Escaping Directives in Confiforms

[Okkan Coban]

Hi everyone,

i need a command for escaping directives like in vlt ('\'). I want to use the Confiforms ifttt-macro and create a new page. No big deal, but i also want to give directives without rendering to a value.

For exampel:

Form field defnition (simple Text): Field name=myField.

Input into 'myField'='Hello World'

I want to give the directive [entry.myField.escapeJSON] as '[entry.myField.escapeJSON]' and not getting render into 'Hello World'

I tried a lot like '<', '{', '\' etc. but nothing fits.

I can use a workaround with dummy-fields, but a common command would be great.

Thanks

Why do you need dummy fields?

Not sure I get the message about the escapeJSON function.. does it malfunction for you?

No malfunction. escapeJSON was just an exampel and is not nesassary.

In my case:

I got a form (form A), witch creates a page, witch contains an other form (form B) but same form field names and i want to give directives for the created page.

An exampel for my case:

I want to create placeholder in 'form B' for values of 'form B' but i cant give directives like [entry.id] or [entry.myField] without put the value of the 'form a'.

i would like to write something in 'form A' like '\[entry.myField]' to get '[entry.myField]' in 'form b'. but my result is '\ HelloWorld'.

Sorry, this sounds too complicated to me... may be someone else could help

I just cannot connect creation of the pages, different forms, something around \ and escapeJSON stuff

solved: i searched something like the virtual funktion "asEntryRef(REF_TO_ENTRY)" (https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Virtual+functions).

probably i described my problem a little to complicated :D
