Syntax

<txp:hide>

The hide tag is a conditional tag and always used as an opening and closing pair, like this…

<txp:hide>
    …conditional statement…
</txp:hide>

The hide tag is used to suppress or postpone the interpretation of all enclosed contents. Use it for comments, temporary concealment of article text parts or non-destructive form changes.

Attributes

Tag will accept the following attributes (case-sensitive) as well as the global attributes :

process="integer" v4.7.0+

Whether and when to process the enclosed contents. If unset, no tag processing nor output will be done. If set without a value, the contents will be processes but not output. If set to an empty value ("" or "0"), the contents will be output as is without processing. Finally, a positive value "n" means process and output on the nth pass.

Default: unset.

Examples

Example 1: Insert a useful note in a template and define a variable

<txp:hide process>
    This is a work-around for a bug in Internet Explorer, again
    <txp:variable name="ie_workaround" value='<txp:output_form form="ie_workaround" />' />
</txp:hide>

Other tags used: output_form, variable.

Example 2: Comment out part of a form for testing

If you want to try something out to see how it affects the layout without actually deleting the content, wrap it in hide tags:

<div class="entry-content">
    <txp:body />
</div>
<txp:hide>
    <address class="vcard author">
        <span class="fn">
            <txp:author />
        </span>
    </address>
    <txp:comments_invite wraptag="p" />
</txp:hide>

Renders the body text inside the <div class="entry-content"> but skips the <address> and <txp:comments_invite /> tags.

Other tags used: author, body, comments_invite, output_form, variable.
