EE 2.4.0

My channel entry no_results conditional is not returning any content. In fact, I’ve never been able to get this conditional to work. Ever. Not sure why.

Here is my channel tag code:

{exp:channel:entries
   disable="categories|category_fields|pagination"
   channel="ch_class_tracker"
   status="open"
   show_future_entries="no"
   show_expired="no"
   author_id="CURRENT_USER"
   require_entry="yes"
   orderby="date"
   sort="asc"
}
   {if no_results}no results content{/if}

   content

{/exp:channel:entries}

An entry ID is not being passed in the URL on this page. I am pulling up entries based upon the author_id=“CURRENT_USER” param.

If the author has not created an entry yet, I want the no results content to appear.

Hello Sam,

I am sorry to hear you are running into this problem.

Can you try a very basic block of code and build from there? In it’s own template just use the following.

{exp:channel:entries}
{if no_results}no results content{/if}
   content
{/exp:channel:entries}

If you have to, use a new channel that has no content, or create conditions so that there is no content.

Does the conditional still fail?

Thank you,

Hi Shane:

I did as requested and I did get the proper “no results content” as output.

I started add to the template to find what was the first problem and it broke the moment I wrapped everything in a Switchee add-on tag.

Going to go hunting around the support forum for any clues.

Yeah, this is a known issue; and not unique to Switchee, either. Switchee has a unique no_results tag that solves the problem:

Hey Sam,

So are you good now? Where are things.

Cheers,
