More information

The examples spread the content and the commands on multiple lines to make it easier to read. This is not required. A @IF can be placed in the middle of a paragraph if you need it.

Two other actions interact with @IF and @ENDIF: @ELSE and @ELSEIF.

Unlike the IF function, this @IF action only receives a condition. The content that follows the action (until a @ELSE, @ELSEIF or @ENDIF) is used as if_true value. If there is a @ELSE or @ELSEIF action, the content that follows it is used as if_false value.

You can nest @IF…@ENDIF within another @IF…@ENDIF. So if the outer @IF’s condition hides the content, the inner @IF will be ignored.

A more in-depth explanation for using @IF is available in the explanations: Clarifying @IF.
