Issue on Filtering with Rules for Field After Create a Page with IFTTT Integration Rules

[Andres Mello]

When there is a reference to a form field as "[entry.fieldname]" in Filter to apply on a field on Confiforms Rules for Field Macro to be rendered on a new page created with IFTTT Integration Rules it is removing this entry "[entry.fieldname]" from the macro rendered on the new new page . Looks that when creating the new page it is trying to render the value currently for the field and not the reference to the field itself.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Add to IFTTT Integration Rules macro selecting Create a Page on an existing page.
2. Create a form on the page under IFTTT Integration Rules added on step #1.
3. Define field1 and field2.
4.Add Rules for Field Definition for field2 applying a filter "field2:[entry.field1]" for example.
5. Make the action to create a new page as defined on IFTTT Integration Rules step #1.
6. Check Rules for Field Definition for field2 on the new created page. Filter to apply on a field shows only the first part of the sentence as "field2:".

These expression are not removed but evaluated agains the record used to create a page. This is how ConfiForms works.

You can use asEntryRef function to ensure the evaluation agains the record produces [entry.field_name] expressions in the resulted page https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Virtual+functions
