Hi Rob, I’ve got a safecracker form inside an if_segment pair, yet when the if_segment if false I’m getting a The specified channel is invalid error. Looks like exp:safecracker is ignoring the if_segment.

What do you reckon?

{if segment_5 != "" AND segment_6 == ""}
{exp:safecracker channel="{segment_3}” return=”/forum/new-forum-topic/success/{segment_3}” safecracker_head=“no”}

This is a problem with EE’s advanced conditionals. The tagdata within your conditional gets parsed, no matter what. Then, at the end, that parsed tagdata will get removed depending on the results of the conditional. Two potential solutions: a) use PHP on input and build your conditionals that way

<?php if ($this->EE->uri->segment(5) && ! $this->EE->uri->segment(6)) : ?>
{exp:safecracker channel="{segment_3}" return="/forum/new-forum-topic/success/{segment_3}" safecracker_head="no"}
<?php else : ?>
blah blah
<?php endif; ?> 

Or, b) use embeds

{if segment_5 != â??â? AND segment_6 == â??â?}
{embed="safecracker/safecracker" channel="{segment_3}"}
