Question about Layout Editor and what it pulls

Hello!

I just wanted to check in here.

Thank you!

Hey @emgb_520

There is no way to do this currently, but dynamic conditions sounds like a great feature to add.

That being said, if you’re prepared to do some coding I can outline the logic:

1. You would need to use one of our filters to modify the output of the custom field:
custom-layouts/element/render_output
https://customlayouts.com/documentation/action-filter-reference/

2. And then check if if the custom field is empty – if its empty you can use the WP functions to pull the data from the second custom field:
https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/functions/get_post_meta/

If using ACF it would probably be get_field:
https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/get_field/

And then you would return the new output.

I will stick this is on the feature requests list as it sounds like a nice feature to have!

Thanks

Thank you for this! It is appreciated.
