collective.easytemplate is a Plone add-on targetted for the end users who need automatic text snippets in their Kupu content. collective.easytemplate allows safe template tags inside Kupu editable text or any user editable HTML. This enables automatic content generation inside user editable HTML pages.
Motivation
Plone lacks out of the box support to custom tags for content editors to play with.
Use cases
The orignal use case was help maintaining the vast number of cross-reference link lists on course modules pages.
Possible other use cases are
- Folder list snippets on a page
- Dynamic images
- Generated tables
Usage
Use content type "Templated Document" whenever you want to use template tags in Kupu content.
If you get errors in your template code, you can toggle on "Catch errors" on Template schemata and view detailed exception tracebacks in Zope log.
