Hi Yaron,
I am on SF 1.4.1, SMW 1.3, MW 1.13.0
The free text sentence is where I thought it should be in the generated
wikitext :
{{X
...
}}
My other thoughts are [[Top tip::Eat well and sleep well]]
{{Y
...
}}
so I can't see why it doesn't sit in the flow of the document but nor can I
see how to control it's position properly. Is this what I should be doing
(in principle) to pick up any extra article content - for example, to manage
content added via 'edit' to a page which also contains form generated
content' ?
Many thanks
Alex
