Macros

I've got a web part that displays HTML links using context macros and a custom macro in its Text property.

THESE WORK
<p><a href="/Kentico/Groups/{%CommunityContext.CurrentGroup.GroupName%}">Pages</a> <br />

The context macros work fine but when it comes to my custom macros it goes through the code and brings back the result of my macro but somehow it gets lost along the way and that link becomes a blank href .

<a href="">Pages</a><br />

Can anyone assist please

RE:Macros

Hello,

Could you please make sure that you set the match property of boolean type to true in the code of the custom macro, for example:


   switch (expression.ToLower())
   {
      case "currenttime":
        // match needs to be set to true
        match = true;
        result = DateTime.Now.ToString();
        break;
   }
   return result;
}

If it does not help, could you please post here the code of the custom macro? Thank you.

Best regards,
Michal Legen
