If/Else Custom Field (Adding style)

    Hi,

    I want to display the content of a custom field on a single page only when the custom field was actually filled out. I know how to pull a custom field’s value into the template and add CSS style to it.

    However, using the if/else statement the value including css style should only show up “if” the custom field was filled out. Right now the value shows up after the div containers but I kind of struggle to make it show up in the right place.

    Its probably pretty basic php stuff but I still can’t make it work!

    So here is my latest attempt:

    <?php
$skills_values = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'skills', true);
if ($skills_values){
echo '<div class="listing-info-left">
<h2>Required Skills</h2>
<div class="inner-listing">
</div>
</div>' .$skills_values;
}
else {

echo ' ';
}
?>

    I would appreciate some help with that!

    Many thanks,
    do77

    this might work:

    <?php
$skills_values = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'skills', true);
if ($skills_values){
echo '<div class="listing-info-left">
<h2>Required Skills</h2>
<div class="inner-listing">'
.$skills_values
.'</div>
</div>';
}
else {

echo ' ';
}
?>
