Thank you, it spits out:
(:if exists Profile-Data.{Members/Hosts$:201504} :) [...] (:else:) [...] (:if:)
So the PTV does not appear to have been processed yet -- the markup expression
has, though. And this goes for ALL the PTVs throughout the entire IF
condition, including the ones I've redacted with [...]
However this violates documentation:
Use page text variables in conditional markup
<http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/ConditionalMarkup>
Page text variables will be assigned/evaluated before any conditional markup is
evaluated. This effectively means that you cannot declare a PTV within an
if...else condition; and also that a PTV will have a value even if it is set
within a (:if false:)....(:if:) condition.

I upgraded to the latest version and it still doesn't work. I turned off each
recipe and commented out sections of code that even vaguely might affect
conditional processing or PTV evaluation one at a time (it's a live site), and
no change. I did not comment out authentication, captcha or PmForm, since
these would break the site in a very bad way and are released by PM & Petko.
Just for giggles, to take the complexity out of the if-conditional, I even
tried:
TempVar:Profile-Data.{Members/Hosts$:{(ftime "%Y%m")}}
(:if exists {$:TempVar} :)
But of course, that failed too. But the variable itself is set correctly.
This fails too, whether I use the full expression, or the new variable:
(:if equal "{$:TempVar}" "Profile-Data.HEdelman" :)
revealing the if conditional before it processes:
(:if equal "Profile-Data.{Members/Hosts$:201504}" "Profile-Data.HEdelman" :)
(:if false:)
TempVar:Profile-Data.{Members/Hosts$:{(ftime "%Y%m")}}
(:if:)
Still sets the variable.
