    The exclamation mark has to do with caching.

    Adding in the exclamation mark will make sure the snippets are called uncached, which indeed should be the case for the register/login snippets wink

    In the SVN docs it’s mentioned to the least (bottom-ish), Bobs guides aint loading for me now but I think he mentions it always.

      D’oh, the ! means don’t cache. I should have realised that from the old Evo days.

      Whilst on that subject, I take it the old evil of alternating cached/uncached snippet calls is no longer necessary?

      Thanks Mark, didn’t see your reply until i posted, for some reason didn’t show up in ’show new replies to your posts’.

        Correct; true nested, source order parsing is one of the main reasons Revolution was developed. And any element can be marked uncacheable now.
