I messed up. Should be:
Assuming labels are in A1:A30, values in B1:B30
=SUMIFS(B1:B30,A1:A30,"=<text>",B1:B30,">0")
replace <text> with the 'certain text string'
----- unless you are looking for a text string within the contents of
the cells with text. That would be more complicated. I'd go for a (if
necessary, hidden) column:
Assuming original labels in A1:A30, values in C1:C30
cell B1 formula: =LEN(IF(ISERR(FIND("<text to look for>",A1)),"",A1))
(copy this formulas through B30)
then
=SUMIFS(C1:C30,B1:B30,">0",C1:C30,">0")
