There are two common approaches to achieve this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Using the <code>depend<\/code> Tag<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <code>depend<\/code> tag allows you to check whether a variable has a value before rendering content. You can include it in your email template like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\" data-enlighter-theme=\"\" data-enlighter-highlight=\"\" data-enlighter-linenumbers=\"\" data-enlighter-lineoffset=\"\" data-enlighter-title=\"\" data-enlighter-group=\"\">{{depend info.getNotAllowDiscount()}}\n    &lt;h2 style=\"border-bottom:none;\">{{trans 'Review Products'}}&lt;\/h2>\n{{\/depend}}\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The content inside the <code>{{depend}}...{{\/depend}}<\/code> block will only be rendered if the condition evaluates to true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Using a Custom Block<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another approach is to use a <strong>custom block<\/strong> in your email template. This is useful when you need more complex logic or want to include a separate PHTML template. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\" data-enlighter-theme=\"\" data-enlighter-highlight=\"\" data-enlighter-linenumbers=\"\" data-enlighter-lineoffset=\"\" data-enlighter-title=\"\" data-enlighter-group=\"\">{{block class='Magento\\Framework\\View\\Element\\Template' area='frontend' template='Vendor_Module::email\/info.phtml' order=$order}}\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Inside your custom PHTML template (<code>info.phtml<\/code>). You can write any PHP logic you need to conditionally display content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example location:<\/strong><br><code>vendor\/magento\/module-sales\/view\/frontend\/email\/shipment_new.html<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any questions, please comment below, and we will try to respond to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks for visiting the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/webkul.com\/\">Webkul<\/a>&nbsp;blog! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this guide, we will learn how to apply conditional logic (if statements) in Magento 2 email templates.
