Hi, I'm trying to create a condition where it checks if the text string variable is empty, like this:

<IF {MYCUSTOMVAR} is emptystring>
<img src="templates/default/images/image1.png"
<OTHERWISE>
<img src="templates/default/images/{MYCUSTOMVAR}.png"
</IF>

So, if there is nothing in the custom text field (empty text string) it displays image1.png. Otherwise - it displays file specified in the custom text field.

What is the proper syntax for this like: <IF {MYCUSTOMVAR} is emptystring> (what to put insead of emptystring)?

Thanks!

I understand that you can use:

<IF {MYCUSTOMVAR}>
<img src="templates/default/images/{MYCUSTOMVAR}.png"
<OTHERWISE>
<img src="templates/default/images/image1.png"
</IF>
