else) in my tpl code, is there a possibility of doing such a thing??

Thanks in advance

You can build a if-then-else with template functions:

{section show=eq($val, 1)}
do something
{section-else}
do something else
{/section}

if you want to test further you can either use a switch statement or embed further sections:

{section show=eq($val, 1)}
do something
{section-else}

{section show=eq($val, 2)}
do more
{section-else}
do even more
{/section}

{/section}

you dont need to resort to php for just this type of logic.
