Contains()

britesc · 08-26-2019, 08:29 AM

Hi,
I am trying to make a Yes / No column that will show me if the {formats} contains a Zip File.

I created a column "Column Built from Other Columns, behaves like Tags" and entered a template of contains {{formats},"Zip", "Yes", "No" } but you guessed it, it´s wrong... TEMPLATE ERROR.

As this is my first real attempt at a custom column and the docs don't really have examples that I can find, could anyone please advise me what I need to do?

Thanks and kind regards,
jB

PS I am almost blind so often miss obvious answers in books etc.

Try

Code:

{formats:contains(Zip,Yes,No)}
