This is not a support forum. Please ask support questions on the
appropriate mailing list.
But your logic boils down to:
if(true) echo "here1"; else <empty expression>;
if(true) echo "here2";
if(true) echo "here3";
else if(true) echo "here4";
In the first part you don't have anything in your else clause as you
never started a block using {...} so the expression ends with the end
of the PHP block.
In the second part the else expression only gets evaluated if the if
condition was false. It doesn't matter that the condition after the
else happens to be true, it won't be evaluated.
