[Radiant] Processing unrelated nested Radius tags
Hello, I'm trying to process one radius tag inside another. For example, one tag retrieves a photo name such as "Dave.jpg" and sticks it into the page_attachments tag for an image: The resulting HTML output is... ... but the problem is the tag itself is never processed, so the photo does not appear on the screen. I'm guessing this is a tag scope issue. Any help?

My goal was to have a person's name in the DB generate a filename that I could pass to the page_attachments tag to grab. Example: David Piehler -> david_piehler.jpg -> As you've said though, something like this is not possible due to the way Radius tags are parsed. Thanks for clarifying this. I've since taken a more heavy-handed approach to solve it. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@lists.radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant

However, the page_attachments tags are currently not structured to support this. If they were, it might look like this: david_piehler.jpg Obviously, you would use some of your own tags to generate the name.
