Description
I am trying to create a custom template for a CCK form that includes conditional fields. When I do the following in my form template:
print drupal_render($form['controlling_field']);
print drupal_render($form['controlled_field']);The fields are both rendered just like normal CCK fields--the controlling_field doesn't actually control the visibility of the controlled_field. Is there any way to make this work? THanks for any help.

I am having the same issue. I played around with the weights of the modules, but that didn't help. I can get the #conditional-fields info to show in the $form array, but the form is always rendered with all fields visible when using hook_theme() with theme_[contenttype]_node_form()

You will need to add some logic into your output, an if statement should do.
As a precaution, make sure you save your template to disk before experimenting. If you WSOD your template, you'll have to delete it and start over :)
Hope this helps,

Hi Dinis,
Could you please share an example of adding logic to the rendering of a field on a custom form.
Simply drupal_rendering form fields shows the conditional fields elements in devel but doesn't seem to properly show/hide the field depending on the control field.
Thank you
