Hi,
Here is an example that illustrates your problem, in a simplified case
(using an 'AppWithinMinutes.String' object):
{{velocity}}
This is done with a displayer:
{{{
$doc.getObject('AppWithinMinutes.String').shortText
}}}
This is the raw value of the property:
$doc.getObject('AppWithinMinutes.String').getProperty('shortText').value
{{/velocity}}
Basically, when you are doing $n.description you are doing
$doc.display('description', $n) which renders the output based on the
default displayer.
To test this, you can do:
{{velocity}}
{{{
$doc.getObject('AppWithinMinutes.String').shortText
}}}
{{velocity}}
and see the output (which prints the value literally with wiki='false' and
which was not what you were expecting to see):
{{html clean="false" wiki="false"}}[[link>>Main.WebHome]]{{/html}}
You just need to be aware of this and decide when you want to use a
displayer and when you actually want the raw value of the object property.
Thanks,
Eduard
