Need a little help with helpers - access to comments to paid members and free

Developer help

We want to restrict commenting to paid members only but also allow commenting to free members on articles that have the tag #freetocomment

Will the following work, I haven’t tried it on the website because it’s live (Ghost Pro) and currently don’t have access to a local dev version.

{{#if @member.paid}}

Display Comments

{{/if}}

{{#if @member}}

{{#has tag="#freetocomment"}}
 Display comments if the article has the free tag 
{{/has}}

{{/if}}

From what I understand, the above is saying, if a member has a paid membership then display comments. Then if the member has a free membership and the article has the #freetocomment tag display comments.

Just don’t want two comment forms being displayed so looking for a way to use on a single condition rather than having two - but no sure if that matters in this case.

OK got there in the end… Quite a few conditions but if anyone can come up with a shorter, cleaner solution please do let me know.

{{#if @member.paid}}
