If statements not working on custom page

[xgc ottomatic]

Please Help! I am trying to create a custom navbar that can be used across the many styles on my site, which can be edited in one place, rather than needing to change the navbar template in each style. So far I have made a XML product that creates a custom template in each style, then with resources found on this very helpful site, a plugin that fetches that custom template and inserts it into the navbar template with the $custom_template hook. This all works perfectly, but when the website loads the page it completely misses the if statements contained in the quick links, search button, and log out links. The code is loading correctly into the custom template, so the XML product is working correctly, also if the code is inserted manually into the navbar template it functions correctly. With 20 plus styles it is very time consuming to physically edit the navbar template each time we add a new area or when the vb updates make changes to that template. The site is http://www.xiledgaming.com it is very large with many different areas requiring more than the standard vb navbar offers. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you in advance!
