    I’m not quite sure how to code “if/else” statements

    i want to make an “if” statement that states

    If (author has facebook/twitter/etc link filled out)

    then (this code)

    Else (Do Nothing)

    but i cant understand “has” in the coding

    Is it a form the user is submitting, for the “if” part?

    no, the “form” is under the user setting, like email or nickname boxes which i already have

    im trying to make a sidebar widget that displays links to the users facebook or whatever. which i have, but the problem is that it is displaying a facebook link even though they havent filled out the info

    So you want to check if the form has been submitted?

    $facebook = get_the_author_meta( ‘facebook’ );
