Why is the value for ‘pessoas_com_quem_se_relaciona.data_do_baptismo’ not returned when inside an if statement?

After many attempts and just about to give up I found out how to do it! 😛

Just changed this:
[if pessoas_com_quem_se_relaciona.tipo_de_registo_de_nascimento=”Baptismo”]
Data: {@pessoas_com_quem_se_relaciona.data_do_baptismo}
[/if]

to this:
[if pessoas_com_quem_se_relaciona.tipo_de_registo_de_nascimento=”Baptismo”]
Data: {@data_do_baptismo}
[/if]

and it worked! (nevertheless if someone knows why this works I would love to hear about it)

The old and new version look the same to me, but following the examples on https://docs.pods.io/displaying-pods/template-tags/if-conditional-tag/, any of these formats should be valid for the if statement:
```
[if field="my_field_name" value="5"]
[if field="my_field_name" value="5" compare="="]
[if my_field_name="5"]
```
One critical item to be aware of is the difference between " — a logical/straight quotation mark, versus ” and other curly quotes and apostrophes, which are typographical marks not valid in computer languages.
