Still not possible to check if Grid field is empty?
How Do I?

Am I missing something or is it still not possible to check a Grid field for empty / not empty (or number of rows) without actually looping through it?
This is a huge problem if you need to do something like this:
{if field1 OR field2 OR field3}
...
{/if}

I’ve checked for grid entries like this
{grid_field row_id="1"}
{if "{grid_field:grid_field_1_name}" != ""}
show grid content with usual grid code
{/if}
{/grid_field}not ideal but at least it lets you check for content in the first row

How would you do my example above? Field1, field2, field3 all being separate grid fields.

If you’re testing for empty then if row 1 is empty then by default, all other rows are empty… so you only need to query the first row… Just substitute ‘grid_field’ in the example for your grid’s name and ‘grid_field_1_name’ for the name of your first column that you’re testing against
