Confiforms ifttt create page action and velocity

[Volker Wulf]

Hello, I want to use velocity to create the page body with my ifttt action. But unfortunately the newly created page contains the velocity source code,  and does not get rendered. But when I wrap the source code in a NoFormat macro, the velocity code gets rendered. A simple example:

This definition

ends up as source code on the page as

But with this definition

velocity is rendered


I thought the body of the ifttt create page action is always rendered as velocity, according to this https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/IFTTT+macro+body+evaluates+as+Velocity+template

Kind regards
Volker

Hi

Consider placing a PlainView, with an enabled parameter to process it’s contents as a Velocity template, inside the ConfiForms IFTTT macro

Hi

With this trick I was able to add the velocity code. For the page reader it looks fine now, only the page editor has to handle the in my case unused plain view. I think that is doable ;-).

After some further experimenting I found that it is the quotes that cause the problem.

Thanks
