UCM All Field Values Output was created by iamrobert

In FLEXIcontent Universal Content Module (UCM) - we have been outputting all the values to make a select list:

Code:

              <option value="">Choose Region</option>
              <?php

              $fieldname = 'region'; //REGIONS
              if ( !isset( $item->fields[ $fieldname ]->parameters ) ) {
                FlexicontentFields::loadFieldConfig( $item->_row->fields[ $fieldname ], $item );
              }

              $extra_props = array(); 
              $elements = FlexicontentFields::indexedField_getElements( $item->_row->fields[ $fieldname ], $item, $extra_props );

              if ( !empty( $elements ) )
                foreach ( $elements as $el ) {

                  if ( @unserialize( $el ) !== false || $el === 'b:0;' )$el = unserialize( $el );

                  echo '<option value="' . $el->value . '">' . $el->text . '</option>';

                  // var_dump($el);
                  $GLOBALS[ 'pi_region_filter_list' ][ $el->value ] = $el->text;

                }

              ?>

DEMO:

This has worked well for many years.

Now, we are trying to make a store locator based on region and suburb. So, we have entered all the possible regions and suburbs in Taiwan, incase the client chooses to expand. However, many of the regions don't currently have a store at present - so the result comes up blank a lot of the time.

Is there a way to rewrite the PHP to check if the value exists before outputting it?

Hello

Displaying filtering options that exist is done in category view
you are trying to replicate something similar in Universal Content Module ?

I mean you are creating a dynamic filter of the module's items ?

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
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?

Thanks for the reply.

Yes - it's dynamic. Ideally - it should only show if there is a value present, and in the field category order. For instance option 3 doesn't show because its not present.

We did it here for the category for the categories on the left:
www.tokenproducts.com/bottom-brackets/press-fit

Code:

$el_1_id = $filter1_num;
if(isset($items[$i]->fieldvalues[$el_1_id])){
$el_1_vals = $items[$i]->fieldvalues[$el_1_id]; 
} 
  
if (!empty($el_1_vals)) foreach ($el_1_vals as $v1) {
    if ( @unserialize($v1)!== false || $v1=== 'b:0;' ) $v1 = unserialize($v1);
    echo ' one'.$v1;
}

The links on the left we hid via js:

Code:

    $("#bws-techfilter input:not(.all), #panel1a input:not(.all), #panel2a input:not(.all), #panel3a input:not(.all), #panel4a input:not(.all), #panel5a input:not(.all), #panelcollection input:not(.all)").each(function () {
      //  console.log($(this).val());
      if ($($(this).val()).length === 0) {
        $(this).css("display", "none");
        var name = $(this).val().replace(".", "");
        $('label[for="' + name + '"]').css("display", "none");
      }
    });

But it shows dynamically in the category items on the right. Does that make sense?
