Hide Empty Fields in my Activities Page

For anyone who is interested, support gave me this code instead and it works great.

var fieldValue = $('.request-details dd');  

$.each(fieldValue, function(i, val){ 
var dd_text = $(val).text(); 

if (dd_text=="-")  {  $(val).prev().hide();  $(val).hide(); 
} 
});

Thanks for sharing the code, Michelle! Glad you got the help you needed.

I try to apply this code of Michelle sharing, but doesn't work for me.

This code apply in JS of Help Center, right ?

This was working flawless in my Zendesk till some time ago.

Looks like something changed recently in the HC and it's no longer working.

I'd really like to be able to use this in our instance of zendesk. Where do I implement the code?

Hi Clarinda!

You'd put that in the JS section of your Help Center theme. Just proceed with caution if you're not familiar with coding; if your Help Center breaks from any custom code you add, Support might not able to help you fix it!

Thanks, Jessie! It's not working for me. Should I open a ticket for someone in support to help me with the code by looking at my instance?

Hey Clarinda!

Our Support team isn't able to help with those types of customizations, I'm afraid. I'll check to see if one of our Help Center gurus here in the Community can give you some guidance!

@Michelle - What template are you using? I'm wondering if this code only works with certain templates.

@Jessie - Any word from your HC gurus?

@Clarinda - I've sent up the bat signal for our 'civilian' Moderators, several of whom are really great with custom coding in HC. They jump in as they're able.

Looking a little more closely at the original post, it looks like it's about a year and a half old. I'm wondering if some of the changes we've made to Help Center since then have made it so this JS is basically obsolete...

I'll see what else I can dig up.

Hi Everyone!

This is actually achievable with Curlybars now! In the Request Page template, where the field names and values are rendered, we want to add this code to only render fields without blank values:

{{#isnt value '—'}}
 <dt>{{title}}</dt>
 <dd>
  {{value}}
 </dd>
{{/isnt}}

Here is where I placed the code in my Help Center using the Copenhagen theme - the other themes should have an entry very similar which iterates through the 'custom_fields':

I hope this is helpful!

Thank you so, so much, Jake! This code worked like a charm. Our users will be so happy. :)

Thanks again.

I love it when a plan comes together. :D

thanks Jake!
