I have two weblogs. Albums and Songs.

I have a relationship field in the Songs weblog that associates songs with albums.

I have a template “playlist” in template group “music”.

When linking to this template, I pass the url_title of the album as the third segment /music/playlist/album-name

I would then like to compare this segment, with the url_title from the related entries of each song to determine whether or not to show them.

I’m hoping I haven’t architected this entire setup incorrectly.

Any advice on how I can practically accomplish the equivalent of:

{if segment_3=={related_entries id="song_album"}{url_title}{/related_entries}}

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Incidentally, just printing out the related_entries tag works fine, I’m presuming the if statement just doesn’t like a tag pair nested in there… tried assigning the value to a variable and comparing that without luck as well.

I’m surprised this works… I really thought I might have hit a dead end here, but I’ve got it working with the following:

{related_entries id="song_album"}
    {if segment_3==url_title}
{/related_entries}

Yes that should work. So, you’re all set for now? Just making sure.
