Tell me the conditional settings for the data of the field with the date.

I want to output the html field if the date field is empty. Setting the value in the Conditional settings to "Empty" does not work.

Date fields are never truly empty. They'll have a value of 0000-00-00 if nothing is selected. Will improve the checks in CB Conditional to take this into account when checking for empty condition. For now you should be able to use a condition like the following.

Is Empty:
Field: YOUR_DATE_FIELD
Operator: Equal To
Value: 0000-00-00

Is Not Empty:
Field: YOUR_DATE_FIELD
Operator: Not Equal To
Value: 0000-00-00

If it's a datetime field be sure to use 0000-00-00 00:00:00.
