How to use multiple arguments in an if statement with Liquid

Question

I want to use an if statement in Liquid with multiple conditionals. Something like:

{% if (include.featured == "true" and product.featured == "true") or (include.featured == "false" and product.featured == "false") %}

Multiple conditionals don't seem to work. Have I got the syntax wrong or can Liquid not handle this sort of if statement?

Solution

Another way you can condense this is to combine else if statements, and booleans don't necessarily need the "==" when evaluating true:

{% if include.featured and product.featured %}
      {% assign test = true %}
{% elsif include.featured == false and product.featured == false %}
      {% assign test = false %}
{% endif %}

elseif is spelled elsif for jekyll - otherwise this was helpful to me.
