I am having 2 shortcode issues;
Issue 1
I am trying to merge a text field that has the entered name and address field but the address is not showing up
where 44 is the name and 45 is the address field(s)
[44] - [45]
this only returns "John Doe -"
no address
Issue 2
Trying to show a field value only if a radio button has a certain option ticked
[28][if 28 equals="Window"] - [29][/if 28][if 28 equals="Door"] - [30][/if 28]
the shortcodes logic is not being evaulated the only shortcodes working are the non logic ones.

The first issue I see is that you are not concatenating the fields. The proper way to concatenate two fields with a dash between them is [44]+"-"+[45]

For issue 2, is this being evaluated on a live form or in a view where entries have been populated?
@Bobby Clapp its in the default value field for a textbox
To me that sounds like the conditional values are attempted at being evaluated live then based on the radio in the same form. You're going to have to introduce some javascript here I think. The field values in the same form cannot be evaluated via the conditional shortcode until they have been saved. You'll need some javascript to perform the "live" conditional checks. A more "conditional" version of this:

When the radio value "changes", do something and populate other field values.
