    this is an odd problem...

    for some-reason the FirstChildRedirct isn’t always working. - it does some of the time but not all of the time, and i can’t quite work out for what reason it isn’t working.

    anyone else encountered a problem with FirstChildRedirect?

      ok - it was because the pages were caching... so i turned that off and it’s ok!!! silly me,.

        Always call it uncached or it won’t work. [!FirstChildRedirect!]

          I have an odd problem with FirstChildRedirect. If I use [!FirstChildRedirect!], I get that same text displayed on the web page as though it did not get parsed. Using Evo 1.02. If however I use [[FirstChildRedirect]] then it works fine and of course I leave it like that but I dont understand why it did not get parsed with the uncached code.
