Re: [xwiki-users] Defining a macro for the confluence syntax

Hello Vincent, Reading the content. I can't explain why this one works but I presume there's a switch internally to it that automatically converts the html macro into a closing html macro (and indeed, it's nonsense to nest html). Yes, parameters reading (single and multiple) worked fine (but they need escaping). I tried a tick more formally to see if I could make a macro with content and failed. Here's how. Page: {testmacro} this is the content {testmacro} Macro: (Tools.TestMacro, object XWiki.WikiMacroClass) id: testmacro inline: no (I tried yes too, with inlined macro in the page) visibility: global macro content type: optional macro code: testMacroStart{{velocity}}$!xcontext.macro.content{{/velocity}}testMacroEnd The resulting page gives: testMacroStarttestMacroEnd this is the content testMacroStarttestMacroEnd I tried to adjust the content type to mandatory but this bragged... having no content! If macro content was thinkable, then there should be somewhere in the grammar a different mark for start and end macro or? I don't see the latter. Since, according to https://developer.atlassian.com/confdev/tutorials/macro-tutorials-for-confl…, "there are three available body types for macros: PLAIN_TEXT, RICH_TEXT, and NONE. ", I suppose the only solution is to make the scanner read the macro content type and fork differently if mandatory (and optional?) or no content type. Maybe these two levels are a bit far from each other... Paul
