 * Hi Eliot,
 * If it is at all possible, would you be able to include or point out where it 
   already exists to do something as shown below.
 *     ```
       [if condition]
          [if condition]
          [/if]
          [if condition]
          [/if]
          <other code>
       [/if]
       ```
   
 * This would require the [/if] tags to know which [if] tag they are ending while
   keeping the others still going.
 * Thanks,
    Garrett

 * In the latest update, I implemented a way to have nested conditions. WordPress
   doesn’t support nesting shortcodes with the same name, so I got around it with
   the following syntax:
 *     ```
       [if condition]
          [-if condition]
          [-else]
          [/-if]
       [else]
       ..
       [/if]
       ```

 * Thanks for adding it Eliot!
