In configuration I choosed: show empty fields = NO

But if I add "[value] €" in the profile layout view (because I would like to add the € automatically to the value) empty fields (without a value) are shown

In my view this is false. "empty" should be only [value] and not the field with the layout.

Or can I add a code in the layout field, that this input is only shown if the value is not empty?

Can you please check this?

Hiding empty fields only applies if the field returns absolutely nothing. Adding to the layout will result in it outputting something. You can use IF substitutions to determine if you need to add to the layout or not. Example as follows.

[cb:if FIELD_NAME!=""][value] €[/cb:if]

Be sure to replace FIELD_NAME with the actual name of your field. If it can't accept empty and its empty value is something like 0 then you need to account for that in your substitution like the following.

[cb:if FIELD_NAME!="" and FIELD_NAME!="0"][value] €[/cb:if]
