{exp:channel:entries channel="schedule_action | schedule_sports | schedule_hd" }
//how do i detect channel here.I need to use a if condition.
{/exp:channel:entries}
Based on data is coming from which channel,I need to provide some condition.
How do i give a {if channel=="ch_1"}{/if}
You're almost there, you have to use the channel short name like this:
{if channel == 'my_channel_name'}
yes you can use EE {if} or {switchee} plugin both will work with u
but u must use {channel_short_name} variable {channel} will give u the full channel name not the short one.
I read in the EE User guide comments here http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/add-ons/channel/channel_entries.html#10512
that {channel_name} is not documented but it is a shorthand of {channel_short_name} , but I don't try it.
Regard's.
Use switchee.
{exp:channel:entries channel="schedule_action | schedule_sports | schedule_hd" }
{!-- Choose appropriate based on source channel --}
{exp:switchee variable="{channel_name}" parse="inward"}
{case value="schedule_action"}
...
{/case}
{case value="schedule_sports"}
...
{/case}
{case value="schedule_hd"}
...
{/case}
{/exp:switchee}
{/exp:channel:entries}
