CookieHelper in a macro?

Vic Carter asked on April 21, 2014 11:24

I am using this to do some localization of static text on some shared components in a couple of my sites. I need to apply this to a custom query.

CookieHelper.GetValue("CMSPreferredCulture")

I tried using:

{%CookieHelper.GetValue("CMSPreferredCulture")%}

in the WHERE condition, but it keeps coming up blank. Figuring I am missing a reference in the string. Any suggestions? This is what I am going for:

DocumentCulture = {%CookieHelper.GetValue("CMSPreferredCulture")%}

Thanks in advance.

My apologies. I have found the correct syntax:

DocumentCulture = '{@CMSPreferredCulture@}'

Hope this can help someone else.

As a follow up, I am using a custom layout to do this on other webparts. The one in question didn't need this functionality for anything else so I am attempting to just use the WHERE condition setting. If all else fails I can just create a layout.

Just an FYI.

Hello,

Please use this one instead {% Cookies.GetValue("CMSPreferredCulture") |(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}.

Best regards,
