Using if statements in your template
Designers also have the ability to use if statements in their template designs. By using an if statement you can do things like make the template look different if the visitor is on the front page.If statements can include ripe tags to use for the conditions but these ripe tags will need to be wrapped in $ signs instead of the curly braces.
Below are some examples of if statements which can be used in ripe.
{IF $FRONT_PAGE$}Hello front page{/IF}
This will output the words "hello front page" only if the visitor is on the front page.
{IF $FRONT_PAGE$}Hello front page{ELSE}Not front page{/IF}
This will output the words "hello front page" only if the visitor is on the front page and "Not front page" otherwise.
{IF $FRONT_PAGE$ == 1 AND $USR_ID$ > 0}Welcome to the website {USR}{/IF}
This if statement has two conditions and makes use of a ripe tag inside. If the visitor is logged in and on the frontpage then they will see the welcome message with their own name included.
{IF '$TITLE$' == 'My page title'}Example using string conditions{/IF}
This will output some text only if the page title is "My page title". Noticed the conditions are strings so they need to be wrapped inside quotation marks.
