Hide Zendesk Help Center Components with Curlybars

Learn how to use Curlybars to hide specific components in Zendesk Help Center by targeting unique IDs with conditional statements.

How can I hide specific components in Zendesk Help Center using Curlybars?

You can hide specific components in Zendesk Help Center by using Curlybars, a templating language that allows for conditional statements. This enables you to dynamically control the rendering of your Help Center pages. By targeting the unique ID of a category, section, article, topic, or post, you can hide that item while displaying others. To find the ID, navigate to the page and check the URL for a number like /hc/en-us/categories/200420805-General, where 200420805 is the ID.

For example, to hide a category on the home page, you can use theisnthelper in your code. This helper checks if the value does not match, and if so, it renders the displayed code, effectively hiding the identified item. You can find more detailed examples and code snippets in theoriginal Zendesk article.
