Using macros in custom table data

Derek McDonald asked on May 4, 2015 06:40

Hi,

Wondering if it is possible to resolve macros inside a field of a custom table that is a rich test editor. I see there is a button to insert a macro into the field, but when I view the data using a transformation is just shows the macro expression not the value it should resolve to.

Thanks in advance for any assistance in this matter

Hello,

Within a transformation you need to call the MacroResolver.Resolve() method to resolve macros like:

<%# CMS.MacroEngine.MacroResolver.Resolve(Eval("YouField").ToString()) %>

Best regards,
