Is it possible to make one 'section show' check if equal on multiple values? (I'd like to do something like this - look under). Or do I have to write a section show for each and every value?

{section show=$node.node_id|eq(1124|1156|1157|1152|etc)}
<h1>Members</h1>
{/section}

See:

http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/development/libraries/ez_template/operators/logical_handling

You could write:

{let x=$node.node_id}

{section show=or( $x|eq(1124), $x|eq(1156), $x|eq(1157) )}
<h1>Members</h1>
{/section}

{/let}

I used a {let} to simplify the code. Take a look at the documentation for other examples.

Just remembed a better way :)

{switch match=$node.node_id}
{case in=array(1124,1156,1157,1152)}
<h1>Members</h1>
{/case}
{/switch}

Might be better depending on what you want to do but the code is far neater.

You can also use the contains operator to see if a value exists in an array.

{section show=array(1124,1156,1157)|contains($x)}
<h1>Members</h1>
{/section}
