Conditional Logic for Tokens

Inside of an email can you introduce conditional logic when inserting a Token?

For instance:

When the value of token is 1 then write "Male".

When the value of token is 2 then write "Female".

Is this possible?

Thanks

Out of the box, you can do this with dynamic content (segmentation).  You will need to build out the infrastructure for it, such as the segments/segmentation.  Then, you can segment the email accordingly.

If you want a more straight forward approach and are good with code, look into Velocity which can easily do this.

    There are many ways to approach that issue. Personally, I started learning Velocity scripting today just to overcome an if statement issue.

      Yep, I would totally recommend Velocity over Segmentations for this. Anytime you're managing what can be single words in a content block, you don't want to have to use full-fledged Dynamic Content™.
