I’m having a big problem with Freebie + GWcode Categories. I am totally stumped. I have “locations” set up as a breaking segment in Freebie. I then visit /locations/illinois. The template is the following code:
```
{exp:gwcode_categories  
    show="9" 
    style="linear"}

    test1-{cat_url_title}
    {if freebie_2 == "illinois"}
        test2
    {/if}
    {if freebie_2 == "{cat_url_title}"}
        test3
    {/if}

{/exp:gwcode_categories}
```
This outputs:

test1-illinois
test2

Why won’t it display test3?? It makes zero sense…? Clearly the {cat_url_title} is equal to “illinois” and so is {freebie_2}. Can anyone lend an idea?? Banging my head against a wall here.

Hi upshot,

Can you try the following:

{exp:gwcode_categories  
    show="9" 
    style="linear"}

    test1-{cat_url_title}
    {if "{freebie_2}" == "illinois"}
        test2
    {/if}
    {if "{freebie_2}" == "{cat_url_title}"}
        test3
    {/if}

{/exp:gwcode_categories}

If the above doesn’t work try using:

...
{if "{exp:freebie:any name='illinois'}" == "true"}<h2>test2</h2><p>{/if}<br />
{if "{exp:freebie:any name='{cat_url_title}'}" == "true"}</p><h2>test3</h2><p>{/if}<br />
...

Also, what version of EE are you running?

Cheers,

Mike
