Template Variables - oh, dear lord, why doesn't any tutorial work the 1st time?

And if you want the little "Edit" buttons, make sure to call the TVs with the [*#...*] syntax. Even if you don’t, they’ll still be available for editing from the QuickEdit menu bar.

YAAYYYYY!!!

Thanks so much!

BTW, I’ve been making myself "tutorial" notes in a text file as I do these different things (like playing with MAMP and MODx features). Do I need to get someone’s permission to upload the things I’ve learned to the Wiki?

And as for your question in the subject, from my experience I would say it’s usually because we don’t read it right the first time (and sometimes not even the third or fourth time)
