If you wish to hide/show sections of your document based on certain conditions then you can surround that text with conditional merge fields (IF, ELSEIF, ELSE)

For information on how to set these up you can see the below video or the text beneath the video.

Syntax

In order to create a conditional statement in your document template you will need to create a merge field using the following format:

...

The * denotes that we're doing something special while the IF starts the conditional statement

[[*IF

The standard merge fields from your merge field list should be included in braces (otherwise known as "curly brackets")

{FirstName|pt=Client|rn=*}

Any static values should be included in quotes and there should be an operator in front of that static value

...

Finally, you will need to include a conditional field stop

 [[*ENDIF*]] 

You can add any number of ELSEIF options for additional conditions and ELSE section as a catch-all if all prior IF/ELSEIF conditional are false
