MTTags.com

The current date and time at publishing. Date format tags may be applied with the format attribute along with the language attribute. See Chapter C: Date Formats.

A conditional tag that can be used to represent the opposite of any other conditional tag. This tag must be placed within the conditional tag it is associated with.

Displays the current value of a variable set by MTSetVar.

Attributes:

• name - The name of the variable.

A conditional tag that displays its contents if the email addresses of all registered users are required by the weblog.

A conditional tag that displays its contents if the tag specified with the tag attribute returns a value (i.e. is not empty or null)

Note that a value of '0' is not considered a null value for this tag and will cause the its contents to be printed. If you want to test numerical return values, you should instead use MTIfNonZero.

Attributes:

• tag - The tag name to evaluate (with or without the MT prefix)

Other attributes are possible. See third example below.

Examples:

The following will print the entry title as an h2 header if a title was given:

<MTIfNonEmpty tag="EntryTitle">
    <h2><$MTEntryTitle$></h2>
</MTIfNonEmpty>

As with all conditional tags, you can use the MTElse tag inside of MTIfNonEmpty to print something if the value of the tag is empty. Here's a brief example that you might use in an MTEntries block to nicely handle entries without categories:

Category: 
    <MTIfNonEmpty tag="EntryCategory">
        <$MTEntryCategory$>

    <MTElse>
        None
    </MTElse>
    </MTIfNonEmpty>

Finally, if you are testing the value of a tag that has one or more attributes, those attributes can be used with MTIfNonEmpty as well. So, for example, to test

<$MTEntryTitle remove_html="1"$>

you do the following:

<MTIfNonEmpty tag="EntryTitle" remove_html="1">
    <title><$MTEntryTitle remove_html="1"$></title>
</MTIfNonEmpty>

Attributes:

• module - The name of a template module in the current weblog.
• file - The path to an external file on the system. The path can be absolute or relative to the Local Site Path. This file is included at the time your page is built. It should not be confused with dynamic server side includes like that found in PHP.
