What is Condition for Layer

You can set a dependency for a layer to show up only when another layer meets a condition.
I.e. Layer "B" and its personalization option can only appear if customer selects a specific option in layer "A".

How it works

Let's take a look at this example for better understand:
Layer A named "Dark Hand" sets " 1 clipart category" and allows to change between "hold-drink" hand or "v-hand".



Layer B named "Drink" sets "1 clipart category", allows to personalize between different drink types.



If you want the "Drink" option only shows up when customers choose the Hand layer as "Hold drink", not "V-hand", then you need to set condition for "Drink" option:
+ Click on "Drink" layer
+ On Layers option panel, scroll down and click on Conditional settings
+ In the "Show this layer and its options when:" option, select the layer option (" Dark Hand") which this layer ("Drink") depends on
+ Select the value "Hold drink" to show the "Drink" option



Also, if you need to show your layer Drink without customer choosing dependency layer when they visit your product page for the first time, you can show dependency layer at first-time loading page by enabling "Show this layer on first load".


See and check result on live store:





Condition also works for option "1 Group of Clipart Categories". For group of clipart categories, you can choose to depend on multiple sub-categories.

Use condition on multiple layers

There are cases when you want to add more conditions based on multiple layers. Please view the example below:



In this scenario, a specific Quote will appear when both the left and right pet options are set to Dog.

Please see the following steps:

Upload your Layer for the Dog Quote:



In this case, you should use AND condition:



You might need to use the AND condition when you want an element to appear only when all specified criteria are met. If any condition is not satisfied, the element will not be displayed.

Set the first condition for the Dog on the Left



(Now the Quote will show up if the Pet on the left side is set to Dog. But you will need to apply the same for the Dog on the right as well)

Set the next condition by clicking the add conditions button:



Continue to set the next conidtion as below:



You have now successfully configured the Dog Quote to display only when both pet selections are set to Dog
