tpl @CODE syntax, not working

I have gotten it working as well on a base install of 9.6.3, so it must be something else I’m doing wrong. I’ll keep at it. Thanks for all the help!

Yes, but my CODE does have a template variable (longtitle)! Wah. That all the links on the Ditto home page are broken (notably the bug report link) and the fact that that site hasn’t been updated in 2 years bodes poorly for this situation.

No, technically longtitle is not actually a template variable, it’s a resource field. The resource fields (pagetitle, longtitle, alias, etc.) are sometimes referred to as TVs because they share the same kind of tag, but they shouldn’t be. Template variables are *user-created* custom resource fields.

Are you using PHx on the site you are having problems with? That will parse the placeholder inside the @CODE string, causing Ditto to report that there are no placeholders in &tpl. I only just worked this out for myself, it had been driving me nuts!

Yes, I am using PhX, extensively, on this site. Is there a workaround? Is there even a ditto developer anymore?

I haven’t found a workaround yet, unfortunately. I would love to find one though, as I also use PHx from time to time.

I encountered this error and fixed it. My chunk did not have any placeholders in it. Once i included [+pagetitle+] it suddenly start working.

I know this thread is old but still it *might* help someone out there.
