The $If -topictree parameter is used to generate a list of Find Answers topics in a tree format only if additional topics exist. It is embedded within a $Repeat -topictree(findanswers)$ command to produce a tree structure of topics, and if no sub-level topics exist it will avoid blank lines.
Example:
$repeat -topictree(findanswer)$
$value -topic(name)$
$value -topic(messagecount)$
$if -topictree(findanswer)$
$repeat -topictree(findanswer)$
$value -topic(name)$
$value -topic(messagecount)$
