Question

Ive given my wordpress user a custom field in the backend which is a radio selection with three values, 1,2,3.

I want to set up conditionals so that if they select 1 then image 1 appears, if they select 2 then image 2 appears and if they select 3 then image 3 appears.

I’m currently using the following displays all thvalues of the checked buttons – but I need to use do do something like if value = 1 then do this

<?php 
/** Get a custom field with multiple values and return as an array */
$checkboxes_1 = get_custom_field('cft_checkboxes_1');
if( $checkboxes_1 ) {
?>
<div id="block-1" class="content-box"> 
<h2>Custom Field (multiple)</h2> 
<div class="entry"> 
    <?php print_r($checkboxes_1); ?> 
</div>
</div> 
<?php } ?>

the custome fields are generated using the custom field template button, and the implementation of getting the results is down to kevin leary

I’ve put this in my functions.php to retreive the cutom fields from the database…

// Get Custom Field Template Values
function get_custom_field($field) {
global $post;
$custom_field_data = get_post_meta($post->ID, $field, false);
if($custom_field_data) {
    if( count($custom_field_data) > 1 ) {
        return $custom_field_data; 
    } else {
        return $custom_field_data[0];
    }
} else {
    return false;
}
}

thanks!

Ok sorted it thanks for a great hack kevin leary for an amazing plugin: custom_field_templates

<?php 
/** Get a custom field with multiple values and return as an array */
$checkboxes_1 = get_custom_field('mycustomfield');
if(($checkboxes_1 ) == 1) {
?>
// do something
<?php } else if(($checkboxes_1 ) == 2) {?>
// do something
<?php } else if(($checkboxes_1 ) == 3) { ?>
// do something
<?php } ?>
