Hi,

I'm very new to Umbraco - with about 4 hrs experience, so sorry for what might be a 'silly question'

So in my DocType I have added a True/False field.

In my template I am then trying to show/hide content based on whether that value is True or False.

I have tried a number of, what I hoped might be solutions, but they either don't appear to do anything or cause a runtime error.

If I hardcode in

@if ("True" == "True")
{
 <div>Show me</div>
}

That seems to work.

But if I replace the first value with the property? I am trying to check, not so good e.g..

@if ("@Umbraco.Field("showBanner1")") == "True")

{
 <div>Show Me</div>
}

or

@if (Model.Content.GetPropertyValue("showBanner1") == "True")

{
 <div>Show me</div>
}

I've even tried

@{var show = @Umbraco.Field("showBanner1");}
@{var show2 = @Umbraco.Field("showBanner1");}

@if ("@show" == "@show2")

{
 <div>Show Me</div>
}

So with the last one, even when I am checking the value against itself it doesn't appear to work, so I know I'm doing something wrong.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks.
