Squeditor includes a Conditional Display system that allows you to dynamically show or hide certain controls based on the values of other controls. This is extremely useful for keeping Squeditor sidebar clean when an option doesn’t apply (e.g., hiding font size settings when a custom layout is disabled).

​
Basic Usage

The show_if property inside any control definition determines its visibility.

​
Equality

Display a control if another control’s id matches a specific value. 
"show_if": "{{section_container}} === 'custom'"

​
Inequality

Display a control if another control does NOT equal a specific value. 
"show_if": "{{section_bg}} !== 'video'"

​
Multiple Values

Display a control if another control’s value matches one of the items in a set. 
"show_if": "{{button_style}} in { 'primary', 'secondary' }"

​
Logical Grouping

You can combine multiple conditions using AND (implicit in arrays) or OR (explicit object configuration).

​
AND Logic (Default)

All conditions must be true for the control to display. Pass an array of condition strings. 
"show_if": [
    "{{section_container}} === 'custom'",
    "{{show_advanced}} === true"
]

​
OR Logic

At least one condition must be true. Pass a configuration object with relation: 'OR'. 
"show_if": {
    "relation": "OR",
    "conditions": [
        "{{status}} === 'active'",
        "{{role}} === 'admin'"
    ]
}
