  Hello,
  I have a chunk named "news" and it is my tpl for news generated by Ditto. The problem is that i want to generate date for myself (i need my cuntry language date) so Im using TV called ’date’ with ’unixtime’ Widget. Then in the chunk im trying to call my snippet but all of the code is printing on the screen. I think this may be a problem with the parsing sequence but i dont know how to workaround this.
  This is my chunk:
  

  <div class="news_short">
  					<div class="news_name"><a href="[+alias+].html"><h2>[+title+]</h2></a></div>
  					<div class="news_date">[!makeDate? &time=`[+date+]` !]</div>
                                          <div class="news_short_content">[+introtext+]</div>
                                          <div class="news_more"><a href="[+alias+]">więcej...</a></div>
  				</div>

  
  And this is a sample result:
  

  
  Sample title
  [!makeDate? &time=`1248101274` !]
  Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since
  

  Thanks for help.

  make sure that you aren’t using tinymce for the content. either turn it off or click the ’html’ button and paste it in that way. i think that messes up the way it gets parsed. i seem to remember having that same problem.

  Hi,
  
  try calling it cached inside the tpl-chunk: [[makeDate? &time=`[+date+]` ]] and the Ditto-call uncached
