Actually I've managed to resolve this issue. The extension uses the
following code in the radius tag
tag 'results:each' do |tag|
tag.locals.results.collect do |result|
tag.locals.page = result
tag.expand
end.join("\n")
end
the variable tag.locals.page conflicts with the page object, so
changing to tag.locals.foundpage solves the problem.
I also had to change the 'results:each:excerpt' to get the excerpt
like this
tag.locals.results.excerpt_for(content, tag.locals.foundpage.class)
as excerpt_for needs to know what class it is working on.
Now all I need to do is write a custom link and title tag for the
radius tags and I'm sorted.
