Anki Small Questions Thread - (NO Technical / Troubleshooting Posts)

Does anyone know if there's a way to run a simple conditional test on the contents of a field? I want something like

If(tags field has a 'leech' tag in it) {display the word 'leech' on front of card}
else {display nothing}


I checked the manual, but it only talks about conditional display depending on whether or not a field is EMPTY. I don't tend to use many tags, so that sort of works for some decks.. but I'm hoping for something more general.

The way anki deals with leeches by default doesn't do much for me. Suspending the card really isn't a solution at all, and I don't use the whole 'filtered decks' thing. I tried displaying the tags on front with one deck that has no other tags but 'leech' or 'marked' on it. It seemed to help a bit. But like I say, I am looking for a general solution because lots of my decks have a bunch of random tags and it would clutter up the front if I did the same thing with them.
