I’ve tried multiple times over the years to remove an element via a toggle switch but I get unexpected results.

What is the proper way to have an entire element removed inside of a block when the toggle on the element is set to true?

-Thanks!

I have figured out how to show an element with the following settings, but the toggle breaks if I try to have the element shown by default and hidden when toggled.

I also tried the new Block Condition attribute but it would not pick up the “hide\_address” attribute ID in the dropdown menu and when I add it manually it does nothing.
