Expected behavior

What do you think should happen?

I should be able to show and hide elements when table has items via the UI.
In PHP:

Actual behavior

What actually happens?

I can not find “Has items” in the user interface. If I use .hasItems() in code view
it works.
In node:

  • Test your steps on a clean page to see if you still have an issue
  1. Try to hide a row when DB has no rows.
#2

Is this a single record result query?

#3

Hi Dave,
Nope, multi result.
I just checked another project that’s built on PHP and if PHP the UI shows the Has Items option. But in node it does not.

#4

What is the type of the expression shown? The icon on the left of text…
I have seen often that instead of array, it shows it as text, hence the missing formatter.

#5

Hi,
Yes, its set to text. If I change it to array I get the option Has Items in the UI. But then its not working. The expression gets removed completely.

#6

@JoakimAsk,

Just to be clear, this is a NodeJS project and not a PHP project, correct?

If it is NodeJS, then the wording has changed from hasitems to hasvalue, NodeJS show/hide dynamic attribute As @Dave pointed out with his question, the result needs to be multi-result and not single-result, which it appears from your answer it is.

#7

Yes, its Node.js.
And the query is not single query.
I got it working by adding .hasItems() manually but not possible in UI.
