Hiding before and after content for empty fields?

[Cyberwolfer]

I came across an old pods v1 manual and tags for hiding before_text and after_text in magic tags…

{@column_name[,display_helper][,before_text][,after_text]}

(http://www.scribd.com/doc/14804608/Wordpress-Pods-User-Guide)

This is exactly what I need as the users of my wordpress do not always fill out all fields and I don’t want to show a long empty list, however when I try it inside a pods shortcode, it doesn’t seem to be working…

[pods]{@property_taxes,,

Property taxes:,

}[/pods]

It is still showing the “Property taxes:” on the page even though the field for this one is empty.

Do you know what I am doing wrong? Or is this shortcode/magic tag code depreciated in pods 2.x, in that case do you know any easy way around it?
