This module is perfect. It basically does what I want, but the wrong way :-\

Does anyone know if it's possible to have an inverse option on this module, so that:

If I have a CCK field that isn't empty (named 'info_body' - a recursive field, so I can't use a re-write in this instance), I can add field above (named 'info_title') using this module that will only display content if the other field 'info_body' has something in it?

Thanks,
Craig

Interesting, we could add a "negate" option :)

I put together a patch for a "reverse" function. If I could get someone to review this, I'll commit it to the 7.x-1.x branch. The behavior is as follows:

  • Normal behavior:
    • If emptyfield is empty, display outputfield.
    • If emptyfield is not empty, display emptyfield.
  • Reverse behavior:
    • If emptyfield is empty, display nothing.
    • If emptyfield is not empty, display outputfield.

If I've misunderstood the use case or the meaning of the inverse/reverse request, let me know.
