I wanted to hide the awards div when the_field does not have any content any idea on how to make this happen? Much appreciated.

Answer 1

With css you can hide it with :empty property

like

.someClass:empty {
    display:none;
}

Answer 2

We can do it like this -

if ($(".award-content").html() == "") {
    $('.awards').hide();
}

Answer 3

You can verify with PHP if has content and ignore div. With CSS you can use :empty selector http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/sel_empty.asp

.award-content:empty {
    display: none;
}

Or change you PHP code:

<div class="full-width awards">
    <h2><span>Awards</span></h2>
    <div id="accordion" class="accordion awards-list">

    <?php if (!empty(get_field( 'awards_&_festivals' ) )) : ?>

    <h3 class="award-title" ><span class="down-icon">Awards &amp; Festivals</span></h3>
    <div class="award-content" >
        <?php the_field( 'awards_&_festivals' ); ?>
    </div>

    <?php endif; ?>

</div>
