WP Advanced Custom Fields - True/False field if/else statement

Question

I'm using an ACF Radio Button field to toggle the display of code based on ticking "yes" or "no". Like this:

<?php if (get_field('toggle') == 'no'): ?>

    some stuff here

<?php elseif(get_field('toggle') == 'yes'): ?>

    some other stuff here

<?php endif; ?>

But what I'd really like is to use the True/False field and have it display some default code when unchecked, and different code when checked. I'm just not sure how to adapt the code above to reflect that use of the True/False field. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Since there are only two values you only need to check for the "checked" state, which is a value of "yes" or whatever you have configured it to be.

<?php if ( 'yes' == get_field('toggle') ): ?>
    The box is checked (set to "yes")
<?php else: ?>
    The box is NOT checked (either false or "no")
<?php endif; ?>

Ah ha! Yes, of course. Makes perfect sense. Thanks so much! And in this case we can actually just make the first line: – dadra Aug 20 '14 at 12:32
You can only do that if you only care that it is set at all - `"false" == true` and `"no" == true` for example. – doublesharp Aug 20 '14 at 17:44
Roger that. Thanks again! – dadra Aug 20 '14 at 20:58
