Hi @4nkown,
Your Django template syntax has multiple issues that could prevent it from rendering correctly. Here are the key problems and suggestions for fixing them:
Problems in Your Code:
-
Incorrect Use of {% elif %}
Without an Opening {% if %}
Block
{% elif %}
cannot be the first statement; it must follow {% if %}
.
-
Invalid {% catalog %}
Block Usage
{% catalog %}
and {% endcatalog %}
are not standard Django template tags. - If they are custom template tags, ensure they are correctly defined in your template library.
-
Incorrect has_category
Syntax
has_category catalog_item "watch" as in_category
should be wrapped inside an {% if %}
statement.
-
Logical Operators Misplacement
- The
or
operator should be explicitly used between conditions, not within a variable assignment. - The multiple
as in_category
assignments are likely incorrect.
Here's a simplified and corrected version:
{% catalog item.ProductID unpublished="cancel" %} {% if "Baume & Mercier" in item.ProductCategories %} {% with has_category catalog_item "watch" as watch %} {% with has_category catalog_item "Special Savings" as special %} {% with has_category catalog_item "Popular" as popular %} {% if watch or special or popular %} <!-- Content here --> {% endif %} {% endwith %} {% endwith %} {% endwith %} {% endif %} {% endcatalog %}
Fixes & Improvements:
✅ Replaced {% elif %}
with {% if %}
for proper conditional logic.
✅ Used {% with %}
to store has_category
results cleanly.
✅ Ensured correct or
logic inside {% if %}
.
Next Steps:
- Verify that
{% catalog %}
is a valid custom tag. - Ensure
has_category
correctly returns True
or False
. - Use
{% debug %}
to check variable values in the template.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards.
