Allow Template variables to have types

XMLWordPrintable

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      When creating a template it would be good to be able to specify field types aswell.

      e.g.
      @foo|textfield(50)@
      @foo|textarea(5,20)@
      @foo|select(foo,bar,baz)@
      @foo|radio(foo,bar,baz)@
      @foo|check(foo,bar,baz)@

      or even
      @foo|select(space_name)@
      To allow you to choose from a list of pages in a space

            In the vein of template enhancements:

            • It would be nice to be able to pre-fill in text fields, e.g. give them a default/starting value.
            • I would love to have the ability to set a table row (perhaps even bulleted list) as a repeatable element. e.g. there would be a button on the fill in variable screen to add another row to the table with the same fields. So that users could add as many items from that screen as possible.

            OK - I managed to work this into 1.0, with some caveats.

            You get list(foo,bar,baz) and textarea(5,10) - but no checkboxes or radio boxes yet.

            Still, it's a start!

            Cheers,
            Mike
