Hello

Edit files:

item.php OR
item_html5.php OR
category_items.php OR
category_items_html5.php OR

And add in them code like:

Code:

if ( isset($item->fieldvalues[45]) && count($item->fieldvalues[45]) )
{
   if ($item->fieldvalues[45][0] == 'somevalue')
   {
      echo FlexicontentFields::getFieldDisplay($item, 'some_field_name');
   }
}

45 is the id of the field that controls showing the HTML of the field with name 'some_field_name'

Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

Also

If field 45 has multiple values and you would like to check them all,
then use:

Code:

if ( isset($item->fieldvalues[45]) && count($item->fieldvalues[45]) )
{
   if (in_array('somevalue', $item->fieldvalues[45]))
   {
      echo FlexicontentFields::getFieldDisplay($item, 'some_field_name');
   }
}
