    Hello all

    I’m developing a simple plugin to show some social icons based on options. I have used if statements successfully before now with no issue. The following code is causing me problems:

    <?php if ( get_option('sd_facebook_visible') ) {
					echo '<li><a href="' . get_option('sd_facebook') .  $linkcontent['facebook'] . '</a></li>';
				} ?>

    I have done var_dump(get_option('sd_facebook_visible')); which returns the following.

    string(1) "1"

    It is a checkbox on my options page. No matter what state the checkbox is it just wont show any ideas?

    Many Thanks

    For once, the link attribute href is not closed it has to be like
    <a href="...">link text</a> You might also check the value a bit more clearer. Maybe this will do:

    $sd_facebook_visible = get_option( 'sd_facebook_visible' );

if( $sd_facebook_visible === '1' || strtolower( $sd_facebook_visible ) === 'on' || (int) $sd_facebook_visible === 1 ) {

  echo '<li><a href="' . get_option('sd_facebook') . '">' . $linkcontent['facebook'] . '</a></li>';

}
