   Hi there. I'd like to either show the content, or not, based on whether a certain string is found in the content itself. This is what i have, but it's not working:

   <?php
   	$thecontent = basename(the_content(10));
   	if(strpos($thecontent, '[flickr') > 0): ?>
   		<p>Show text 1</p>
           <?php else :?>
   		<p>Show text 2</p>
   <?php endif;?>

   First off, the content gets shown on the page because of the variable assignment. Then the conditional doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions?

   I don't know what the purpose of the '10' was in your sample, but the way to get the content is to get_the_content(). :)

   <?php
   	$thecontent = get_the_content('Read more ...'));
   	if(strpos($thecontent, '[flickr') > 0): ?>
   		<p>Show text 1</p>
           <?php else :?>
   		<p>Show text 2</p>
   <?php endif;?>
