  • 0

I’m trying to output different text depending on the custom post type and I’m getting a syntax error which I believe is due to multiple if-statements. The problem is that I have a very limited knowledge of PHP. Any ideas?

<?php

if ( 'lettering' == get_post_type() ) {

    <?php if( function_exists( 'attachments_get_attachments' ) ) { 
            $attachments = attachments_get_attachments();
            $total_attachments = count( $attachments );
            if( $total_attachments ) : ?>
            <ul id="process"><span>Process:</span>
            </ul>
            <br>
                <?php endif; ?> <?php } ?>

} elseif ( 'type' == get_post_type() ) {

    <?php if( function_exists( 'attachments_get_attachments' ) ) { 
            $attachments = attachments_get_attachments();
            $total_attachments = count( $attachments );
            if( $total_attachments ) : ?>
            <ul id="process"><span>Additional Shots</span>
            </ul>
            <br>
                <?php endif; ?> <?php } ?>
}

?>

    remove opening php tags like:
    change:

    <?php if ( 'lettering' == get_post_type() ) {

    this one --> <?php if( function_exists( 'attachments_get_attachments' ) ) {

    to

    <?php if ( 'lettering' == get_post_type() ) {

    if( function_exists( 'attachments_get_attachments' ) ) { 
      .......

    and similarly in elseif

    Added:

    <?php
if ( 'lettering' == get_post_type() ) {
    if( function_exists( 'attachments_get_attachments' ) ) { 
        $attachments = attachments_get_attachments();
        $total_attachments = count( $attachments );
        if( $total_attachments ): 
?>
                <ul id="process"><span>Process:</span>
                </ul>
                <br>
<?php 
        endif; 
    }
} else if ( 'type' == get_post_type() ) {
    if( function_exists( 'attachments_get_attachments' ) ) { 
        $attachments = attachments_get_attachments();
        $total_attachments = count( $attachments );
        if( $total_attachments ): 
?>
                <ul id="process"><span>Additional Shots</span>
                </ul>
                <br>
<?php 
        endif;
    }
}
?>
