Filter Channel Entry content parts with status parameter?

Question

I need a way to show channel:entry content filtered by statuses open vs custom on a single entry page.

Like so: - Show basic fields and their content if status is “open” - Show ALL fields when status is “custom”.

I tried to use conditional inside of channel:entry loop but that didnt get me anywhere but errors. So seems that using if status=“custom” is not available for to use (bummer)...

How I can hide/show content on entry page depending on entry status?

Is the only way to make 2 channel:entry looping pairs with other having status set to “open” and putting fields I want to show inside, and then double it and changing status to “custom” and putting all fields inside of that looping pair?

Am I missing something that can be used to filter content fields with status parameter using only one channel:entry looping pair?

Thanks in advance.

You should be able to just use the {exp:channel:entries} tag pair, define both statuses in the status="" parameter, and then use a conditional to show status-specific content.

{exp:channel:entries status="open|custom" ... }

    Shared fields

    {if status == 'open'}
        Fields for status Open
    {/if}

    {if status == 'custom'}
        Fields for status Custom
    {/if}

{/exp:channel:entries}
