Out putting elements depending on page

[Wafiq]

Hi i am just trying to get to grips with processwire so i apologise for the newbie question.

Can i do this to prevent output from specified pages because its not working, i assume im doing it wrong.

if(!$page->id == 10){

   echo "blah blah blah";

}

[titanium]

if(!$page->id == 10){

   echo "blah blah blah";

}

Did you try this too?

if($page->id !== 10){
    echo "blah blah blah";
}

"Duh"

Thanks titanium that works.

[Wafiq]

oh yeah just one more thing is it possible to simply put .

!$page->page_name

page_name being the actual name of a page just like how i can point to the field name

Once pw gets to this code there is for sure a page name. To say differently a page requires a name actually to even exist. It's the only one required apart from id. So let us know what you want to do and somebody will tell.

basically i have an include that is in every page but a block in the include i don't want showing up in say 2 pages

if ($page->id !== 1001 || $page->id !== 1011){ 
echo"block"; 
} 

Now this is not working for both but will for one. why? is my php syntax wrong?

[Soma]

No the syntax is right, just the logic is wrong and will never be both "false" it's a double or false trap.

Just use PW way

if (!$page->is("id=1001|1003")){
    echo "block";
}
