Is there a way to set variables inside an If condition in Robot Framework?

I've tried this to increment the variable after, but it didn't work

Run Keyword If    '${state}'=='True'    Run Keywords    Click Element 
   xpath=//button[@overflow]  
...    AND Click Element    css=#stack  
...    ${i} Set Variable    1  
...    AND FOR ${item} IN ${items}  
            Log    ${item}
            Log    ${i}
            ${i}    Set Variable    ${i} + 1
           END

You should remove the Run Keywords and replace it with a user keyword in which you can use FOR loop and you could increment your variable like ${i} Evaluate ${i}+1. You could also return ${i} or anything else and use its value in the test later on.

*** Test Cases ***
Test
    ${i}=    Run Keyword If    'True'=='True'    My logic
    Log    ${i}

*** Keyword ***
My Logic
    Log     xpath=//button[@overflow]  
    Log     css=#stack  
    ${i}    Set Variable    1
    FOR    ${item}    IN   item1    item2
        Log    ${item}
        Log    ${i}
        ${i}    Evaluate    ${i}+1
    END
    [Return]    ${i}
