Using PHP In Actinic v11

The text suggest correctly to use a "block" but the screen grab image shows a "block if"

[leehack]

A Block tunrs into a Block If, if it also has a condition added to it after the initial addition of the Block i have found, perhaps it is because of that.

[jont]

The instructions show the block if appearing before anything is added or changed- it is also describing just for PHP blocks and not conditions.

Not the end of the world.

[NormanRouxel]

If this is the Help / Understanding Layouts / Using PHP, the the first screenshot does show both a blockif and a block. However the next line of text tells you which to use: From the list that appears, select 'block' rather than 'block if'. This will insert 'block' tags into your design.

The latter part of that article PHP Within Conditions looks wrong. It should be:

substr(<actinic:variable name="ProductReference" encoding="perl" selectable="false" />,0,3) == 'cat'

Actinic Conditions are by default PHP blocks. Variables tend to be embedded as though they have quotes around them.
