Hello Steve,
Thank you for your comments. I have big plans for the modules (I use them on my own online social network - PokerDIY.com)
Yes, conditional statements would be a great enhancement. I am, however, porting over all templates to use the core Token Replacement methods (they are more efficient and allow formatting (e.g dates) and a lot more standardised flexibility. I think this would be the bets place to ask about this sort of functionality (it should be common to all modules in the core).
