Patrick,
I use a whole bunch of immediate substitutions from guibuttons (actually
links) on edit forms like this:
$GUIButtons['attach'] = array(1101, 'Uploads:{$Group}/','','','
[Uploads:]');
or these:
$GUIButtons['datestamp'] = array(1405, '', '', '($CustomDate)',' [date
stamp] ');
$GUIButtons['authordatestamp'] = array(1406, '', '', '($Author -
$CustomDate)',' [author date stamp] ');
..and they're very popular.
Intuitively, I would think that some kind of call from
GroupName.Template.php would be the place for immediate substitution of
template variables, though I'm not sure how it would get wired up.
immediateSubstitution("varname","value");
or in OO
templatepage->immediatesubstitution("varname","value");
??
BTW my new webhost looks really good. I'm getting a 40% performance
improvement, and service seems as solid as a rock. Now I'm totally
chomping at the bit to employ your new features (having finally upgraded
from 2.1.27).
All the best,
- Henrik

Regarding http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/EditTemplates
Is it possible to automatically update dates, to that the imported text
contains the current date (as text, not as a variable).
So for example if creating a page today, I would like the title, as
imported from the template, to have in the edit textbox
!!!!Farmers' Market news for April 10, 2008
Where the date is written in as clear text from the template.
At present I don't think there's a way to do this. I've been
thinking about ways to have "immediate substitutions" like
this done, but haven't come up with anything I particularly
like yet (which is why we don't have it).
