Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Because the title for a block can be which displays as nothing, you can have a block with no title or content that doesn't get the filler text which can be frustrating to edit. The patch below just alters the if statement to include if($block['title'] == '') as well as empty.

alphageekboy commentedThe original patch worked great for displaying the block when logged in with appropriate rights. However, this prevented the box from completely hiding if it was empty when you didn't have edit rights for the box. Thus, the box would still render with empty content. Ideally, we want to the box to not render when you do not have edit rights.
The patch attached adds a return if the box is empty and you do not have box edit rights. This prevents the box from being rendered if "Hide if empty" is checked and you do not have box edit rights.
