Other Conditional Content questions

Sorry, I have been a user of your excellent plugins for several years and you were my first call now that I need to create some dynamic content. I'm sure that I'm making a simple error, BUT something is wrong.
I need to display some simple wording only if a specific couple of words are present in an Article. I believe that using the
Using the 'Conditional Content Button' I generated the following to display the text if the string 'European Union' is present:
Clearly the text string is present (line 2) BUT nothing displays.
What have I missed please?
I have just discovered that having set up the sample article page in question here:(this links to a 'Public page') that displays the additional scripting code. However, if you use either the LITE or PLUS login details provided to log in and then attempt to view the exact same page, that code is NOT displayed. Logout and then go to the page, the code is back!
I'm sorry, as I'm sure that it'll prove to be something that I have done (or not done) but I'd really appreciate some assistance in getting things working properly.
Thanks

You can probably not use the document buffer code from there, as the articles are not fully rendered yet. So the buffer is still empty.
You would have to check the article content instead. But that won't work, as the article content also contains the Conditional Content code. So you are telling it to check for 'European Union', which will always be there, as it is in the {show} tag itself.

Many thanks for superb products.
All the best

What might work is 'break' the search string.
Something like:

Something like:
return str_pos($article->introtext, 'European' . ' ' . 'Union') !== false;
