have a field(let’s call it foo) with the Grid Fieldtype.

I have conditional to check if foo is greater than 0 or not

Now here is the problem. It seems to me that when I only have 1 row in the foo, {foo:total_rows} return nothing.

I tried adding another row. This time {foo:total_rows} returns 2. It is the same thing with 3, 4, etc. Basically anything greater than 1.

This shouldn’t be the case. If there is only 1 row, it should return 1.

I would to point out that the foo field is in a Channel with multiple Grid fieldtypes. It also has a relationship fieldtype for one of its columns.

I have another Grid field in that channel but without a realationship fieldtype for one of its columns. It is working correctly.

Any idea why this is happening?

UPDATE:

Tried out this code

<h3>field_total_rows {foo:field_total_rows}</h3>
<h3>total_rows {foo:total_rows}</h3>

<p>{foo}<br />
    </p><h3>loop field_total_rows {foo:field_total_rows}</h3>
<p>    </p><h3>loop total_rows {foo:total_rows}</h3>
<p>{/foo}

Output when the field contains only 1 row

field_total_rows
total_rows
loop field_total_rows 1
loop total_rows 1

Output when the field contains 2 rows

field_total_rows
total_rows 2
loop field_total_rows 2
loop total_rows 2
loop field_total_rows 2
loop total_rows 2

- Does this mean that the total_rows and field_total_rows can only be accessed inside the loop?
- Why does the total rows variable only appear if it is greater than 1?
